The answer is "NO", even though artificial grass can take great pressures, but the twisting motion and rolling will definitely cause damage to the turf.
![]() | Shannon Beck - Vice President Driving on artificial grass is never recommend. However it will be fine if you use artificial turf in between pavers, in such cases, the tires motions are more on the pavers than directly to the turf. |

Yes, as long as you can walk it, you can turf it! If the slop gets steep, you will need to watch out for the infills as it tends to be washed away easily, so you might not to want to put much of infills for such installations: by doing the installations without infills, you will need to minimize the seams and try to secure the edges as tight as possible by nailing firmly on the edge boards. As far as drainage, water will simply dispensed sideways.
![]() | My front yard has a mild slope to it, the installation was done perfectly! |
![]() | Great way you put it: you can walk it, you can turf it! |
![]() | I can see some minor sloped lawns making sense, not sure what the point to have artificial grass installed on a steep slope. |

![]() | My yard has a 25 degree slope to it, the installation was done just fine. |
![]() | I don't think the turf installation on a slope would be a problem at all. |
![]() | I haven't come across installations that can't be done due to the slopes. |
![]() | We have customers installing turf vertically on the wall: like hanging carpet. Of course that is to the extreme, not necessarily apply to your concerns here. Just a comment. |

Lines on certain products can be more visible than others; such lines can be seen only from certain angles and non-visible from other angles. Replacement with the same turf will show the similar lines. Different products can look different, depending on the angles of the lights, and shading, same product can show no lines while be showing lines in another application: this is almost exactly like carpets, where you can see patterns/lines when you are paying attention.
Please understand that visual lines on turf products are normal: such lines are not considered as “defective”, therefore are not covered by our product warranty.
![]() | I personally like the 44, more like real green color. |
![]() | I was watching football games on TV, and most fields the turf look with lines all over the fields so I guess those are visuals. Otherwise those NFL teams spend millions on the turf, can't be product issues, just my personal thoughts. |
![]() | Sometimes you see them, sometimes you don't. Not sure such thing even bother anyone, no matter what, they look much better than real grass. |
![]() | I have looked mine and my neighbors, you have to look for them, otherwise, I don't think people pay attention to such lines. |
![]() | I never pay attention to the lines if any: The real grass never looks perfect anyway, in my opinion, the "less" perfect look to a fake turf the better as you want to achieve the "natural" look. |
![]() | Experienced installers understand the surroundings and lighting directions, and installing turf accordingly which can make some of lines less visible. |
![]() | Just like carpet, you can see some pattern lines from time to time. |
![]() | Our service team run into such questions quite often, and it normal with some visual lines showing at certain time of the day at certain angles: it is all visual, nothing wrong with the turf itself. |
![]() | I can see a bit lines at certain angle only during the sunset time, doesn't bother me at all. |
![]() | I have seen the same type of visual lines on my carper and that answers it. |
![]() | I can see lines on turf while watching NFL games on TV, and I assume those are normal. |
