Artificial Grass Cost

More and more people are discovering that the secret answer to a picture perfect lawn is going with artificial grass. It’s proving to be the smart answer with more and more frequency and regularity and is seen as a smart investment both in terms of ongoing cost savings and even in house valuations. For ongoing costs it does not require regular watering and with more homes being on metered water there is a direct cost saving to be made there. For those households who pay lawn maintenance companies there are costs of scarifying, weeding, fertilising and feeding which again has a direct cost and can involve the use of strong chemicals. Those costs are gone once you’ve replaced your natural grass with artificial turf. It also takes care of other potentially costly landscaping and general hygiene factors. No more time spend moving the lawn, wrestling with your dog trying to wipe its paws before it enters your clean home. How many hours are spend each year dealing with these issues? So factoring in the cost of your time. Overall, the up front cost of artificial grass is well worth the investment and is much, much lower in the long term than maintaining natural grass.

Artificial Grass Installation Cost

As advocates of artificial grass we try to keep out installation costs as competitive as possible. Clearly there are economies of scale for larger areas so for installation of 80m2 and greater a cost of around £45m2 for a good mid range turf, whereas an area of less than 20m2 would be £55-£70m2. Pricing will vary on the final grass chosen and the slope, shape and state of the ground - so we always recommend a survey before giving a final fixed quote.

If you only look at the initial cost for artificial grass installation, you may be put off as it's unlikely you've actually put pen to paper and accurately listed the costs of maintaining your current lawn. Actual water costs, outside maintenance, weed killer, fertiliser, re-seeding and patching and finally your time. What's you're current hourly rate and what's your time worth? More time to relax, socialise, spend time with the kids - what's the value of that? The cost of artificial grass can range widely so there is likely to be something for your budget. Cheap artificial grass is available but you will get what you pay for, we would only recommend  this for areas which are less visible and lower usage. You will find fake grass costs ranging from around £7 to £47 and this relates to the cost of artificial grass per square metre. Just like carpets you also need to be aware of the size of your garden in relation to the size of the synthetic grass roll, there may be some unavoidable wastage. You then have to factor the cost of artificial grass installation, which again will vary on the surface on which you are fitting on to. You can clearly see why we would always want to arrange a consultation with you as this is a reasonable investment and it needs to be exactly what you're after. However as a general indicator to replace an existing turf lawn, with aggregate for drainage with a good quality fake grass, most companies would be looking to charge between £65-£90 per square metre all in.

Cost of Artificial Grass - make the switch

There are several reasons that more and more homeowners, business owners and land managers are making the switch from natural grass to artificial turf every year. Did you know that the rate of use of synthetic grass for landscaping and recreation is increasing by 10% to 15% here in the UK. While it looks great and continues to look better every year, the real reason people make the switch is because the long term costs are that much lower. This is true not only for lawns but also child play areas, dog play areas, pool surroundings, rooftop party spots, indoor and outdoor putting greens and decorative between areas.

Artificial grass installation costs vs. long term cost savings

The immediate and only downside to making the switch from natural grass to synthetic grass is the admittedly steep upfront cost. However, after this cost is paid then it is clear sailing, most likely for decades as artificial grass cannot be beat when it comes to long term costs. You won’t spend anywhere near the amount of money you currently do for the next year, five years, ten years and so on. Let’s face it: long term upkeep for natural grass is expensive. You should think about making the switch today! Once that first cost is taken care of, your lawn is basically cost free for the next couple of decades.
