I have been asked to quote for an area of artifical grass and i was wondering if any of you have done any and how you went about laying it, its mainly how you have secured it on the edges an along the joints, i have done some in the past and it was quite succesful but would like to hear how others do it/ have done it.

Thank, william.

Turf cut existing to about three inches 20mm scalp levelled and compacted finish with 5mm to dust compacted nice and smooth. Taper all edges with a trowel so the edges bend downwards. Nearly all lawns are fixed with 4 inch nails at 1ft spacings. Kiln dried sand applied to area and brushed in against pile to make it stand up a blower is also helpful to force the sand down to the base of the pile. Don't forget Myles membrane beneath the turf to stop ant chance of weed growth. Jointing tape is supplied by supplier of turf. Hope that helps. Cheers Carl:thumbup1:
