Good VS. Great. These small details separate a good artificial grass install from a great artificial grass install.

Not all artificial grass installs are created equal, and here is why. 

 

We believe there is a significant difference between a good artificial grass contractor and a great artificial grass contractor, and it is important to know the distinction when selecting a contractor for your project. A good contractor will be able to install the artificial grass correctly, but a great contractor will be able to provide additional value through their experience and expertise.

A top artificial grass contractor understands your needs, recommends options, and has a strong portfolio and references. They use quality materials and have expertise in installation for an attractive and durable outcome. Price shouldn't be the sole factor when choosing a contractor; consider the value they bring.

Providing Project Information

Good

A good artificial grass contractor will provide you with a basic level of information about your project. They will give you an overview of what the project entails, including the materials that will be used and the approximate timeline. They will also answer any questions you may have about the installation process and give you an idea of what to expect during the installation. However, a good contractor may not provide you with a full spectrum of information, such as detailed information about the various types of artificial grass available, or the different installation techniques and their advantages and disadvantages.

 

Great

On the other hand, a great artificial grass contractor will provide you with a comprehensive overview of your project. They will take the time to explain the different types of artificial grass available, and help you choose the one that is best suited to your needs and budget. They will also explain the various installation techniques and their benefits and drawbacks. This level of information allows you to make informed decisions about your project, and ensures that you are fully aware of what to expect throughout the installation process.

In addition to providing you with a wealth of information, a great artificial grass contractor will also take the time to listen to your needs and concerns. They will work closely with you to understand your goals for the project, and help you achieve them in the most efficient and effective way possible. This level of personalized service sets great contractors apart from their peers, and ensures that you are fully satisfied with the final result of your project.

 

In The Field Experience

Good

While a good artificial grass contractor can provide a satisfactory level of service, they may lack the experience necessary to handle more complex or challenging projects. Inexperienced contractors may not be familiar with the latest trends and techniques in artificial grass installation, and may not have the necessary skills to handle unexpected issues that may arise during the project. This lack of experience can ultimately impact the quality of the final product and leave the consumer feeling dissatisfied with the results.

Furthermore, an inexperienced contractor may not have a well-established network of suppliers, which can result in delays in obtaining necessary materials and equipment for the project. This can lead to project delays and increased costs, which can be frustrating for the consumer. When selecting an artificial grass contractor, it is important to consider their level of experience and expertise in the field. A more experienced contractor may have a higher upfront cost, but the end result will be worth the investment, as they are more likely to provide a high-quality installation that meets your expectations.

 

Great

A great artificial grass contractor typically has a lot more experience in the field, making them more capable of handling complex and challenging projects. They have likely worked on a variety of different projects, which gives them the knowledge and expertise to handle unexpected issues and provide solutions that ensure a high-quality final product. A great contractor will also be familiar with the latest trends and techniques in artificial grass installation, allowing them to offer a wider range of options and provide personalized recommendations to fit the customer's unique needs and preferences.

In addition, a great artificial grass contractor will have a well-established network of suppliers, allowing them to obtain high-quality materials and equipment quickly and efficiently. This means that they can complete the project within the agreed-upon timeline, reducing the risk of delays and additional costs for the consumer. A great contractor will also offer warranties and guarantees on their work, giving the customer peace of mind that their investment is protected. Overall, working with a great artificial grass contractor can ensure a high-quality installation that meets the customer's expectations and provides long-lasting value.

 

Artificial Grass Installation Methods

Good

A good artificial grass contractor may lack the experience to handle unexpected issues that may arise during the project. This can result in them having to figure out solutions to problems as they go, which can lead to delays and increased costs. Inexperienced contractors may not be familiar with all the potential issues that can arise during the installation process, and they may not have the knowledge or expertise to handle them efficiently. This lack of experience can ultimately impact the quality of the final product and leave the consumer feeling dissatisfied with the results.

Moreover, because a good artificial grass contractor is still figuring out solutions to problems, they may inadvertently make mistakes during the installation process. This can result in the need for additional repairs or replacements, which can be costly and time-consuming for the consumer. When selecting an artificial grass contractor, it is important to consider their level of experience and expertise in the field. A more experienced contractor will be better equipped to handle unexpected issues and provide solutions efficiently, resulting in a smoother installation process and a higher-quality final product.

 

Great

A great artificial grass contractor typically has a vast amount of experience in the field, which enables them to understand difficult problems and find solutions easily. They have likely encountered a wide range of issues during their career and have developed the knowledge and expertise to handle them efficiently and effectively. A great contractor has a deep understanding of the installation process and can anticipate potential issues before they arise, which allows them to develop a plan of action to resolve them quickly and with minimal disruption to the project. In addition, a great artificial grass contractor has a network of trusted suppliers and partners who can provide them with the materials and equipment necessary to handle any issues that may arise during the project. This allows them to complete the installation within the agreed-upon timeline and budget, reducing the risk of delays and additional costs for the consumer. A great contractor will also offer a warranty or guarantee on their work, giving the customer peace of mind that their investment is protected. Overall, working with a great artificial grass contractor can ensure a high-quality installation that meets the customer's expectations and provides long-lasting value.

