Can you install artificial turf on hillsides or slopes? Does the terrain have to be flat in order to be suitable for turf?

There is a saying in the artificial grass industry: “If you can walk it, we can turf it!” In another word, if the slope of the area is walkable, you should be able to install artificial grass on it. However, I will always suggest to have professional installers to perform the installation rather than trying to do it for yourself. Installation of artificial grass on a slope can be tricky and require experiences especially for sub base preparing which you not only need to make the surface smooth but also have to make sure the contours will work with laying the grass. There also might be sophisticated cuts required when you laying the turf given the fact of some irregular slopes. One thing you need to be aware that if the slope is mild with more usage/traffic or you are in an area with often rains, the infills on such artificial grass might lose away easily so from time to time, you might need to add more infills
