Spring & Summer Maintenance

As temperatures rise and you spend more time outdoors, keep your turf looking its best by:

• Debris removal – Use a leaf blower or soft-bristle broom to clear leaves, twigs, and litter weekly.
• Brushing – Gently brush the blades to lift fibers and prevent matting.
• Hose rinsing – Spray down turf to remove pollen, dust, and small particles.
• Seam & edge checks – Inspect for loose seams or edges and secure with joining tape or adhesive.

Fall & Winter Protection

Cooler months bring unique challenges. To safeguard your lawn:

• Leaf clearing – Remove fallen leaves promptly to prevent moisture buildup and staining.
• Debris checks – Clear any branches or debris from winter storms.
• Gentle brushing – Lightly brush to keep fibers upright after snowfall.
• Drainage care – Ensure surrounding hardscape drains properly to avoid standing water.

Pet & High-Traffic Cleaning

Areas used by pets and children may need more frequent cleaning:

• Weekly rinses – Hose down heavily used zones to remove spills and odors.
• Turf cleaner – Apply a non-toxic synthetic turf cleaner every 1–2 weeks.
• Infill inspection – Check and replenish infill to maintain cushioning and drainage.
