Natural grass grows freely across our country; indeed, it’s a staple on most properties and around most homes. However, although real grass is an excellent option for backyards, sometimes artificial grass is the better way to go.
You may be wondering — where can you even lay artificial grass on a residential property? Isn’t it used only for football fields in huge stadiums?
The answer is a resounding no! While stadiums certainly do use artificial grass, it can also be used in other locations, such as patios, interior gardens, golf courses, playgrounds, and swimming pools, to name a few. While many of these places have traditionally used natural grass, artificial grass is increasingly gaining in popularity.
The Playground
Think of your child’s backyard play area. Many parents bring in mulch or rubber pieces, but both can be dangerous. While better than some other surfaces, mulch and rubber pieces can get into your child’s mouth or eyes, and they’re ultimately not as soft as synthetic grass.
On the other hand, installing artificial grass in your child’s play area ensures they will have a safe, soft surface to play on. Better Than Real Grass enhances our products with anti-bacterial safeguards to dampen bacterial growth and stop mildew. Plus, artificial grass is easy to clean, low effort to maintain, non-toxic, and retains its gorgeous green color all year-round.
The Pool
Now, consider your pool. While some people may want real grass bordering their pool, the problems are hard to dismiss. When pool water splashes out and onto natural grass, the chemicals will damage it. Also, real grass is host to harmful particulates, insects, and bacteria that can make their way into your pool.
Using artificial grass in your swimming pool area opens countless doors. You can style it the way you want, but it will retain its dark, rich green color all the time. Artificial grass can be just what your pool area needs to truly pop!
Better Than Real Grass’s expert team knows how to make your poolside artificial grass stay thick and soft, even when installed over concrete.
Outdoor Deck or Patio
Finally, picture your deck or patio. Natural grass can be hard to keep up with in these areas, and the constant maintenance often feels like too much work. Installing artificial grass can help.
Since it neither grows nor changes, artificial grass needs next to no maintenance. The Better Than Real Grass team will build a base for the synthetic grass to lay on, so your deck and patio drainage is likely to improve.
As you can see, artificial grass can be used for much more than just football stadiums and front yards.
