Q: What type of base is required before applying TuffTurf® Tiles to a play area?
A: There are four options:
1) The most common and most effective base is a concrete slab.
2) If you are applying TuffTurf surfacing to the bases of slides and swings only, a wood platform is an option.
3) Asphalt is a third option. Keep in mind that asphalt must cure for at least 30 days before TuffTurf can be applied.
4) Compact crushed rock is also an option. TuffTurf is then glued to a geotextile filter fabric to keep the TuffTurf from moving.
If you have further questions about surfacing options, contact your local Landscape Structures representative.
