To properly calculate the amount of synthetic grass needed for your lawn, your artificial grass installer will need to consider the shape of your lawn; in most cases, square or rectangular lawns are the easiest to measure.
For square or rectangular lawns, artificial grass installers will measure the width and length of your lawn in feet and determine the square footage. If your lawn is 15 feet wide and 15 feet long, you would need 225 square feet of synthetic grass.
CALCULATING ANGLED ARTIFICIAL GRASS LAWNS
For landscapes with angles, artificial grass installers will measure the longest and widest angles of your lawn. If there is any excess synthetic turf, your installer will cut the artificial grass to shape.
As an example, if your longest angle is 20 feet long and your widest angle is 15 feet wide, your artificial grass installer will install approximately 300 square feet of synthetic grass.
DOUBLE-CHECKING YOUR ARTIFICIAL GRASS INSTALLATION
Even after meticulously measuring your lawn, a professional artificial grass installer will double check their work, ensuring that your new landscape will be a perfect fit. By doing so, they will guarantee that there won’t be any artificial turf wasted after your installation or that they didn’t measure too shortly.
