Frequently asked questions
Down flow FAQs
If your lawn is struggling with drainage and there are visible puddles or areas that are wet underfoot, down flow is the best way to improve the movement of this water through the soil underneath your grass.
The treatment can be applied every 4 to 6 weeks during periods of wet weather or as often as required. In areas with heavy rainfall or lawns with known persistent water pooling, we recommend frequent application initially to maximise effectiveness and results.
Absolutely, down flow is absorbed into the grass and soil, making it safe to use around children and pets.
Our down flow treatment enhances water penetration in compacted and waterlogged lawns and reduces puddling and soggy turf following rainfall.
