Artificial grass fitting team

Artificial Grass Installation Riyadh — Base First, Then Laying and Joining

We install artificial grass in villa gardens, rooftops, balconies and small pitches after visiting your site. We prepare the base, drainage and edges first because they decide how long the job lasts, then lay, join the seams and hand over clean. Free inspection in Riyadh and a quote by phone or WhatsApp.

Your checklist before the fitters arrive

Chosen your turf on our artificial grass Riyadh page? Here is what happens next on site, and what saves you time and effort.

Clear the area

Move furniture, planters and toys out of the space, or agree what we move; laying needs an open surface.

Show us the drains

Point out water outlets, entrances and any spot where water gathers; the direction of slope is decided before laying, not after.

Water and power

We need water for cleaning and sometimes a socket for tools, and we plan this ahead for high rooftops.

Doors and thresholds

Tell us about sliding doors and low thresholds so the grass height does not stop them opening.

Shade and lighting

Mark pergolas, shades and garden lights; the grass is cut around them and fixed beneath them as designed.

Other trades first

Finish building, painting and plumbing before laying, since tools and materials leave marks on clean turf.

Surface types

How fitting differs depending on the surface beneath

We do not fit grass the same way on every surface. The base changes between soil, concrete and tiles.

Common set-ups; we confirm the right one with you at the inspection
	Preparation	Note
Garden soil	Remove the top layer and plants, then compacted, levelled aggregate and a weed membrane	A compacted base prevents sinking and puddles after rain and watering
Concrete roof	Sweep, clean and check the drainage slope, with an underlay below the grass where needed	No digging; the focus is drainage so water does not pool beside walls
Tiles or interlock	Check the tiles are firm and fix height differences, then a layer under the grass	Best when tiles are stable and have a fall towards drainage
Play area or nursery	A firmer base and a shock-absorbing layer depending on the use	See playground artificial grass for the types

Specifications vary between products, so we follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the turf you choose.

Base and drainage

Why the ground decides the life of the grass more than the grass itself

Most waves and sinking we see in artificial grass come from what is under it.

Artificial grass is only a surface layer; what carries it is the base. If the base is uneven or does not drain, dips, ripples and smells appear later. So we start with the ground.

Compacted aggregate in gardens

In gardens we remove the top layer of soil and lay suitable aggregate at a thickness set by how the area will be used, then compact it and level it with a slight fall towards the drainage. That base stops sinking under foot traffic and lets water pass through instead of pooling under the turf.

Weed membrane

A permeable membrane over the base reduces real weeds growing up from beneath the turf, though it cannot stop them completely if seeds land from above.

Drainage on roofs

On roofs and balconies it matters that drain outlets stay open and water can run under the grass towards them. We test this by pouring water before laying and correct it if water collects.

Heat in Riyadh

The surface of artificial grass warms up in direct summer sun, so we suggest shading seating areas and thinking about where children play barefoot. We discuss this with you at the inspection.

On site

Three stages you will see on fitting day

Preparing the surface

We sweep, level, check drainage and mark cutting lines before the first roll is opened.

Laying and pile direction

Rolls go down in one direction so colour differences do not show at joints, and are left to settle before cutting.

Fixing and finishing

We fix the edges, join the seams, add light sand where required, then clean the site and brush the pile.

Sequence

How the work runs from preparation to handover

Measure and set the fall
We measure the area and set the drainage fall and the position of edges and seams before any cutting.
Prepare the base
Excavate, lay and compact aggregate in gardens, or sweep and clean on roofs, with a weed membrane where needed.
Roll out the turf
We roll the turf out in one direction, let it settle, then cut with a small allowance at the edges.
Join and fix
Seams are joined with suitable tape and adhesive, and edges fixed according to the surface before trimming the excess.
Brush and hand over
Light sand is spread where required, the pile is brushed, the site is cleaned and the seams checked before handover.

Seams and edges

How we keep seams and edges unobtrusive

A good seam is almost invisible, and that depends on three things: pile direction, accurate cutting and good bonding.

We roll out all pieces in the same direction, cut the edge accurately from the backing side without touching the blades, then join the two pieces with seaming tape and a suitable adhesive and weigh them down until set. Edges are fixed according to the surface: with ready edging, suitable fixings into the base, or bonded on concrete, always leaving drainage open. We never leave a raised grass edge that feet can catch on.

Pile direction is uniform across all rolls
Edges are fixed and never block drainage

After handover

How long does it take, and how do I care for the grass?

Rough duration

Small areas are often finished in a day, while large gardens and wide rooftops can take several days depending on the base, edges and drainage.

Cleaning

Sweeping leaves and an occasional rinse are usually enough, with mild cleaner for stains. We follow the product’s guidance.

Furniture and loads

Heavy fixed furniture can leave marks in the pile, so move it from time to time and brush the blades with a soft brush.

Spares

We leave you suitable offcuts that help repair a damaged spot or change an edge later.

Questions to ask before your artificial grass is installed

Can artificial grass be laid straight on soil?

We do not recommend it, because soil sinks and collects water, which leads to dips and ripples. We remove the top layer, lay compacted aggregate and a weed membrane, then lay the grass, so the surface stays firm and drains.

Is artificial grass suitable for rooftops and balconies?

In most cases yes, if the surface is level and the drainage works. We check the fall and the outlets before laying and fix the grass in a way that suits concrete without harming the waterproofing.

What pile height is best?

Common pile heights run from roughly 20 to 50 mm. Lower suits roofs and walkways, and denser, taller pile suits decorative gardens. We pick the best fit for the use and your budget.

Will artificial grass seams show?

Done well they barely show, because rolls are laid in one direction, cut accurately and joined with proper tape and adhesive. If pile direction differs or the edge is uneven, the seam becomes visible.

Does artificial grass get hot in summer?

It can get warm in direct sun, especially darker colours. We suggest shading seating and play areas, and can discuss the options at the inspection.

Do I need sand on top of the grass?

It depends on the grass type and use. Some types need a light sand layer to hold the blades and add stability, and others do not. We follow the product’s instructions and explain why.

How does artificial grass behave in rain?

Water passes through the backing holes into the drained base. That is why the base must be permeable and the drainage kept open; if water collects it points to a base problem that should be fixed.

What should I send to get a quote?

Send photos of the area, rough sizes, the surface type (soil, concrete or tiles) and the intended use. That is enough for an initial quote that we confirm at the inspection; you can also read what affects artificial grass prices before comparing.
