Install Artificial Grass

Install Artificial Grass

I have pavers in the backyard of my house, as shown in the attached picture. I am planning to install artificial grass in this area and would like your advice on the best method to proceed for a long term perspective.

Could you please recommend whether I should:

  1. Remove the pavers and prepare a soft ground base (soil and compacted crushed rock/sand), or
  2. Install artificial grass directly on the hard surface (over the pavers with an underlay for drainage and cushioning)?

Reason 

1 Have some relaxation area to sit down in evening and night 

2 Play area for kids age 4-10 yrs

 

Note 

Only installing the back side of the house . (Approx area to isnatll is approx 12 m x 2.3 m)

Not installing on the right side where gas water heater is installed (Planning to install patio that side in future)

 

Additionally, I would appreciate a step-by-step guide on the best installation approach based on your recommendation.

Looking forward to your guidance.image25.jpg
