Poor Drainage and Turf Installation Issues
The most common cause of chronic odor is poor synthetic grass drainage.

Urine passes through the artificial turf but hits this compacted layer…

Why Use Poly Board Edging for Artificial Turf?
The edging holds your turf’s foundation in place. Under your artificial turf, there’s crushed rock and sand that help with drainage and keep things stable. Without proper edging, this base material slowly spreads out and washes away. Your lawn starts sinking and looking uneven. Poly board lawn edging stops weeds from growing into your lawn from nearby garden…
