    It’s awesome you take time to look for window reflections before installing the grass. We just spent $7000 on artificial grass in our backyard and had no idea window reflection damages the grass. The installers told us when they were more than halfway done. When the sales person came to give us a quote he didn’t mention it at all. Now we are looking in to films for four windows to prevent the reflection.

      Sorry to hear your experience. Turf burn is more common than you think.

    Great video, thank you. Curious why you did not install a permeable weed mat barrier on top of the native soil (before adding the blended borrow).

    Very informative and put together video and how to but d o only people with square/rectangular yards get fake grass ? Our yard is is mostly pathways. Pool/Hot tub gezebo/fire pit area. Not some simple square. Like to see them installs.

    Great tutorial video. 3 questions.
    What glue/adhesive were you using?
    Since I am in Louisiana we have VERY hot sun. Any tips on choosing turf that will stay cooler?
    Also a unique Louisiana issue. Any special tips on drainage and maintaining a permeable surface to handle our periodic monsoon rains. I have "French drains" in lots of areas of my yard. Will all artificial turfs allow water to flow fast enough to avoid standing water issues? or are there specific things I should look for when choosing my turf?
    Thanks again. You're a great teacher! Props... ***

    Nice video. I’m about to start my install in my approx 250 sqft patio. There used to be small white rocks in my patio and it currently has two drains. It’s those green grates that pop up. Do I get rid of that draining system or use them?

      There are different opinions on this. We prefer not to use weed barrier for projects that have pets.

    Is there no need for a weed barrier fabric under the 4” of base material?
