Artificial turf is very low maintenance compared with natural grass, but occasional cleaning and grooming will help keep it looking its best and protect your investment for years to come. There's no mowing, fertilizing, aerating, or regular watering schedule required.

For most of our artificial turf customers in Boise and the Treasure Valley, maintenance is surprisingly simple. We typically recommend a thorough cleanup in the spring after winter and again in the fall after the leaves have dropped. Leaves and debris can be removed with a leaf blower, a turf rake with flexible bristles, or one of the lightweight artificial turf power brooms/vacuums that looks and operates much like a small lawn mower. Many of our customers simply “vacuum” their turf once or twice a year to remove debris while helping brush the grass fibers back upright.

High-traffic areas may benefit from occasional brushing or power brooming, and infill can be redistributed or replenished over time if needed.

Pet turf requires a little additional care. Solid waste is removed normally, while areas frequently used for urination can be rinsed and periodically treated with a turf-safe enzyme cleaner to help control odors.

Idaho Rock N Turf also offers professional artificial turf maintenance and turf refresh services throughout the Treasure Valley, including deep cleaning, power brooming, infill replenishment, and general turf rejuvenation.

With a small amount of routine care, quality artificial grass can stay clean, upright, and attractive for many years—with a fraction of the maintenance required by a natural lawn.
