Plate compactor or hand compactor are required for artificial grass installations. For small areas, a hand compactor will work just fine, and a powered plate compactor will make more sense for larger installations. Typically, you will need to compact the drain rock layer of the sub base and also the top layer to 90% after one another to ensure solid and smooth foundations to lay your artificial turf. You can rent either kind of compactors from any local tool rental companies at minimum cost, or if you are installation professional, purchasing such compactors is an option from your local hardware or tool stores.
