ARTIFICIAL GRASS

WHY WINTER IS A GOOD TIME TO INSTALL ARTIFICIAL GRASS

It ’ s not widely known that winter is the perfect time to install artificial grass - and many installers often find their trade dips in the colder months .
By educating your customers on the right time to ‘ go artificial ’, you can build up a steady trade in the winter months - and Harlestone Supplies are here to help with everything you need to lay the perfect artificial lawn .
Over the winter , the ground is generally softer and more pliable , which means installing the grass will be far easier than in the summer months . Plus , there are fewer plants and shrubs in the garden to work around , so your installation will be faster too .
It ’ s not advisable to walk on newly installed artificial turf , and since people are less likely to spend time in their gardens in January , the grass will get plenty of time to settle before the garden comes to life in the spring .
Harlestone Group Managing Director , Silas Wilde , commented : “ From landscaping large residential developments to fuss-free lawns for homeowners , our range of artificial grass is ideal for all projects . We supply landscape gardeners , the trade and the public with high-quality artificial turf , and can also talk you through the process and advise on choosing the right blade length for your project .”
