Artificial grass has become a popular feature in gardens as people look to make their gardens more manageable yet still have a green area and as advancements in artificial grass quality improves so does the number of people choosing to use this material instead of regular grass. Some people find that differentiating between a lawn with real grass and artificial grass is quite hard especially if a good quality product has been used and it is installed competently.
The problem with having a real grass lawn is that it grows and so needs cutting every week or two during the spring and summer months which means that you need to have and store a lawnmower.
This can be an issue if you do not have a garden shed or a garage to store the mower, lack the time to mow the lawn and do not have the means to dispose of the grass cuttings.
The plus points for having artificial grass in the garden are seen especially for families with young children as the lawn can be used all year round without the fear of treading muddy footprints into the house in wet weather. For older adults who may enjoy having a garden but may be unable to cope with the maintenance involved with having a lawn artificial grass may be an ideal solution.
