An ideal base for artificial turf commonly consists of three layers:
- Sub-base Layer
Typically made up of excavated soil or crushed rock, this initial layer serves the primary function of establishing a flat base and resolving any drainage concerns within the natural soil.
- Base Layer
This layer, known as the workhorse layer, is usually constructed using CMB or DG and serves the purposes of offering stability, facilitating drainage, and aiding in surface leveling.
- Levelling Layer
The ultimate surface, frequently composed of sand, crushed gravel, or a specialized turf underlayment, is responsible for establishing a polished and finely adjusted area for the installation of the turf, even when installing turf on dirt.
