Question

Can you use too much or too little sand on artificial grass?

Daniel · Answer

Yes you can to little and to much sand on artificial grass to much and you'll get alot of movement and wont settle properly and not enough sand the artificial grass wont settle properly as it has nothing to settle on

Thomas · Answer

You can use too much but it would just mean the brushing in process would take a lot longer, the best sand to use is kiln dry sand but you must not let any type of moisture get into the bag or it won't work.

James · Answer

Yes, both too much and too little sand can cause problems with artificial grass. It’s all about hitting the Goldilocks zone.

Hi kelly you want to use about 4-8kg of kiln dried sand per square metre hope that helps thankyou mark

Martin · Answer

depends on the level the artifical grass needs to be at
suggest no more than 500 mm thick 
the ground underneath needs to have a layer of scalpings ie : crushed concrete
both materials will be compacted with a stabiliser membrane
I hope that answers your question
if more sand required increase the layer of scalpings with composite batterns for the perimeter
