Summer Artificial Lawn Care Tips - Home

You can keep your lawn cool and looking great over the summer by taking some basic maintenance steps. You can even water your artificial lawn in order to keep it cool in the heat!

One of the common misconceptions about artificial grass is that while it might look like natural grass, it doesnt provide the same level of comfort as traditional grass. Some homeowners feel as though they wont be able to enjoy an artificial turf lawn the same way that they have their old, natural grass lawn. While it is true that there are some fundamental differences between artificial lawns and natural grass lawns, smart homeowners can take steps to get the most out of their synthetic turf lawns and maximize their comfort and enjoyment.

Many of the perceived issues about synthetic lawns come from their use in the summer. Many people feel as though the rubber-based insulation will make the lawn too hot for people to walk around in bare feet during the summer. Homeowners can take some basic steps to avoid this problem. Making sure that high-traffic areas are under shade is one good way to avoid having hot lawns. Trees are great for the environment and can add extra beauty to your landscaping. Its easy to plant trees, even if you have an artificial residential turf lawn. Canopies and awnings can also supply shade which will keep your lawn cool and family protected from the sun.

You can also keep your lawn cool by watering your artificial grass. You dont need to water a synthetic lawn in order for it to look great thats one of the advantages of switching from natural grass! But spraying a little cool water on your artificial lawn during the summer will help it to keep cool for the rest of the day. It will also stop the crunching noise that some people dont like. The good news is that a quick spray is all you need to take care of the job, still saving you plenty of time and water versus natural grass lawns.

With artificial turf prices continuing to fall, theres never been a better time to consider making the switch to a synthetic lawn. You can have a great, beautiful lawn installed by the summer and not need to worry about daily watering or your lawn dying and becoming a brown, unsightly mess.

  1. Had the meadow that was my very small back garden lawn replaced yesterday morning with artificial grass from Trulawn. From first contact with Trulawn to grass being replaced has been very simple. All the staff I have dealt with have been polite, courteous and have done what they said they would do, when they said they would it.
