Is Artificial Grass Worth It?

Is artificial grass worth it? This is a question many people ask. A high-quality artificial lawn can be costly to purchase and install. Many people wonder if the cost is worth the result. In this blog post we’ll break down value for money and overall worth in the long run.

Benefits of having an artificial lawn:

It looks better than real grass.
Pet & child friendly so your loved ones can enjoy all year round.
More advanced drainage system removes any liquids so there is no damage caused by pet urine or rain.
Long lasting.
Easy to clean and maintain.
Odour free.
Cool surface.

Hassle Free

Many people think that maintaining artificial grass will be a difficult, tiresome job. However, this is not true at all. All of our artificial turfs are easy to clean and maintain. You only need to lightly brush your lawn with a medium soft garden brush, how often you do this depends on the usage of your lawn. If you have children or pets playing on your artificial lawn we advise that you brush it every 1-2 months to keep it looking brand new. We also supply accessories such as our enzyme cleaner which is easy to use and kills any unwanted bacteria or ammonia.

Long lasting

This depends on the quality of the manufacturer. Here at K9 we pride ourselves in long lasting lawns. Your artificial lawn should last up to 20 years and shouldn’t fade in colour or flatten. If you are using a lower quality manufacturer, some artificial lawns can only last a few months! This is why it’s important to think of quality instead of price when it comes to purchasing, as you will definitely get your value for money. A low-quality lawn can create a build-up of harmful bacteria and a strong smell of ammonia especially if pets are using the artificial grass. This can be harmful to children who use the lawn to play on. There is also a chance of tearing if the material used isn’t the best it could be, meaning you will have to replace your artificial lawn or use an alternative which could be expensive.
