Artificial Grass Cleaning in Cullompton

The Moore & Franks approach in Cullompton

Cullompton's newer estates — Knightswood, Colebrook and the growing edges off Honiton Road — are full of the compact, low-maintenance gardens that artificial grass suits busy families. But sitting low in the damp Culm valley, lawns here green up in the pile on shaded plots, and the heavy tree cover along the river drops leaf litter that works into the drainage backing and blocks it. Farmland on every edge adds pollen and dust to the mix. We clear the moss and ground-in debris, power-brush the fibres back up, deal with lifted edges and perimeter weeds, and deodorise pet areas at source.

Cullompton has grown fast, and a lot of its artificial lawns went down on brand-new estate plots where the garden is small and the ground beneath was compacted flat by the builders. That base drains poorly to begin with, so when the pile and backing silt up on top the water has nowhere to go and the lawn turns spongy. Clearing the surface and reopening the drainage holes in the backing is what gives that water a route out again.

On the family estates the lawns get hammered — children, trampolines, garden furniture dragged about — and heavy use in one spot presses the infill down and lays the pile flat until it looks worn out. Cross-brushing lifts those flattened fibres and works the infill back level, so the surface evens up and gets its bounce back. It is the difference between a lawn that looks tired and one that stands like it did when it went down.

In the old core around Fore Street and St Andrew's the gardens are a different beast — small, enclosed courtyards behind listed and conservation-area frontages, often shaded for most of the day. Those green up quickly and want a careful annual clean to stay respectable, with no heavy-handed pressure near old fabric. A quick brush-off of leaves through autumn keeps the Culm-valley damp from turning the surface green before we are next round.
