How to make artificial grass last longer

Now you know what impact quality products have when it comes to the lifespan of artificial grass, as well as the guarantees we offer at Easigrass Surrey, it’s time to take a look at some of the ways you can make your artificial grass last even longer. Here are some tips and considerations to help you get the most out of your investment:

Usage

How long your artificial grass will last can sometimes come down to what you use it for. For most people, it’s a replacement for the lawn, meaning it will only see light foot traffic, but if you’re planning to play sports on it – especially if you have kids who love to use it as their football pitch – then you can probably expect that extra wear and tear to have an impact over the years. However, quality artificial grass should still stand the test of time, and a professional supplier – such as Easigrass Surrey – can advise you on which product type best suits your planned usage.

Maintenance

There are two types of maintenance you should look into to preserve your artificial lawn: that which you carry out yourself and that which the professionals can conduct on your behalf. We’re talking about the latter for this point, with the Easigrass Surrey team available to provide dedicated maintenance services on a one-off or scheduled basis. This includes algae removal, edge and join checking and re-infilling where needed.

Washing & Brushing

This is maintenance you can perform yourself on a routine basis. You don’t need to do it too often, unless your lawn is prone to getting covered with fallen leaves from nearby trees. Washing your lawn should be something you do more regularly if you have pets who use the lawn as their toilet.

Remove Pet Waste

While urine will wash away, when your pets leave faeces across the lawn, it’s better to pick this up as regularly as possible. Leaving this mess to sit on your lawn will not only attract flies, but could also discolour your lawn if left for too long, and may require more frequent washing to remove if baked into the grass.

Move Garden Furniture

Your artificial grass is strong and versatile, but any really heavy garden furniture (particularly things made of solid stone or metal) should probably be moved regularly to ensure it doesn’t flatten the grass in one spot. If your artificial grass does become flattened, you should be able to brush it back to life, but this tip will save you the extra maintenance.

Professional Installation

To get a finish for your lawn that will last, trust in the experts to lay your artificial grass. This will come complete with the right ground preparation, as well as those finishing touches that are standard for specialists. With a professional finish, you’re far less likely to find yourself having to replace parts of your lawn.

Get your artificial lawn installed by our expert team wherever you are in Surrey, including Guildford, Leatherhead, Farnham and the surrounding areas. You can also trust the team here at Easigrass Surrey for artificial grass maintenance to help your investment last longer and look beautiful all year round. Artificial grass can be installed at any time of the year, unlike natural turf, which means you don’t need to wait for a perfect time to have it laid in order to enjoy your garden.
