One of the perks of installing an artificial lawn is that you avoid many of the maintenance hassles that are common with natural grass lawns. You no longer need to worry about mowing your lawn on a regular basis, watering it several times a week or seeding and fertilizing the lawn to keep it looking healthy. An artificial turf lawn will look great without most of the maintenance that goes into a real grass lawn.

But this doesn’t mean that some maintenance won’t help your synthetic lawn to last and look great. Performing some monthly maintenance can go a long way in reducing the possibility that you artificial grass lawn will incur damage over the years or start to look worn or faded. Here are a few things you can do each month:

Clean your lawn with a broom or blower. Removing leaves, dust and other debris with a flexible lawn rake or a high-powered leaf blower will keep organic materials from rotting inside the fibers of your lawn. You can even buy rakes and brooms specially designed for artificial lawns.

Fluff your lawn. If, after a cleaning, your lawn is not standing up straight, you can use a broom or handled brush and sweep against the grain of the lawn. This will make the blades stand straight up again.

When you purchase your artificial turf from companies such as Artificial Turf Supply Commercial & Residential Division, they can give you other maintenance tips recommended by the manufacturer.
