Turf Playset Pad Installation: How We Build Them at Site Prep

This video explains our step-by-step process on how we install turf swingset bases/playset foundations at Site Prep. Our artificial turf installation process includes leveling the ground, adding a weed fabric barrier, compacting a layer of stone, seaming and tamping the artificial turf, as well as a few other steps.
Although artificial turf installation is one of our company's services, we go beyond that by providing a gravel sub-base underneath the turf layer, providing a sturdy and stable foundation that will last for years to come. A turf pad with a gravel sub-base can be used as a swingset foundation, firepit/hangout area, pool pad, and much more!

Cool video. Whoever did the voiceover did a great job!

Thanks, Josh!

[@JessieKlein]

Wouldn't this be hard? Like if a child fell and hit their head there is only hard rock beneath the turf?

[@dansalinger187]

What an awesome set up! Is the turf fire-resistant?

[@site-prep]

No it is not.
