Has your natural grass seen better days?
Shorter days and colder temperatures slow grass growth and cause unsightly brown or bald patches.
Accumulated snow and ice can create a layer that suffocates natural grass. And when it starts to thaw, muddy puddles can form.
Keeping on top of damage and maintaining real turf becomes more challenging and labour-intensive in the winter.
Perhaps now would be a good time to upgrade to artificial grass, instead?
As a leading flooring specialist with a superb reputation for supplying artificial grass Nottingham-wide, we understand the benefits fake turf can bring homeowners year-round.
Read on to find out what makes artificial grass (astroturf) a resilient choice for winter and beyond.
Benefits of artificial grass in the winter months
Weather-resistant and durable
Artificial grass is designed to withstand extreme weather conditions.
It is much more durable than natural turf and can hold its own against rain, snow, frost, ice, and freezing temperatures.
Whereas natural grass can become waterlogged or patchy after torrential rain, there won’t be any muddy puddles on your fake lawn.
After leaving snow and ice to melt naturally, a quick brush is all it takes to get your astroturf looking (and feeling) as good as new again.
Low maintenance
From seeding and mowing to weeding and fertilising, real grass requires a lot of upkeep throughout the seasons – including the winter.
But this isn’t the case with artificial turf.
It will stay pristine with minimal effort. At most, you’ll need to remove leaves with a rake or leaf blower to keep your garden looking tidy and prevent debris from blocking your drainage system.
Mud-free
Tired of your garden being soggy and waterlogged?
Poor drainage can lead to large puddles and your children and pets may traipse mud across the kitchen floor after playing outside.
Make muddy footprints (or pawprints) a thing of the past with an artificial lawn.
Made from plastic fibres, it’s permeable and allows rainwater and moisture to drain away quickly, preventing slippery puddles and mud. As a result, your lawn remains clean, dry, and usable throughout the winter.
Stays green
With chilly temperatures, reduced sunlight hours, and more humidity, natural grass struggles to maintain its colour in the wet, gloomy months of the year – leaving your garden dull and bare.
Artificial grass doesn’t have this problem.
You can enjoy a luscious green lawn whatever the weather – even when the temperatures plummet and natural grass goes dormant (bald and brown).
And the best bit? You hardly have to lift a finger!
Upgrade to artificial grass today
Don’t let your outdoor space become uninviting.
Artificial turf is a winter-resilient option for homeowners keen to embrace a low-maintenance alternative to real grass.
When an artificial lawn is installed, your garden may be out of bounds for a few days while the work is carried out.
Since you’re unlikely to spend as much time outdoors during the chilly months as you would when the temperatures rise, winter is the perfect time to install it.
