After cutting, lay the piece in its intended position and check the fit. For a seamless result, trim around edges, curves, and obstacles such as trees or posts. Following the backing’s stitch lines helps keep your edges straight. Work gradually, removing small amounts at a time and testing the fit after each adjustment. This measure-cut-trim sequence produces clean results that blend naturally with the surrounding surface. For the full installation context, see our artificial grass installation guide.
How to Prepare Artificial Turf Edges for Seams
Before joining two turf panels together, preparing clean, precise seam edges is critical for a seamless finish. Inspect both pieces from the backing side and follow these two preparation rules:
Check the Tuft Rows Before Cutting
Turn both panels over and locate the parallel tuft rows (stitch lines). Always cut parallel to these rows rather than slicing directly through the tufted stitch structure. Ensure the two sections meet smoothly without overlapping backing or creating a wide gap.
