Artificial Grass FAQs

Your Questions Answered!

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ASTROTURF, 3G AND ARTIFICIAL GRASS?

Initially, Astroturf was a brand-name for artificial grass, so they were the same thing. Nowadays though, Astroturf is used more to refer to sports pitches with artificial grass. 3G refers to the rubber crumb used to cushion the surface and allow a ball to bounce on Astroturf pitches. Artificial grass is a broad term to use for all man-made materials used to replicate natural grass.

HOW MUCH ARTIFICIAL GRASS WILL I NEED?

If you have a square or rectangular garden, just multiply the length of your garden by the width. It is more difficult to work out areas of gardens that aren’t squares or rectangles though, however we can carry this job out for you before giving you the artificial lawn cost.

HOW LONG DOES ARTIFICIAL GRASS LAST?

On average, artificial grass will have a life of around 8-12 years, during which there will be little maintenance required. The life of artificial grass will depend on how regularly it is used.

DOES ARTIFICIAL GRASS GET HOT IN SUMMER?

An artificial lawn can get hotter than natural grass, especially on hot summer days – although these aren’t too common in Essex! There are ways to reduce how hot your artificial grass gets though, and we would be happy to discuss these with you before or after installation.

WHAT IS THE BEST ARTIFICIAL GRASS?

The best artificial grass we offer is our Supreme 40mm product. This is a luxury artificial grass, which is soft underfoot and best replicates real grass. We also have three other types of artificial grass available too, and we can provide free artificial grass samples to you.

DOES ARTIFICIAL GRASS NEED CLEANING?

You will need to clean your artificial grass regularly, but this can be done simply by spraying the artificial grass with water. Some also choose to occasionally brush their artificial grass, just to clean away leaves and any other items that have built up. Cleaning your artificial grass is nowhere near as time consuming and labour intensive as mowing your lawn though!

WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL GRASS MADE OF?

The actual blades of grass are made using polyethylene. A substance called polypropylene is then used for the thatch layer, which provides a cushioned feel. The materials have been chosen as they’re long-lasting and, in the case of polyethylene, soft to touch.

DOES ARTIFICIAL GRASS FLATTEN?

You will find that artificial grass will flatten in areas of heavy footfall. Don’t worry though, as this is exceptionally easy to fix. Simply brush the grass once a month, which will encourage the flattened blades to return to their original positions.

WHERE DOES EXCESS WATER GO?

Quite simply, the fake grass is manufactured with tiny holes in it, allowing the water to seep away into the aggregate base below. In many cases, laying artificial lawn will actually provide better drainage than natural grass would.

IS FAKE GRASS SLIPPERY WHEN WET?

Top quality artificial lawns – such as all those supplied by us – are not very slippery when wet. In fact, artificial lawns are less slippery than natural grass lawns, as there’s no mud and also rainwater often drains away much faster.

WHY ESSEX ARTIFICIAL GRASS?

In recent years we have established Essex Artificial Grass as a leading installation company of artificial grass throughout Essex. This in part has been down to our desire to create the perfect garden for our customers on every project.

We are very passionate about our company delivering top service to our customers. After all, a lot of our work is based on recommendation and we want you to be happy.

We will continue to be available to you, on and off-site to answer any questions that you may have. It’s not a case of you simply meeting me on the site visit to never see me again after the job is booked in. I will be present when the installation is underway, working alongside my team, to ensure the installation is done to the highest standards so that you will be delighted with the results.

Coming from landscaping backgrounds, it is imperative to us that the groundwork side of the project is completed to perfection. We take pride in the fact that when we have completed an installation for a customer that we have left them with a professionally installed artificial lawn that they can enjoy for many years to come. We will explain on the initial site visit how we undertake our installations and what sets us apart from our competitors.

Essex Artificial Grass appreciates that customers are sometimes a little sceptical of artificial grass looking ‘too artificial’ and that is why we only offer our own bespoke products. The grass that we show our customers on the site visit are tried and tested and accommodate different budgets and uses of the lawn in question. Our customers are always delighted at the end of the project at just how natural their new lawn looks and we hope you will be too.

