Artificial grass has become a popular choice for homeowners looking to enhance their outdoor spaces without the hassle of regular lawn maintenance. It offers the lush, green appearance of natural grass all year round, without the need for watering, mowing, or fertilizing. At Wall2Wall Carpets & Flooring, we provide a variety of artificial grass options to suit different needs and preferences. Here are some important considerations to keep in mind when purchasing artificial grass.



Benefits of Artificial Grass

Before diving into the specifics of what to look for, it's essential to understand the key benefits of artificial grass:

  • Low Maintenance: Unlike natural grass, artificial grass requires no watering, mowing, or fertilizing. This makes it an ideal choice for those who want a beautiful lawn without the time-consuming upkeep.
  • Year-Round Appeal: Artificial grass looks great in all seasons. It maintains its lush green appearance regardless of weather conditions, ensuring your lawn always looks pristine.
  • Durability: Made to withstand heavy foot traffic, artificial grass is durable and long-lasting. It's perfect for households with pets and children.
  • Eco-Friendly: By eliminating the need for water, fertilisers, and pesticides, artificial grass is an environmentally friendly option.


Key Considerations When Buying Artificial Grass


When purchasing artificial grass, consider the following factors to ensure you choose the best option for your needs:


  1. Blade Length and Density
    • Blade Length: Artificial grass comes in various blade lengths, typically ranging from 20mm to 40mm. Shorter blades (20-30mm) provide a neat, manicured look, while longer blades (30-40mm) offer a more lush and natural appearance.
    • Density: The density of the grass, or the number of blades per square meter, affects its durability and comfort. Higher density grass looks more realistic and feels softer underfoot but can be more expensive.
  2. Material Quality
    • Polyethylene: This material is soft, durable, and ideal for areas with high foot traffic. It looks realistic and feels comfortable.
    • Polypropylene: This is a more cost-effective option but less durable compared to polyethylene. It's suitable for decorative areas with lower foot traffic.
    • Nylon: The most durable of the three, nylon can withstand high temperatures and heavy usage. However, it is more expensive and not as soft as polyethylene.
  3. Backing and Drainage
    • Backing: The quality of the backing affects the grass’s stability and durability. Look for backing with multiple layers and good tuft bind to ensure the blades stay in place.
    • Drainage: Proper drainage is crucial to prevent water from pooling on the surface. Ensure the artificial grass has adequate drainage holes to allow rainwater to pass through easily.
  4. UV Resistance

Artificial grass exposed to direct sunlight should have UV protection to prevent fading and degradation. Check if the product offers UV resistance to maintain its colour and integrity over time.

  1. Pet and Child-Friendly
    • Pet-Friendly: If you have pets, choose grass designed to withstand wear and tear from pets. It should be easy to clean and resistant to odours.
    • Child-Friendly: For families with children, opt for soft, non-toxic grass that provides a safe playing surface.
  2. Warranty and Guarantee

A good warranty is a sign of quality and durability. Look for products that come with at least a 5–10-year warranty to ensure long-term satisfaction.

  • Maintenance: Although low maintenance, artificial grass still requires some care. Regularly brush the grass to keep the blades upright and remove any debris. Rinse it occasionally to remove dust and dirt and treat any spills promptly.
