Installation process
Here’s how we bring your synthetic turf for schools to life:
1. Consultation and site assessment
We take the time to understand your specific requirements. Our team assesses the site, discusses design preferences and considers factors like safety requirements, usage levels and custom features to create the perfect synthetic turf solution for your space.
2. Design and material selection
Once we’ve identified your needs, we help you choose the best synthetic turf for schools and childcare centres from our premium range. We also discuss optional extras like Soft Fall padding for added safety.
3. Surface preparation
Our team clears the area, removes any existing grass or debris and levels the surface. This step is crucial for preventing uneven surfaces, water pooling and turf movement.
4. Soft fall and safety testing
If required, we install impact-absorbing Soft Fall padding beneath the synthetic turf to cushion falls and reduce injury risks.
5. Turf installation
With the base prepared, we roll out and position our synthetic turf, carefully cutting and joining sections to create a seamless finish. The turf is then secured using high-quality adhesives, ensuring it stays firmly in place while remaining smooth, safe and comfortable underfoot.
6. Final inspection and handover
Before we consider the job complete, our team conducts a thorough final inspection to confirm the turf is secure, level and ready for play. We walk you through the finished installation, provide maintenance tips and answer any questions you may have. Our goal is to deliver a premium, long-lasting play surface that exceeds expectations and provides years of safe outdoor fun.

What is Soft Fall?
Soft Fall is a specialised surface designed to minimize the impact of falls and reduce the risk of injuries in play areas. It provides cushioning and shock absorption, making it ideal for playgrounds, play spaces, and other recreational areas.
Artificial Turf Soft Fall utilises a combination of impact-absorbing layers beneath the synthetic grass surface. These layers work together to absorb and disperse the force of falls, minimising the risk of injuries during play.
