They finished the smaller side yard the first half of the day. Cutting out the turf around the stones and nailing it into place is time consuming. Along with nails the turf is stapled to the edge border on the side that is bordered. Sand is added to both weight the turf down and to help spread the fibers. The turf is brushed to evenly distribute the sand and lift the fibers.
The back yard has been stapled to the edge border and trimmed. Extra material was attached to bring the turf all the way to the living room sliding door. They will have to do the same thing to get the turf to reach the guest room door.
It is looking quite nice.
