When you consider the cost of maintaining a beautiful, healthy, manicured lawn you begin to realize that the cost of upkeep is likely to be rather high. You will need to purchase pesticides and other chemicals that damage the environment, as well as various types of garden equipment. You also need to think about the time investment necessary to keep the lawn looking its best no matter what season it may be.

But you could decide to use synthetic grass instead. When you use artificial grass your lawn will always look look. You will also save your hard earned cash since you will not need to buy any of the products that would be necessary for a natural lawn.

There have been many technological improvements since fake grass made it's appearance a little over fifty years ago. Today's artificial lawn are made using the best technology. Coupled with the fact that these lawns are eco-friendly, it is clear to see why so many prefer them.

Modern fake grass looks incredibly realistic and has come a long way since the '60s and '70s. It is far easier to maintain, which is good news for those folks who do not have the time to maintain their lawn on an ongoing basis. Take a look at some great reasons to think about installing fake rather than natural grass:

1. Fake Grass Is Almost Maintenance Free

Depending on the landscape it can be practically impossible to find the perfect real grass option that is also low-maintenance. Natural grass requires watering, mowing, weeding, and so on, which means you know what you will be doing some weekends! Alternatively, if you choose fake turf, it will look good and hardly need maintenance. Because of this, you can look forward to enjoying your lawn rather than working on it during your spare time.

2. Real Grass Is Vulnerable

Thanks to weather conditions and lots of foot traffic, some areas of your natural lawn are bound to end up worn and dull. However, artificial lawns are designed to withstand heavy foot traffic, which is why they are ideal for schoolyards, stadiums, playgrounds, and so on. You also do not have to worry about whether the fake grass is safe for your children and pets, either, because the best ones are non-toxic.

3. Unlike Real Grass, The Fake Is Versatile

The versatility of fake grass is seen in the fact that it withstands all kinds of weather. This means that you will be able to have a beautiful fake lawn no matter what the conditions are.

4. Fake Grass Is Eco-Friendly

Natural grass requires toxic fertilizers and chemicals which is not good for the environment. If you have a synthetic lawn you know that you are not causing any harm to the environment whatsoever. Artificial grass uses recycled and sustainable products in its manufacture.

Real Grass Doesn't Always Look Good

Not only is synthetic turf low on maintenance, versatile, durable, eco-friendly, saves you time, and saves you money, but it is also good to look at. Picture some of the world's best golf courses. Many now make use of artificial turf. Your synthetic lawn should look natural and lush throughout the year.
