  • Yes, you can. Repairing or patching a section of artificial grass is similar to carpet repairs. That is why we always suggest people to save all the leftover pieces from the original installations, just in case that you might need it for future repairs, such as melted turf stated in your question.
    There are several things you need to be aware of:

    • Artificial grass productions are in batches, in carpet industry, we call it “dye lots”. The same product from different dye lots will not match up perfectly, therefore, you will always need to make sure to have the same dye lot for one single project. When it comes to repair or patch the artificial grass, also to use the same dye lot to keep the consistency.
    • Once turf being installed for a long while, even the same dye lot to be used for repair or patch, you will see the difference between “new” and “old” as already installed piece has been weathered along with wear and tear, a brand new piece will take a while to fully blend in with the original installed piece.
    • When patching a section, you need to make sure the artificial grass fibers of the new piece and the existing piece to face the same direction in order to get the best results.
