Tips on Compacting Decomposed Granite

Firstly see that the decomposed granite is properly compacted, if not it might cause irregularities on the surface of your synthetic grass and this can cause affects on the roll of you ball. With a help of hose, lightly spray over the decomposed granite. See that you don't saturate it, now compact the decomposed granite to ensure you have a solid compaction and make sure you do this several times. In case if there are any ridges, bumps or dips, smooth them out with your shovel or rack.

Helpful tip: Always ensure to keep the surface solid and smooth consistently. You must know that a one inch rise over 1 to 2 feet will add a lot of contour once the artificial grass is added. Synthetic turf has to fit like a glove to the surface. Adding too much of slope will make the ball roll fast and it may roll off your green. A good basic guideline is for every 10 to 12 feet in length the decomposed granite will drop the slope 1 inch.
