Frequently Asked Questions
How long does synthetic turf last?
High-quality synthetic turf can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years depending on usage, exposure to UV rays and how well it is maintained. Modern synthetic products are designed to withstand harsh weather, heavy foot traffic and pets, with strong backing materials and excellent drainage. Regular cleaning, brushing and removing debris helps extend its lifespan. Compared to natural turf, which can wear out or die off in certain areas, synthetic turf remains consistent year-round.
What is the best time of year to lay new turf?
Natural turf is best installed in spring or early autumn when temperatures are mild and rainfall is more frequent, allowing roots to establish quickly. Winter installation can still work but may take longer for the turf to take hold. Summer installation is possible but requires more watering and close monitoring during the early weeks. Synthetic turf, on the other hand, can be installed at any time of the year because it doesn’t rely on soil temperature or seasonal growth patterns.
How do I prepare my yard for new turf?
Proper preparation is key for long-lasting results. Start by removing old grass, weeds, rocks and debris from the area. Level the ground, improve the soil with quality underlay or topsoil, and address any drainage issues to prevent future pooling or patchiness. Compact the base to create a smooth, stable surface before laying natural or synthetic turf. Good preparation ensures even growth for natural lawns and prevents ripples or sinking spots for synthetic installations.

Refresh Your Yard
Choosing between natural and synthetic turf depends on how you use your yard and how much maintenance you want long-term. Natural turf provides a soft, traditional look and improves soil health, while synthetic turf delivers consistent greenery without mowing, watering or fertilising. Both options require proper preparation, including ground levelling, soil improvement, weed control and drainage planning to ensure long-lasting results.
Once installed, new turf can dramatically improve street appeal, create safer play areas for children, and make outdoor entertaining areas more usable throughout the year. With modern materials and careful installation, turf solutions can refresh your entire backyard without a full renovation.
