  • If you haven't seen the latest range of artificial lawns you would be amazed at the quaility. Whilst I agree that nothing can compare to the real thing however given the right circumstances and conditions and clients requirements it can be an excellent alternative. Artificial grass doesn't just have to be used as a replacement lawn, it can look stunning when used on any number of alternative surfaces.

    I am proud to install artificial lawns, for some clients it is a lifestyle choice, pets, or particular ground conditions etc. For whatever reason they desire to have an artificial lawn we will undertake a full installation that can not be matched on quality of product or service.

    There has been a dramatic rise in the use of artificial grass in landscaping and gardens and given that B&Q estimates that they will sell over 10,000sq m of artificial grass this year we will be seeing a lot more of it!
    Source http://www.hortweek.com/channel/Turf/article/985643/Artificial-turf... Unfortunately I think most of the people purchasing from B&Q will be sadly disappointed with the quality and some doggy home installations so perhaps the die hard gardeners will have some reinstatement work over the coming months.

    To answer Kieran's question, I believe that we are the leading installers in Surrey, Berkshire and Hampshire but will travel to most areas if requested. I have four installations in Farnham alone that are scheduled for the next few weeks and each one of these have challenging requirements where an artificial lawn is particularly well suited.

    End of the day it is horses for courses.

  • Hi

    I think graeme @ BGS uses it a lot there is a big company near us called as good as grass.
    They do a lot of work fitting it in Cyprus at holiday homes, they have also used it as a hedge near us.
  • Now you are swearing Martin!! g as g!!

    Whilst I wouldn't like to see the councils using this to replace our wonderful grass verges, I can however foresee selective locations adopting artificial grass as a sensible alternative.

    I perhaps should add that I would also be available for installs in Cyprus and other holiday destinations :-)
    • Lol you must have beat me to that comment.

      One day some rich oil baron will ask me to mow his lawn in dubai..... One day!! :)
