Artificial Turf Installation FAQs
Does artificial turf get hot in summer?
Most artificial turf surfaces feel warmer than natural grass in strong sun, especially in darker
colours. Installers can explain how colour choice, shading and hose down routines can help manage
this, particularly in play areas where kids use the space during hot days.
How long does artificial turf last?
Lifespan depends on product quality, how much traffic the area gets and how well the surface and
base are installed. Many products can last a number of years with basic care. Your installer can
talk through realistic expectations for your yard and household use.
Is artificial turf suitable for pets?
Many households use artificial turf with dogs and other pets. Infill type, drainage and cleaning
routines all matter though. When you post your job, mention the type and number of pets so the
installer can suggest products that are easier to maintain and clean.
Can artificial turf be installed over existing concrete?
Some products can be laid over concrete with suitable preparation and drainage planning. In other
cases it is better to remove or adjust surfaces first. Photos of the area help tradies advise
what is practical and what will feel comfortable underfoot.
