Because Lazy Lawn can be used in a wide variety of
applications, the installation techniques will vary. There are a number
of basic principals which should always be followed.
- Being a flexible product, it is important that the
base on which Lazy Lawn is to be laid is of a good standard. Any
depressions or lumps will be reflected in your lawn. As your Lazy Lawn
should last you up to 20 years it is important that your base should
also stand the test of time.
- We recommend that a base of at least 30mm up to 80mm (depending
on the application of your Lazy Lawn) of road base or similar
compactable material be used. This should then be screed of with crushed
dust or similar to obtain a flat and even base. N.B. Be sure to allow
for drainage.
- As your Lazy Lawn comes in a width of 3.66 m (12ft), work out
which way best suits your application. Remember with 19mm product that
it runs a certain direction and is best viewed looking into the pile.
Lay the lawn out into the desired position, remembering that you will
need to match one stitch line up parallel with another to create a neat
join. When in final position fold back the edges and run a line of tape,
the length of the join, secure the tape, then with a glue trowel apply
the glue to tape then when the glue is ready fold the lawn back down and
hand tease the joins together starting from the middle and going out to
the sides. Now trim with a sharp blade all edges where required.
- Your lawn should now be sanded. The sand is what keeps the lawn
in place and keeps the fibers upright. Fine sand should be worked into
the pile to around 5mm from the surface. Dried sand is best as it will
drop into the pile. However if the sand is wet spread and allow to dry
then work into the pile. To work the sand into the pile use a broom or
blower.
Please Note:
Your lawn may have been rolled up for many months during transit
so when first laid there may be the appearance of 'ribs' in the pile.
These will eventually drop out as the lawn settles. Your lawn can take
up to 3 months to fully settle. To clean any debris off your lawn, Lazy
Lawn recommends a blower/vac to blow the debris away. Now you can sit
back and enjoy your lawn for the next 15 years or so.
