How Much Does Artificial Grass Cost?

The cost of artificial grass supply and installation typically ranges between £50 and £100 per square metre. 

The cost of synthetic grass will depend on various factors including the groundwork required, the complexity of the project, and the quality of materials.

• Small garden (20m²): Approx. £2,000–£2,200 (inclusive of materials and labour).
• Medium garden (50m²): Approx. £4,000–£4,500.
• Larger spaces (100m²+): Costs generally start at £6,000.

Factors affecting the cost include:

• Quality (luxury-grade grasses cost more).
• Additional groundwork, such as removing old turf or levelling the surface.
• Customisations like edging or drainage enhancements.

What Are the Benefits of Installing Artificial Grass?

Artificial grass offers several advantages over natural turf.

Some of the main advantages include:

• Low Maintenance: No mowing, fertilising, or watering.
• Year-Round Appeal: Stays green and lush in all seasons.
• Durability: Resistant to wear, making it ideal for high-traffic areas.
• Cost-Effective: Saves on water bills and maintenance costs over time.
• Pet-Friendly: Easier to clean and unaffected by urine stains or digging.
• Eco-Friendly Options: Some varieties are made from recycled materials.

How Long Does Artificial Grass Last?

High-quality artificial grass can last 10–15 years or more with proper installation and maintenance. 

Longevity depends on the quality of materials used, with polyethene or nylon being the most durable options. 

The frequency of use also plays a role, as high foot traffic areas may experience faster wear and tear. A regular maintenance routine, including cleaning and brushing, helps to extend the lifespan of the artificial grass.

What Types of Artificial Grass Are Available?

Standard lawn grass is ideal for gardens and residential use, providing a natural and aesthetically pleasing appearance. 

Sports turf is specifically designed for durability and performance, making it suitable for activities such as football, tennis, or golf. 

Playground grass is softer and cushioned to ensure safety in play areas, reducing the risk of injuries. 

Pet-friendly grass is non-toxic and durable, designed to handle pet activity while being easy to clean. 

Luxury or ornamental grass offers a thicker, more realistic appearance, creating a premium finish for decorative or high-end landscaping projects.

Is Artificial Grass Safe for Pets and Children?

Artificial grass is designed to be safe for both pets and children. 

It is made from non-toxic materials, ensuring it is free from harmful chemicals. The surface is soft and cushioned, which helps minimise injuries during play.

Artificial grass is easy to clean as it drains efficiently and can be washed with water and mild detergent. 

Unlike natural grass, it does not require the use of fertilisers or pesticides, reducing exposure to potentially harmful substances.

How Is Artificial Grass Installed?

The artificial grass installation process begins with planning and measuring, where the area is assessed, and any existing grass or debris is removed. 

Next, ground preparation is carried out by excavating the soil, laying a weed membrane, and levelling the surface with a sub-base such as crushed aggregate or sand. 

The grass is then rolled out and positioned, with careful cutting to ensure it fits the area precisely. 

Once in place, the grass is secured using adhesive and stakes to keep it firmly in position. 

The installation is completed with finishing touches, including brushing up the fibres, applying sand infill if needed, and conducting a thorough inspection to ensure quality.

What Are the Maintenance Requirements for Artificial Grass?

Regular brushing is necessary to prevent the fibres from flattening and to remove debris that may accumulate over time. 

Occasionally hosing down the surface helps to clean dirt or pet mess, ensuring it remains fresh and hygienic. 

Weed control is another important step, as weeds may grow through the edges, so inspecting and removing them as needed is essential. 

Periodic inspection of the edges and seams is also recommended to ensure proper adhesion and to address any potential issues before they worsen.

How Does Artificial Grass Compare to Natural Grass?

Artificial grass requires far less maintenance, eliminating the need for mowing, watering, or fertilising, which makes it a convenient and time-saving option. 

In terms of durability, artificial grass resists wear and weather much better than natural turf, maintaining its appearance and functionality over time. 

While the initial cost of artificial grass is higher, it results in lower long-term expenses due to reduced maintenance needs. Artificial grass also reduces water usage, which is an environmental benefit, although it comes with a higher carbon footprint during production. 

On the other hand, natural grass provides a natural cooling effect and supports biodiversity, offering ecological benefits that artificial grass cannot replicate.

Can Artificial Grass Be Used for Specific Applications?

Artificial grass can be tailored for specific applications to suit a variety of needs. 

In play areas, artificial grass offers soft and safe surfaces for children, reducing the risk of injuries. 

For sports grounds, it is customisable to accommodate various sports, delivering durability and consistent performance. 

On balconies and terraces, artificial grass adds a touch of greenery to urban spaces, creating a more inviting and visually appealing environment.

How Long Does It Take to Install Artificial Grass?

On average, small gardens measuring between 20 and 30 square metres take approximately 1 to 2 days to install. 

For larger spaces measuring 100 square metres or more, the installation process can take longer.

It is important to understand that various factors can implement the time taken to install the artificial grass, such as access to the area, location, size and shape.

What Should You Do If Your Artificial Grass Needs Repairs?

Loose edges can be fixed with re-adhesion using a strong adhesive to secure the grass back in place. Seam repairs may involve replacing damaged seam tape to ensure the joins remain intact and seamless. 

For worn or torn sections, patch replacement is an effective solution, where the damaged areas are replaced with new pieces of grass that match the original installation. 

Flattened areas can be revived by brushing the fibres to restore their upright position and natural look. 

For the best results, a professional repair service is recommended to ensure the repairs are performed to a high standard and blend seamlessly with the existing surface.
