Refresh Your Artificial Turf Before the Summer Heat
By Truly Turf Team
Wash away the winter build-up
Hello
Even with Austin's mild winters, fallen leaves, dust, and pet use can compact infill and leave turf looking flat. Start with a thorough debris removal and power broom to re-stand turf fibers.
Sanitize to neutralize odors
Apply an enzyme-based disinfectant that is safe for kids and pets. Focus on high-traffic areas and pet relief zones to keep smells at bay when the temperatures rise.
Rebalance your infill
Use a drop spreader to redistribute infill evenly and prevent hot spots. Work the infill into the backing with stiff bristles so it protects fibers from sun damage.
Finish with a rinse
A final low-pressure rinse clears away loosened debris and helps products settle. Let the turf dry before reopening the space to foot traffic.
Keeping this maintenance rhythm ahead of the summer heat means fewer surprise repairs and a lawn that always looks photo-ready.
