[AD] Summer is here, so making the most of any outside space you have is high on the list of priorities for many people. Weekends spent relaxing in the garden listening to music, reading or having a BBQ is a real highlight for people over the summer months. When those gorgeous sunny days with clear blue skies and warm weather arrives, you want to be able to make the most of them right away.
What can often stop people enjoying their own outside space is the work which is often needed to maintain the space. The stress of everyday life with work and families means that at the end of the day, working on your garden, for some, isn’t their idea of relaxing. One way around this is by installing artificial grass. There are several great benefits to artificial grass, and I’ve been in touch with experts at Fylde Grass who supply artificial grass to find out more.
It’s Low Maintenance
The big selling point for many when it comes to artificial grass is its very low maintenance compared to real grass. Unlike real grass, you do not need to cut or water artificial grass and can, therefore, spend much more time simply enjoying it. Artificial grass can be watered when you want to clean it, but you only need short bursts of water to clean the plastic blades. The need to use less water can, therefore, save on your bills. The only other maintenance needed is keeping organic materials like leaves off the grass before they decompose and you need to clean it. You can easily do this with a leaf blower or simply by using your hands to pick them up.
It’s Safe For Kids
Entertaining friends and family over the summer is a real joy, but it can often make your outside space crowded with a lot going on. Artificial grass can take away any worries parents might have about the chemical products used to keep real grass looking good, as artificial grass does not need any. You don’t have to use any weed killer, pesticides or fertilizers to keep the artificial grass looking good, so it is very safe for children to play on.
It’s Durable
Artificial grass is durable so it can withstand kids running around on it and still look great. It’s also able to withstand a variety of weather, so it’s always ready for summer or any nice weather during the year. If you have dogs, artificial grass can handle their running around, and if they leave any mess behind it’s easy to clean up. Simply clean it up with some water and a mild detergent. Also, because there is no mud for dogs to dig in, it means and end to them digging holes in your grass or walking muddy paw prints through your house from the garden.
It’s Not Affected By Shade
The challenge with real grass if often getting the whole lawn to look even. This is made even harder if your outdoor space has shaded areas where sunlight rarely reaches. With artificial grass, the colour is consistent across the surface regardless of sunlight.
Overall artificial grass has several benefits which make it a great option if you are looking for a less stressful way of maintaining your outdoor space.
