Add a base layer

Once the area is cleared, the next step in artificial turf installation is to add a base layer. This layer is typically made of crushed rock or gravel and serves as a foundation for the turf. The base layer is leveled and compacted to ensure a smooth and even surface for the fake grass to be placed on. The thickness of the base layer will depend on the specific installation and the intended use of the turf. A thicker base layer is recommended for high-traffic areas, such as sports fields.
