Keeping your artificial grass looking its best requires regular cleaning. You can do a lot of this yourself with some simple brushing and the occasional hose-down, but most experts recommend getting your turf professionally cleaned at least once a year to keep it in the best condition throughout its life. 

But how do you find a reliable professional to do the job? This article guides you through the process of choosing the right local artificial turf cleaner. 

Step 1: Do Your Research

The best way to find any local business nowadays is by looking online. It’ll give you a greater pool of options than, say, your local advertising magazine or newspaper. 

Start by searching online for “turf cleaning service” or “artificial grass cleaning” in your area. The search engine should automatically filter the results so you’re only seeing companies that operate in your home town or city. Learn more about our service areas.

Step 2: Check Reviews

Once you have a list of local companies, you want to know whether or not they’re worth your time. For this, read customer reviews and testimonials to gauge the company’s reputation.

Take reviews with a pinch of salt. You’ll struggle to find a company that has nothing but positive reviews, and there will always be customers who find problems with a service when nobody else would. So take negative reviews on board, but keep an open mind, too.

Step 3: Narrow Down Your Options

You’ve probably already narrowed your options slightly after reading customer reviews. But if you still have a handful of companies to choose from, you will reduce this list to two or three. 

When you’re choosing which companies to rule out, it’s good to see if they offer the following: 

• At least 3-5 years of experience in artificial grass cleaning, demonstrating that they know the best methods and equipment.
• The necessary tools and effective, safe cleaning solutions for a thorough job.
• Guarantees on their work, so you know you’ll receive a quality service. 
• Insurance, to protect you from any potential damages.

If a company you’re looking at doesn’t provide any of the above, look for another company that does. 

Step 4: Get Quotes

Now it’s time to obtain quotes from the two or three companies on your shortlist. The reason why it’s good to get quotes from at least two different companies is so you can compare prices and services.

When you’re getting quotes, it’s also helpful to ask for detailed estimates that include the cost of cleaning, any additional services, and the expected timeframe.

Step 5: Finalize Your Decision

Choose the company that’s the best fit for you based on your budget and service requirements. 

If you’re still stuck between a few, don’t hesitate to ask about the cleaning process, the products they use, and their experience.

Final Word

By following the steps outlined in this guide, you should have no trouble finding a reliable turf cleaning service to keep your artificial grass looking its best. 

The most important thing is to do your research—the only way to know you’re getting good value for money is to have a clear understanding of company pricing in your local area.
