This week we are back with another "how to" video and this topic comes highly requested from our followers - How to Install Synthetic Turf!

We are installing turf a 42' x 24' area that will eventually be the kid's playground! While we've installed turf many many times before, this project brings on new challenges such as dealing with frozen chip and snow, irrigation being laid underneath the turf for a splash pad like playground area and turf butting up against our boulder retaining wall.

If you're looking for a step by step tutorial on how to make your turf install go seamlessly and look great, you've landed on the right video!
