Artifcial Turf Randburg
What is Artificial Turf?
Artificial turf is a surface of synthetic fibers made to look like natural grass. It is most often used in arenas for sports that were originally or are normally played on grass. However, it is now being used on residential lawns and commercial applications as well.
Artificial lawn grass consists of synthetic, grass-like fibers or yarn – often polypropylene or polyethylene. Quality artificial lawn grass consists of several layers, including backing, cushioning, two or three drainage layers, and infill. This is often made from substances like recycled rubber tires or natural cork. If you are thinking about installing an artificial lawn, the pros and cons of using artificial grass for yards should be carefully considered.
Artificial Lawn Pros
- Choice of several colors, styles, and heights so you can choose the artificial grass that looks most natural in your environment.
- No watering. This is an important consideration during the current drought (and saves time, too).
- No need for fertilizer, which means no toxic chemicals seeping into the groundwater.
- No need for mowing.
Artificial Lawn Cons
- Artificial lawn is an expensive, long-term investment. However, the cost should be balanced with the time and cost involved in caring for a natural lawn.
- Some people say artificial grass emits an unpleasant, rubbery odor on hot days.
- Although the grass is low-maintenance, it tends to collect dust and leaves.
- As of yet, very little research exists regarding artificial lawn’s impact on earthworms, insects, or soil microbes.
Artificial Lawn Care
Artificial lawn care means periodic cleaning, although people who live in dusty areas or those who have young children or pets will probably need to clean more often. Most dust and debris are easily removed with a blower, flexible garden rake, a broom with stiff bristles, or a garden hose. Occasionally, it may be necessary to sweep the grass with a broom to keep it standing upright in a natural fashion, especially if your family enjoys laying on the grass and it becomes compacted. Artificial lawn grass is stain-resistant and most problem areas can be cleaned with soap and water or vinegar and water. A vinegar mixture also works as a disinfectant.

Got Questions? We Got Answers!
Artificial Grass has been steadily increasing in popularity over the past few years. It provides a simple and long-lasting solution for lowering water bills and increasing your home’s value.
Below are the most common uses of artificial grass and synthetic turf:
- Lawn & Landscape Turf
- Pet Turf [Artificial Grass For Dogs]
- Sports fields
- Backyard Putting Greens
The cost of installing artificial grass in your home or business depends on a number of factors. Generally speaking, pricing is based on square footage, the type of turf used, and the other materials used during the installation. With so many variables affecting artificial grass installation costs, providing a fixed “Cost” isn’t possible, and would be doing you a disservice.
That said, we do have an artificial grass cost calculator that you can use to get an idea of the cost based on the square footage of your turf installation.

Synthetic grass lawns allow you to have a pristine yard, without all of the hassles that a normal sod lawn requires. No mowing, no chemicals, no weeds and it’s weather resistant. It’s great for company and it’s durability is unmatched when it comes to high foot traffic.
Quality synthetic turf includes UV inhibitors that are added to the fibers to inhibit fading. While a very small amount of fading can still occur over a long period of time, reputable artificial grass installation companies will offer a warranty that covers potential fading. For example, at Ideal Artificial Grass, we offer a 15-year warranty against fading.
The lifespan of your synthetic turf lawn will depend on several factors, including the quality of the turf product, the quality of the installation and the amount of traffic it endures over the years. Depending on how these factors come together and the amount of proper maintenance it receives, you can generally expect manufactured grass to last somewhere between 10 and 20 years. You should see a higher-quality turf lawn last closer to 20 years.
We’re a highly collaborative and supportive team, coming together on every project to ensure our clients get the very best result.
