If you need more than one piece of grass to be joined together, let us know when you order, and we’ll do our best to match them by cutting from the same roll.

The easiest way is to measure the width and length of the area you want to cover with artificial grass, multiply them together and write your measurements down. Make sure you use the most comprehensive and longest points of the area. It’s better to buy too much and cut bits away rather than buying more you need to stick together.
Sometimes, weeds and plants can poke up through the membrane beneath your artificial grass, particularly if it’s not fitted correctly. We recommend treating the area thoroughly with weed killer before you lay the artificial grass and then twice a year after that.
Yes! Provided that you choose a suitable range, artificial grass is perfectly safe for both children and pets. Softer, well-cushioned grasses are ideal for kids who like to play outside regularly. Any mess made by animals can be picked up in the usual way and washed off easilywith warm water.
Keeping artificial grass clean is simple.

You can put artificial grass down on just about any surface, including an existing lawn, a decked patio or hard-concreted areas. Wherever you install it, ensure the drainage is good and check out our installation guide beforehand.
