This Daleside 40mm Artificial Grass gives any garden a lifelike, established appearance and a comfy feel. A combination of different green and brown hues come together to create a realistic look that adds a brilliant lively look even in shady and poor soil areas.
Create a more natural looking lawn with this grass’s ‘C’ shaped yarn and curled base fibres. The special shaped grass blades also help the 38mm pile spring back into shape after a foot fall. This amazing artificial grass continues to look and feel fantastic no matter the season and with no need to mow or water it is incredibly low maintenance.
Artificial grass is a wonderful alternative to real turf especially in areas where real grass can’t be used. This grass can be laid over concrete, decking, balconies or even roof and looks just as good in shaded and hard to reach areas. Drainage through this grass is easy with its drainage holes in the robust backing.
This child and pet friendly grass is made using cadmium and lead free materials.
Installing artificial grass is a straightforward DIY project for most gardens, patios, and balconies. The key to a long-lasting, natural-looking finish is preparing a solid, well-drained base before the grass is rolled out.
For soil areas, the existing turf is removed and replaced with a compacted sub-base (typically MOT Type 1 or granite dust),followed by a sharp sand or grano dust laying course. This creates a smooth, stable surface that prevents dips and improves drainage. For hard surfaces such as concrete, the grass can usually be fitted directly using adhesive.
Once the base is ready, the grass is rolled out, trimmed to fit, joined where required, and secured around the edges. Brushing the fibres upright and adding kiln-dried sand (if recommended by the manufacturer) helps the pile sit naturally and improves durability.
Most installations are completed in a day for an average garden.

Artificial grass is designed to be low maintenance, but a small amount of regular care will keep it looking its best for years.
For general upkeep, simply remove leaves and debris with a stiff brush or leaf blower and brush the pile against the grain to keep the fibres upright. Occasional rinsing with water will wash away dust and pollen and help the lawn stay fresh.
For homes with pets, solid waste should be removed as normal and the area lightly hosed down. Most modern artificial grasses have a permeable backing, allowing liquids to drain through easily. A mild detergent or artificial grass cleaner can be used for a deeper clean if needed.
To prevent flattening in high-traffic areas, brush the surface periodically. With this basic care, a good quality artificial lawn will maintain its colour and shape for many years.
