Synthetic Turf is very durable and long lasting however if not maintained or cared for damage can occur to the synthetic turf. Some common reason for damage to artificial turf are:
1. Synthetic turf has been flattened: Artificial turf is similar to carpet if you leave a heavy object on it for to long (and in the same place) it will cause the yarn to flatten over time. We suggest that you do move around heavy furniture, trampolines etc that you may leave on the turf. If you are looking at repairing this issue we suggest you use a hard bristle brush to brush up the fibres.
2. Edges have been pulled up by your pet: While every pet is different we always recommend that you place additional nails and sand infill along the edges this will help weigh down the synthetic turf to prevent your pet pulling it up.
3. Ripped area: this one is much more difficult to repair: If there is a small clean rip in the artificial turf you can look at pulling up the artificial turf and placing some joining tape near the rip, and then re-laying the synthetic turf however if it is a large rip, you may need to look at replacing the whole area. Many people ask why you cant just cut out the area and replace that section. You can look at doing this however while you may be able to have the same artificial turf style the batch number between the two artificial turf sections will be different and you will see a variation in shades between the turf sections
4. Damage completed by oil spills etc: Again this is a difficult one to repair, you will need to look at replacing the whole artificial turf in this area (not just the patch which is damaged). People do ask whether they can just cut out the area and replace that section however while you may be able to have the same artificial turf style the batch number between the two artificial turf sections will be different and will see a variation in shades between the artificial turf sections
