Artificial turf is a long term investment. But no matter how durable the product is, its ability to hold up well over time depends on the skill of the crew installing it. As a homeowner, you want to make sure the artificial grass installer you choose is both reputable and knowledgeable. That will ensure that the grass you selected will perform as beautifully and as long as you expect.
Always research an artificial grass installer thoroughly before signing a purchase agreement or contract.
One of the best ways to find out about a company is to read testimonials posted on their web page, their Facebook page, and online review sites like Yelp. Landscaping companies encourage their customers to post reviews and ratings regarding the service they received.
Ask friends and neighbors who they used for their own artificial grass installation. Did they receive exceptional service? Take a look at their lawn and find out for yourself how well constructed it is. Have they had any problems?
Also, ask around about any particular installation companies that should be avoided. If a neighbor has used a company you are interested in, ask them.
Once you have found a few companies to choose from, dig deeper.
Because artificial turf can last for over 20 years, it is a long term investment in your home – an asset, like adding a new roof or a swimming pool. Choosing superior quality grass is essential, but proper professional installation is equally essential in determining how well your grass stands up over the years. Nothing takes the place of experience, skill, and attention to detail.
While affordability is always important, skimping on installation could cost you more in the long run, in problems and disappointment. The most affordable choice is the one that ensures you will receive all of the benefits your artificial grass has to over.
