Natural grass installation is the process of installing natural grass on a lawn or sports field. This process involves several steps, including soil preparation, grass selection, and installation.
Soil preparation is an important step in natural grass installation as it ensures that the grass has a healthy growing environment. This process involves removing any existing grass, weeds, or debris from the area where the grass will be installed. The soil is then tilled and leveled to create a smooth surface for the grass to grow on.
Grass selection is also an important step in natural grass installation. Different types of grass have different growing requirements and are suited for different climates and soil types. Some common grass types used in natural grass installation include Kikuyu grass, Buffalo grass, and LM Berea grass.
Once the soil is prepared and the grass type has been selected, the grass can be installed. The most common method of natural grass installation is through sodding, which involves laying pre-grown rolls of grass on the prepared soil. Another method is through seeding, which involves spreading seeds on the prepared soil and allowing the grass to grow from the ground up. We focus on the first option for it is instant – giving homeowners a new look in a day or so.
After the grass has been installed, it is important to properly maintain it to ensure that it stays healthy and looks its best. This includes regular watering, fertilization, and mowing.
Natural grass installation is a popular option for homeowners, sports fields, and parks. It provides a natural and aesthetically pleasing look to outdoor spaces while also providing numerous environmental benefits such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving air quality.
