Begin by mapping out the turf area and considering the impact it will have aesthetically and functionally within the surrounding landscape. Take note of obstacles like trees, flower beds, curved edges, or sprinklers that need to be moved or worked around. With your new lawn, you won’t need to water regularly, but many opt to keep a sprinkler head or two functioning to easily provide a quick spritz to cool off the turf on those hot days.

Carefully measure the square feet of the design before placing the order for your fake grass. Turf pieces from different batches can have a slightly different hue, so it’s essential to order the correct amount first to prevent any patching.
