Creating shapes with
artificial grass
Creating distinct shapes, curves and
lines with artificial grass is a great
way to achieve a modern and unique
look with your garden. We can cut the
artificial sheet to virtually any shape,
with neat and clean edges that couldn’t
be achieved through traditional
gardening. Artificial grass is easy to
install, so you can consider the sort of
layout you’d like before placing your
order and discuss your design ideas
with the supplier. The sky’s the limit!
Some popular shapes are circles and
curved borders. You can even layer
artificial grass on the sides of your
home if you’d like, which is a nice look
in particular for communal gardens in
blocks of flats where there’s not a lot of
space.
Maintaining your artificial
lawn
If you decide to try artificial grass
for yourself, here’s our advice for
maintaining it’s quality. After
installation, your new garden will look
pristine and there are a few things you
can do to preserve its condition and
make your investment last.
When it comes to artificial grass, light
maintenance goes a long way. This
means de-weeding and brushing debris
67
off the surface every week or so. Leaves
will quickly rot especially during rainy
months, which can cause damage
to the artificial turf, so keep a brush
nearby to prevent this happening. Also,
remember to apply weed killer to the
area a couple of times a year. Weeds
still grow beneath artificial grass and
will begin to come through and damage
the turf if you do not treat them.
When it comes to artificial grass,
maintenance is mostly common sense
which is why it’s so great - it makes
creating a beautiful garden possible for
absolutely everyone.
