FAQs

How often do I need to clean the artificial grass?

Routine cleaning with a hose and occasional brushing are generally sufficient. The frequency depends on usage and environmental factors like trees nearby.

Is this artificial grass safe for pets and children?

Yes, it's designed to be safe. The excellent drainage prevents muddy areas, making it a clean and comfortable surface for kids and pets to play on.

Does the color fade over time?

No, the grass features UV resistance ensuring that its vibrant green color will stay the same shade all year round without any discolouring.

Can I install this artificial grass over my existing natural lawn?

It is recommended to remove the existing grass and prepare a proper sub-base (e.g., compacted aggregate, sand) for optimal drainage and longevity.

What tools are essential for installation?

You will primarily need a sharp utility blade or knife for cutting, and specialized artificial grass jointing tape and adhesive for securing seams.

Can this grass be used indoors?

Yes, its versatile design makes it suitable for both outdoor and indoor applications on many different surface types.

Does it require sand infill?

No, this artificial grass does not require sand infill, simplifying the installation process.

Troubleshooting

Grass appears flat or matted

This is common with use. Simply brush the grass blades against their natural grain using a stiff-bristled broom to help them stand upright again.

Water is pooling on the surface

While designed for excellent drainage, check if the drainage holes are obstructed by debris or if the sub-base underneath is adequately prepared to allow water to flow through. Hose down to clear any blockages.

Seams are visible after installation

Ensure that the edges of the grass rolls were tightly butted together during installation. Re-apply jointing tape and adhesive if necessary, ensuring a firm bond along the entire seam.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Cost-Effective Investment: Offers an affordable way to enhance your garden's aesthetic for years.
Minimal Upkeep: Great for busy lifestyles, requiring very little attention once installed.
All-Weather Vibrancy: Stays green and fresh-looking in all seasons thanks to UV resistance.
Quick Drying: Excellent drainage prevents soggy patches, keeping the area usable.
Simple DIY Installation: Designed for easy fitting, even in complex spaces.
Clean Play Area: Reduces mud and mess, making it ideal for families with children or pets.

Cons

Introductory Pile Height: The 7mm length is shorter, offering less plushness compared to higher pile options.
Budget-Oriented Finish: While vibrant, its aesthetic is more functional than luxurious.
Requires Manual Cleaning: Occasional hosing and brushing are needed to maintain its fresh look.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

Prepare the Surface: Ensure the area is clean, level, and free of debris. If installing on soil, compact it and consider a weed membrane.
Unroll the Grass: Carefully unroll the artificial grass over your prepared area.
Cut to Shape: Use a sharp utility blade or knife to cut the grass to the desired shape and size, trimming around edges and obstacles. For complex shapes, create a template first.
Join Sections (if needed): If using multiple rolls, butt the edges together tightly. Apply specialized artificial grass jointing tape and adhesive underneath the seams for a seamless finish.
Secure Edges: For outdoor installations, consider securing the perimeter with adhesive or U-pins to prevent movement.

Compatibility

Surfaces: Compatible with a wide range of surfaces including soil (with proper sub-base), concrete, decking, patio slabs, and balconies.
Environments: Suitable for both outdoor gardens, landscapes, and indoor applications like conservatories or play areas.

Care & Maintenance

Routine Cleaning: For general freshness, simply hose down the grass with water to remove dust and light debris.
Brush Down: Occasionally brush the grass blades against their natural grain using a stiff broom. This helps to keep the pile upright and maintain its fresh, new look.
Stain Removal: For spills, blot immediately and clean with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Leaf & Debris Removal: Use a leaf blower, rake (plastic or soft-bristled), or brush to remove leaves and other organic matter.
