Hey everyone – figured I’d do my first blog on the table repair project that John Sandy and myself have undertaken. We are completely replacing two tabletops and reskinning two other older tables. We purchased two 4×8 pressure treated ground contact plywood sheets, four 6ft by 8ft rolls of trafficMaster artificial grass rugs, a gallon of exterior rated paint and some miscellaneous galvanized screws and hardware. The total for this project was just over $300. The temperature was around 70 degrees at lunch time and the winds were light.

Here's what the particle board table looked like after removing the old artificial grass
Here we have one old table ready for a new tabletop and another table stripped of old grass and ready for paint
I painted the two new tops in my garage and had them ready for today. After we removed the old turf from two other tables I painted them and we proceeded to apply turf to the two new tabletops. We purchased four 6ft by 8ft rolls of trafficMaster artificial grass rugs at Home Depot. The new tabletops are 4ft by 8ft pressure treated ground contact rated plywood - also purchased at Home Depot.
And here's what they look like now. We still plan on replacing the uprights - we just didn't have them ready for installation yet.
