Turf Maintenance Tips for Restoring Your Artificial Grass Lawn After Summer
Your artificial turf lawn sees the most activity during the summer season. Blue skies and sunny days are typically accompanied by grilling sessions, water balloon fights, games, and much more summer fun. Once autumn rolls in, however, your yard might have a head start on looking like a Halloween horror.
With high foot traffic from frolicking in the summer breeze, your turf is likely to show signs of matting, making your yard look worse for wear. There may also be a distinct new odor wafting up from beneath the lawn that a quick rinse just doesn’t seem to wash away. If your artificial turf lawn needs turf maintenance this fall, here are a few ways to get your landscape back to its prime.
Rebloom Turf Blades
Excessive use of your turf can cause the blades to become matted over the course of several months. Heavy lawn furniture like pop-up pools, grills, and picnic tables may also have left dents in your lawn after sitting outside during summer.
Once these items are tucked away for the season, you may want to consider giving your turf a face-lift to return it to its original push look. Getting your blades back to their original upright position is simple with the use of tools like a turf groomer or synthetic bristle brush. Using your broom or rake, cross-brush your synthetic grass to counteract matting and help restore its appearance. Brush against the grain to get the best full look.
Top Up Infill
Another reason why your blades might not be standing at attention like before is that your artificial turf’s infill needs a top-off. Infill not only keeps your grass blades standing straight; it also gives your yard a springy feel which provides a more comfortable experience when walking or playing on your turf.
Infill compaction can lead to more serious problems like drainage issues, debris clutter, and bacterial buildup. Stay ahead of these issues with TurFresh’s scheduled artificial grass maintenance services and turf cleaning products that can be tailored to your schedule. Call us out as often as every month or as little as once a year. Our experienced technicians will provide a detailed deep clean, including an infill top-up, that leaves your lawn at its freshest.
Eliminate Lingering Odors
After a summer filled with all kinds of fun, those activities may have left behind more than just a happy memory. While you may want to keep those days in your mind’s eye, you probably don’t want the lingering smells to stay in your nose.
TurFresh’s BioS+ turf deodorizer uses natural enzymes produced by ammonia-eating bacteria to capture and neutralize odors. Formulated to target strong odors but remain safe enough for friends, family, and pets, everyone can immediately jump back into using their lawn for the rest of the fall.
