Keep your artificial grass looking its best all year round with our professional cleaning and maintenance service, designed to restore freshness, improve drainage, and extend the life of your lawn.
When installers have laid your artificial grass, it’s common to see them using some form of motorised ‘powerbrush’ to fluff up the pile. Initially this is done mostly for aesthetic purposes, as it often comes off the roll very flat. However, power brushing artificial grass is an integral part of maintenance and upkeep.
Not only does it help bring your existing artificial lawn somewhat back to its original state. It also helps to clean, dislodge any garden debris or pet mess and helps prevent moss and spores from settling and taking growth. Power brushing regularly will also help to prevent any pile from becoming matted, tangled or crushed. Which can be a little more commonly seen on longer and softer piles.
One of the most common maintenance requests in artificial grass is chemical cleaning the product itself. Often laid and used for a safe and clean area for dogs and pets, it’s very common for odour from pet mess to develop over an extended period of time. Although artificial grass is free draining on the correct base and many products are PU backed, it is somewhat porous still and is advised to be cleaned whenever its needed.
This is especially important for gardens with young children and pets to keep things clean and safe. We use a pet friendly, artificial grass specific disinfectant and cleaner. Applying a healthy covering across any areas needed.
We power wash grass primarily as a solution for removing heavy moss, growth and areas of dirt or pet mess. It does also have benefits in loosening the pile and simply for a light clean, bringing the product back to its original shine.
Moss can be a handful when it comes to artificial grass. It’s particularly prevalent in gardens that have had product down for an extended period of time. Along with gardens that are shaded, have pet mess that’s been neglected or generally quite natural gardens surrounded by large trees. No matter how well the product has been protected with weed membrane. It’s very common for moss to develop through the surface. Moss prevention generally is difficult but can be advised in details upon a visit.
