Having a patch of green in your property can do wonders for its curb appeal and overall value. With constant threats of drought and abnormally dry conditions in recent years, however, it’s becoming a lot more taxing and costly just trying to maintain an upkeep of these lawns.
See, live grass entails a lot of work. From making sure t hat your soil is healthy enough for planting to watering it regularly to keep it looking fresh and vibrant, to investing in DIY equipment or professional services to make sure it keeps its aesthetic appeal, all of these eventually seem like too much trouble for a plot of grassland in your property.
Fortunately, there is a way now for you to still enjoy the beauty of having green grass on your lawn, all year ‘round, but without all the encumbrances that come along with maintaining it. Here are some of the many benefits you can derive from making the switch from live grass to artificial turf in Scottsdale or elsewhere.
All Year Long
If you want a literal carpet of grass all year long, you’ve got it with artificial turf. The great thing about this is that you don’t have to feed the soil, mow the lawn, or even water it. Because it’s synthetic, you literally just put it on and then leave it as it is.
Of course, it would be great if you can wash it clean once in a while, just to keep things clean and hygienic for everyone. The important thing about this, though, is that you won’t have to put in as much work, time, and effort only to make sure that you have a good-looking lawn outside. It doesn’t matter if it’s winter, spring, summer, or fall; drought or rainy season, you’re still going to be that “other side” where the grass is always green.
Versatility
Another great thing about artificial turf is that you can literally put it anywhere. From front lawns to playing fields, you can simply have it installed and voila! You have a “fresh” patch of green. You can even install it for your roof top garden, which is perfect for those that do not have the capacity to support the weight of an actual lawn. Now you can have your own cozy roof deck setup without having to worry about structural problems.
You can also use it for that stubborn patch of land that simply refuses to grow live grass for some reason. If you want an interior garden right in your home, this could be a perfect alternative too. Simply put, there are many different uses for artificial turf that you would definitely find useful.
