Installing artificial turf in your yard is a great way to boost your curb appeal. Once you've put in place a system with good-quality components like premium, non-toxic turf infill, your landscape will look and feel fresh for several years. All you need to do is carry out some minimal maintenance tasks involving brushing and light surface cleaning at least once a month to keep your artificial turf lush and green.

No Maintenance

A natural lawn is great, but it requires a lot of maintenance, which brings us to one of the most significant advantages of artificial turf. Because the lawn is not living, there is no need for a lot of maintenance. Low maintenance is one of the main advantages of artificial turf. The time and resources that you would normally dedicate to lawn maintenance can be channeled elsewhere. For instance, you will get a lot more time to relax and participate in some family activities.

Eliminates Puddling

Before installing artificial turf, the ground is first rolled and smoothed out. This eliminates grooves and valleys where water can accumulate in your yard. Most technicians also install small irrigation channels to help drain away water. This means even if it rains, you won't end up with puddles in your yard. While we are there, we can also mention how artificial turf doesn't require watering at all. The only time you will need water is when it's time to clean it. However, this is only done once or twice a month to get rid of dirt.

No Grass Stains

Children love playing outside. However, this presents a lot of challenges for parents. In most instances, when children spend time outside on the lawn, they tend to get unsightly grass or mud stains on their clothing and shoes. No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to stop them from sliding across the grass. This activity results in nasty green and brown streaks that are super hard to get out. As you might have guessed, you won't be facing this challenge with artificial turf. There's no real grass to stain their clothes, so your children can play freely without making life difficult for you.

These are some of the advantages of artificial turf. According to Pro Green, synthetic turf conserves approximately 40 gallons of water per square foot per year through the elimination of water used through household irrigation systems. Even in smaller towns, this is a savings of millions of gallons of water!Installing artificial turf is a great way to keep your yard looking fresh.