Great artificial grass contractors have been in the business for a long time and have installed numerous artificial grass projects. This extensive experience means they have actual evidence on how their installations hold up over time. They have seen how their installations have weathered different conditions and can offer insight into the expected lifespan and durability of their products. This allows them to provide customers with a more accurate estimate of the expected performance of their installation and can provide a greater degree of confidence in the product's longevity. Additionally, great artificial grass contractors are more likely to have a well-established reputation in the industry, which is built on their extensive experience and the quality of their work. This reputation can be demonstrated through customer reviews and testimonials, which provide evidence of their expertise and the satisfaction of their past customers. This track record of success can provide customers with the reassurance that they are working with a trusted and reliable contractor who has the experience and knowledge to provide a high-quality installation that will stand the test of time.

Artificial Grass Materials & Accessories

Good

A good artificial grass contractor will typically use only the necessary materials to complete a job, without going above and beyond to provide the consumer with the absolute best materials available. While this approach can help keep costs down, it may also mean that the final product is not of the highest quality. Good contractors may be more focused on completing the project within the agreed-upon timeline and budget, rather than investing in the highest-quality materials that could increase the lifespan and durability of the installation.

Additionally, a good contractor may not have the same level of knowledge or expertise as a great contractor when it comes to selecting the appropriate materials for each project. This lack of expertise could lead to the use of subpar or unsuitable materials that do not perform as intended, resulting in a less than optimal installation. Ultimately, while a good artificial grass contractor can complete a project, their focus may be on meeting the minimum requirements rather than providing the best possible product.

 

Great

Great artificial grass contractors understand the importance of using the proper materials and accessories to complete an artificial grass installation job. This includes the use of infill, glue, nails, base rock, and sometimes decomposed granite (for putting greens), which are all essential components of a successful installation. Infill is used to provide stability to the grass fibers and helps to keep the blades standing upright. Proper use of infill is crucial in preventing the grass from matting or becoming uneven over time. Great contractors will use the appropriate amount of infill for each specific project, ensuring that the finished product looks and feels natural. Great contractors also know what infill to offer to help with heat and pet odors. 

Glue is another important component of an artificial grass installation. It is used to secure the seams of the grass together, creating a seamless and natural-looking surface. Great contractors will use high-quality adhesive products that are specifically designed for use with artificial grass, ensuring a strong and long-lasting bond. Nails and sometimes decomposed granite are also essential components of an artificial grass installation. Nails are used to secure the grass to the ground, preventing movement or expansion over time. Base rock and decomposed granite is used as a base material, providing a stable and level surface for the grass to be installed on. Standard landscape grass has base aggregate material used only and putting greens get a fine layer of decomposed granite to smooth the surface. Great contractors will use the appropriate amount of base rock and decomposed granite for each specific project, ensuring that the final product is stable, level, drains well and long-lasting. By using the proper materials and accessories, great contractors can ensure that the finished product looks and performs as intended, providing a high-quality and long-lasting artificial grass installation.

 

Seaming Artificial Grass

Good

A good artificial grass contractor may not always bring up a "no seam" guarantee during the initial consultation with the customer. This could be due to a number of reasons, such as the contractor not feeling confident in their ability to achieve a seamless installation, or simply not thinking it is necessary to mention. Without this guarantee being brought up, customers may not even think to ask about it, and may be unaware of its importance in achieving a high-quality final product.

Furthermore, a good artificial grass contractor may not have the same level of expertise or attention to detail as a great contractor when it comes to achieving a seamless installation. While they may still be able to complete a functional installation, it may not be of the same quality as one completed by a great contractor. As such, customers who are not aware of the "no seam" guarantee may not be receiving the best possible product, and could end up with an installation that falls short of their expectations.

 

Great

A great artificial grass contractor understands that the appearance of an installation is just as important as its function. As such, they will take great care to ensure that the final product is aesthetically pleasing and looks as close to natural grass as possible. One way they achieve this is by providing a "no seam" guarantee, which assures the customer that no visible seams will be present on the new artificial grass. Achieving this level of perfection requires a high level of expertise and attention to detail, and great contractors are equipped with the tools and skills to achieve this goal.

By providing a "no seam" guarantee, great artificial grass contractors instill confidence in their customers that the final product will be of the highest quality. This guarantee not only ensures a beautiful and natural-looking installation, but also demonstrates the contractor's commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. With a "no seam" guarantee, customers can trust that they are working with a contractor who has the experience and skill to deliver the best possible results.
