When you're ready to lay your grass, keep these tips in mind:
- 2m and 4m cuts can be used interchangeably, but 5m cuts can only be used with other 5m cuts.
- Match the pile direction of each cut when joining the pieces for a seamless appearance.
- Add a weed membrane to prevent weed growth or a shockpad underlay for extra comfort underfoot.
Maintenance
Say goodbye to mowing, weeding, and treating artificial grass is extremely low maintenance. All you need to do is sweep, rake, and hose your lawn to keep it looking as luscious as the day you installed it.
If you'd like to give your lawn a spruce up, take a look at our guide to maintaining artificial grass and keep these tips in mind:
- Avoid placing heavy furniture or objects on your lawn for an extended period of time. This will prevent the blades from flattening and your grass from becoming uneven.
- Hose away any messes as soon as possible to prevent staining and bacteria buildup.
- To minimise the risk of fires, never leave mirrors, glass tables, and other reflective objects facing your lawn.
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.