Our promise is that we will provide you with a great service. We will work professionally and efficiently to install your new lawn with minimal inconvenience and hopefully give you maximum satisfaction. Please take a look at a few testimonials we have received from customers in the recent past.

DOES YOUR GRASS COME WITH A GUARANTEE?

Yes. All of our products have a ten-year guarantee directly with EAG. Please see our Terms & Conditions page.

HOW MUCH DOES AN ARTIFICIAL GRASS INSTALLATION COST?

This depends on the artificial grass you choose to install. We have four different types of artificial grass – including luxury artificial grass – and they all have different prices. We’ll happily provide artificial grass samples, along with quotes, to help you decide which is best for you.

DO YOU KEEP A TIDY SITE DURING THE INSTALLATION PROCESS?

Absolutely. We treat each property as if it was our own, maintaining a tidy site, keeping noise and inconvenience to a minimum, not only for our customers but also for their surrounding neighbours. We are also experienced in working through houses with no side of rear access.

DO YOU TAKE CARE OF THE WHOLE SERVICE & REMOVING WASTE AFTERWARDS?

Of course. Once you have commissioned us to start your project, sit back and relax and we will take care of everything, just like a true professional company should.

CAN I ATTEMPT TO INSTALL ARTIFICIAL GRASS MYSELF?

We would strongly recommend that you get a professional installation from Essex Artificial Grass. We often get calls to rectify artificial lawns that have been laid to a poor standard, even from landscaping companies.

Artificial grass is an investment, but with the right installation, there’s no reason why you will not get a minimum of 10 years out of your new lawn. The groundwork alone is hard work and needs to be done correctly. For us, this is the most important part of the installation.

Not only that, we have all of the correct tools including heavy duty compactor plates and professional Stihl power brushes that add the professional touch at the end of a project that a stiff broom simply doesn’t achieve.

WILL PEOPLE NOTICE THAT OUR GRASS IS ARTIFICIAL?

We believe that we have selected the most natural looking products on the UK market. Our customers are always delighted at just how natural their new artificial lawn looks.

WHAT MAINTENANCE DOES MY NEW LAWN NEED?

Please take a look at our artificial grass maintenance page to ensure your new artificial lawn remains in top condition.

DOES ARTIFICIAL GRASS FADE IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT?

No, the materials that artificial grass is made from is UV stable.

IS ARTIFICIAL GRASS SUITABLE FOR PETS?

Absolutely. Pets love artificial grass and so do their owners.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I DISCOVER ANIMAL MESS ON MY LAWN?

We advise you to remove the mess from your artificial lawn ASAP and wash through the area with a hose. This should eliminate staining and odours.

CAN PESTS DIG UP MY ARTIFICIAL GRASS?

Yes. If you have problems with pests in your garden, please notify Dean on the site visit. We can take extra precautionary methods during the artificial grass installation to try and prevent your lawn being affected by animals such as badgers and foxes.

CAN ARTIFICIAL GRASS BE LAID OVER CONCRETE OR AN EXISTING DECK?

Possibly. Dean can best advise you on the site visit. If we can install over an existing surface area then this can drastically reduce the cost of an installation.

CAN I PLACE A BBQ ON MY ARTIFICIAL GRASS?

Although our artificial grass is fire resistant we wouldn’t suggest this. We can lay a small area of slabs to place your BBQ on.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR ME TO OBTAIN A QUOTATION?

Dean will make sure your quotation is returned to you within 48 hours of the initial site visit to ensure a speedy service.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

If yes, please contact Dean on 07522489311 or dean@essexartificialgrass.co.uk

How to stripe an artificial lawn

To achieve a sophisticated striped effect on an artificial lawn, a meticulous technique that involves the careful manipulation of the grass fibres is employed.

By using a stiff-bristled broom or a specifically designed brush, one can systematically bend the fibres in alternating directions. This method creates a visual contrast, producing the striped look through varying shades and textures as the grass bends away or towards the light source.

Regular upkeep and changing the pattern’s orientation not only maintain this effect but also prevent the fibres from settling in one direction, ensuring the lawn remains vibrant and visually appealing over time.

This approach adds a professional, polished look to any artificial lawn, echoing the manicured elegance of prestigious golf courses or sports fields, enhancing the overall aesthetic of outdoor spaces.
