Low Maintenance, Not No Maintenance
Artificial grass needs far less care than real lawn, but some maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. Perth’s dusty summers and eucalyptus leaf drop require attention.
Monthly Tasks
Remove leaves and debris (leaf blower works best). Brush high-traffic areas to keep fibres upright. Rinse with water to remove dust — Perth’s summer dust settles on everything. Check edges for lifting.
Seasonal Tasks
Spring: deep clean with mild detergent. Autumn: clear leaves before they stain. Top up infill sand annually (it compacts over time). Check drainage is working before winter rains.
What to Avoid
No BBQs or fire pits directly on turf (melts). No harsh chemicals. No sharp objects dragged across surface. Keep pets nails trimmed. Get professional maintenance for annual deep clean. See our artificial vs real comparison and garden maintenance services.
