There's a lot of information out there about artificial grass, and it can be confusing. Here are the questions we're asked most, so you know exactly what you're getting.

High-quality artificial grass is UV-stabilised to resist fading, so it keeps its colour for years. All our grass comes with a signed 10-year manufacturer's warranty. Watch out for sole traders who promise ten years and then disappear without ever handing over a written warranty.

They can, but it's often not recommended. Laying the grass, fixing the edges and joining seams are best left to a specialist installer for a finish that lasts. Above all, look for a signed 10-year guarantee from a registered limited company rather than a sole trader.

The bit you never see
A lawn is only as good as what's under it.
