Choosing the right artificial grass for your garden

The latest, realistic artificial grasses

Artificial grass has come a long way since the invention of ‘Astroturf’ in 1966. It was so named because it was first installed in the Astrodome in Houston Texas and although a brand name, this became the byword for synthetic grass. Nowadays, artificial grass is very different. It can be supplied in exceptionally realistic styles, and at an affordable price for residential use to create a low maintenance lawn that will look amazing all year round.

After 50 years of development, artificial grass can now be difficult to tell apart from the real thing, with variations in blade colour, realistic thatching and complete UV light resistance.

Huge choice and up to 5 metre widths

At More For Your Floor we offer a huge choice of over 30 different artificial grass products and each and every one offers fantastic benefits compared to natural grass. We offer grasses in 2 metre, 3 metre, 4 metre and 5 metre roll widths x any length you require to allow you to fill the largest and smallest of spaces with little, or no wastage. Our range of artificial grass is designed to suit every budget, with affordable options as well as top of the range premium grasses, all with different blade densities, weights and pile heights to suit every application. And we believe our prices are the lowest on the market. We buy in huge volume and pass the savings on to our customers.

Safe for children and pets

All of our grasses are safe for children and pets with no dangerous or toxic chemicals. Soft playing areas can be created with ease and you can make them even softer and safer with the addition of optional shockpad underlay. Plus, unlike a natural lawn, there is no danger of harm from pesticides or fertilisers and artificial grass is pollen free too.

Low maintenance and practicality

Low maintenance provides more time to spend with family and friends for relaxation and activities; no more mowing, watering, weeding, or fertilising. And no more muddy, or bald patches either. Artificial grass is extremely hard wearing too and can be used for all sorts of play and activity, including tennis courts, football pitches and more. We also offer a dedicated ‘golf grass’ specifically manufactured to create putting greens that will give you a green worthy of Gleneagles.

UV protected and water permeable backing

All of our grasses are resistant to UV rays, so will maintain their lush green colour for many, many years to come. The tough and permeable latex backing on our grasses allows water to naturally drain through to the sub soil avoiding the risk of surface water puddling.

Different styles of grass

As a general rule, you will pay more for a more realistic grass, which has a high blade density, high overall weight and longer blade height (pile). All but our most basic, budget grasses mimic the realism of natural grass and each is ideally suited to creating a natural looking, aesthetically pleasing lawn. Take a look at the descriptions on our artificial grass listings for guidance on the best grasses to meet your needs.

Use on patios, decking, balconies and even roofs

Our grasses can be applied to almost any surface. You can replace an existing lawn, or create new grass areas on patios, or on decking, or even a small balcony to bring a fresh look to your outdoor space, however large or small.

Easy to install

Installing artificial grass is a fairly simple DIY job. It is very easy to cut and can be trimmed into all sorts of curves and interesting shapes for a creative looking lawn. In just a few hours you can transform a tired looking patch of soil, or a worn patio or decking into a perfect lush lawn fit for a king. It can be glued, staked or pinned with ease and lengths can be seamlessly joined with our fixing packs. Be sure to check out our measuring guide.
