So you have your dream home, 2 dogs, and 3.5 kids… everything is perfect until you need to do yard work that is! However, imagine getting to skip that chore as well as many other chores that come along with having natural grass. Instead of spending your weekend mowing, fertilizing, and watering your lawn, you can get back to enjoying it with your friends and family. Homeowners all over the world are enjoying the benefits of artificial grass. Below are some of the many benefits homeowners get to experience.
Lawn Health
One of the most enjoyed benefits of artificial grass is not having to worry about your lawn every week. A natural lawn requires much of your time, money, and attention in order to maintain the health and appearance of your landscape. Lawn maintenance isn’t as simple as it looks. Many factors go into it such as the mow height, how much you water and how often, and how much you feed your lawn. All these factors determine whether or not your lawn attracts disease or other issues. With synthetic turf you don’t have to worry about lawn diseases, just an occasional brush through will do the trick.
Weeds & Pests
We know you’re tired of the weeds. They are such a pain and unsightly. Not to mention they attract certain uninvited pests. Natural grass attracts grubs and other insects that thrive in natural soil. Insects attract other insects and in some cases larger pests, like raccoons, gophers, and snakes. This is another perk of having an artificial lawn because it’s literally a weed-proof foundation and doesn’t attract pests. Fewer problems equal less time on maintenance.
Mud and Puddles
After running your sprinkler system or during heavy rain months you may have some puddles and lots of mud. Your kids or dogs can easily track this mud in your home. Cleaning a mud mess in your home isn’t fun. Heavy rains can cause your lawn to be overwatered. With artificial grass, you don’t need to worry about flooding or mud issues because synthetic turf has an excellent drainage system. Plus, if you didn’t already know, artificial turf doesn’t require water so a sprinkler system is unnecessary.
No More Fertilizer or Pesticides
With an artificial lawn, you don’t need fertilizers or pesticides. Yay! You can clap for that… saving money and protecting our environment! The money you save adds up, which you can allocate elsewhere. The best part is, you won’t need to worry about your lawn dying or it getting infested with pests and insects. This makes it the safest option for your kids and pets to enjoy year-round!
Avoid Water Restriction Fines
Due to the ongoing drought issue, you may find yourself restricted by being able to water your lawn resulting in a brown lawn instead of a green one. Maintaining a natural lawn requires water, no matter how you look at it. With water becoming more expensive every year, it may end up costing you a pretty penny to keep your lawn green or from fines if you accidentally use too much water. Synthetic turf can help you avoid this risk altogether since it doesn’t need water to maintain its beautiful appearance.
Eliminate Pollution and Conserve Water
Millions of people every weekend use chemicals, gas-powered gardening equipment, including mowers, edgers, and blowers, resulting in a frustrating amount of pollution. Artificial turf doesn’t require any chemicals nor pollution causing equipment in order to look amazing. This eliminates the effects that pollution has on the environment. Artificial turf also saves tons of water daily! All that is needed is an occasional rinse if you have pets. Lowering your water usage and skipping out on all that lawn maintenance saves you money month after month.
