Power Brooming: The final step in the installation process is to groom your turf using a power broom. This step could also be done with a push-broom or Grandi rake. However, a motorized power broom makes the step a lot easier. After infilling the turf, the power broom is run against the grain of the turf allowing the infill to fall beneath the thatch line. It also stands up the turf fibers and gives the artificial turf that finished look.

Turf it Right

When I started installing turf, I didn’t know what I was doing. Honestly, there are a few of those first jobs we had that I cringe at when I think back on them.

I haven’t had much help—unless you count Google and Siri and the angry guy on aisle six at Home Depot.
