What we do?
Regular drag brushing and conditioning:
In 3G Maintenance, regular cleaning and drag brushing are essential. These practices remove vegetation buildup, making the surface more comfortable for users.
- Benefits of Proper Maintenance:
Maintaining artificial grass with sand or rubber infill provides a durable and safe playing surface for sports and landscaping. - Role of Drag Brushing:
Drag brushing is crucial for ensuring your turf remains in top condition. It improves drainage, reduces slippage, and extends the lifespan of your artificial grass. - Expert Services:
Astro Care offers professional drag brushing services to keep your turf in optimal shape.
You can read a detailed description of drag brushing here: Drag Brushing.
Intensive Deep cleaning:
- Why Deep Cleaning Matters:
While synthetic turf is easier to maintain than natural grass, intensive deep cleaning is important to keep it in good condition. Bacteria can cause odors over time.
- Our Cleaning Approach:
We use non-toxic, biodegradable cleaners with mechanical brushes for effective cleaning that’s safe for your turf. - Additional Maintenance Tips:
Regular maintenance—including magnets for metal debris and anti-microbial coatings—ensures a safe and fresh turf environment.

Moss and Vegetation Removal:
Moss or weed can still develop, especially in wetter months. While some tiny weeds can be removed with your bare hands, we remove it all with non-aggressive moss killer. Removing moss and vegetation from artificial turf is crucial for several reasons:
Aesthetics: Moss and other vegetation can make your artificial turf look unkempt and less appealing.
Safety: Moss can create slippery surfaces, increasing the risk of falls and injuries.
Durability: Vegetation can damage the turf’s structure, leading to premature wear and tear.
Hygiene: Moss and vegetation can trap moisture, creating a breeding ground for bacteria and mold.
Rejuvenation:
Cleaning and brushing remove debris from the pitch’s surface and help remove vegetation buildup. With time, rubber and sand infill in your artificial surface becomes compacted, reducing comfort and safety. We help to fix that using our experience and solutions! Regular rejuvenation ensures the turf maintains its original performance characteristics, such as proper drainage and cushioning. By addressing wear and tear, rejuvenation extends the lifespan of the turf, maximizing your investment.
