Why Spring is the Perfect Time for Turf Maintenance

After a long winter—whether it’s been mild or stormy—your artificial turf has seen it all: fallen leaves, built-up debris, pet messes, and a season’s worth of foot traffic. Spring is the ideal time to hit the refresh button on your outdoor space and give your turf a little well-deserved attention.

Why now? Because cleaning and grooming your turf before summer hits helps restore its look, function, and longevity just in time for BBQs, backyard hangs, and pool days.

Your Spring Turf Tune-Up Checklist

Here’s how to bring your lawn back to life with just a few simple steps:

1. Clear the Surface

Start by removing leaves, twigs, and loose debris using a plastic rake or leaf blower. This helps improve drainage and stops mold or mildew from taking hold. Don’t forget to check under furniture and along edges!

2. Brush the Turf

A quick brushing fluffs up the blades and helps your turf bounce back after being flattened. Use a stiff broom or a turf-specific brush and move in multiple directions to restore that lush, upright look.

3. Rinse and Refresh

Spring pollen, pet waste, and winter grime can dull your turf’s appearance. Hose down your turf to remove dust and dirt. For tough stains or pet odors, use a gentle, turf-safe cleaner.

4. Check the Infill

Infill helps your turf feel soft underfoot and ensures proper drainage. Over time, it can shift or compact. Spring is a great time to inspect infill levels and add more if needed, especially in high-traffic zones.

5. Edge and Seam Inspection

Inspect the edges and seams of your turf for any separation or lifting. Catching small issues now can prevent bigger (and more expensive) repairs later.

Spring cleaning shouldn’t stop at your floors and closets. With a professional turf maintenance plan, you can ensure your lawn stays clean, fresh, and worry-free year-round.
