Is Artificial Grass Right for You?
Low Maintenance
Mr & Mrs Evans had been cutting their lawn for many years and had got to the age where they were finding it difficult to maintain their lawn, so low maintenance artificial turf was the perfect solution. Now they can enjoy their lawn without any stress or added strain to themselves. Artificial turf really is the answer to a great looking lawn all year round.
Ideal for Pets
John found it difficult to maintain and keep his grass looking good with owning a dog until he discovered artificial grass! People often ask whether artificial grass is suitable for pets and we’re here to tell you it is! Dogs treat artificial grass the same as normal grass, they find it soft and enjoyable to run and play on, the urine drains easily through the turf and faeces can easily be removed. What’s more is that there will be no more muddy paws to clean before the dog is allowed back in the house.
Sunlight & Tree Problems
Does your grass struggle to grow like Mr Butterworths? His grass kept getting destroyed by an enormous oak tree and lack of sunlight, therefore artificial grass was the perfect solution for all his problems. Here’s why: artificial grass does not need any natural resources like normal grass does to keep its look therefore big trees overlooking your grass wouldn’t be a problem.
Young Children
Mr and Mrs Ruck have 2 young children and wanted a garden which they can play on all year round without having to worry about traipsing mud back through the house and also giving them a safe place to play. They found Proud Gardens to be the perfect solution with our child friendly artificial grass turf.

Frequently asked questions
How long will an artificial lawn last?
If your artificial grass lawn is cared for correctly and installed by professionals, you can expect 20 years of reliable service. Quality artificial grass is UV stabilised, which means it will not be bleached by the sun and will also be highly resistant to damage. However, if perforations, accidents, or tears do occur, a member of our team will be able to help carry out repairs in a timely manner.
Can you lay an artificial grass on a slope?
Yes – our professional artificial grass installers will be able to deploy your desired type of grass on a slope. This may take a little more time than working on a conventional gardening surface, but it will be dependent on the gradient and location of the surface.
Is artificial grass suitable for both children and dogs?
Yes – artificial grass lawns are perfect for children and animals to play on and walk across. However, it is important to remember that cleaning up after your pets is a key consideration and any stains can be easily handled with a quick spot clean.
Is an artificial lawn abrasive to skin?
No – all our products are designed to be pleasant to the touch and will not result in rashes or burns on your skin. Our artificial grass products are perfect for play, picnics, and more – letting you try before you buy to ensure they are suitable for your unique needs.
Can water pass through an artificial lawn?
Yes – high quality artificial grass is designed to be permeable to water. This helps prevent the ‘pooling’ that can be common on low-quality products after rainfall. In fact, it drains better than actual grass – enabling you to go for a walk on your lawn shortly after a shower.
Does an artificial lawn require maintenance?
Every artificial grass lawn is designed to be low maintenance, but you will still have to provide occasional care to get the most out of it. This can involve removing leaves and debris from the surface – both of which can be handled by a monthly brush to ensure that your lawn stays pristine for longer.
Is an artificial grass environmentally friendly?
In many ways – yes. While it isn’t natural, artificial grass can do without the use of excessive water, mowing, is non-toxic, long lasting and reusable – letting you get the most out of your product without increasing your carbon footprint.
What can artificial grass be used for?
Anything a real grass can! Artificial grass is suitable for playing, walks, putting green, golf, picnics and more, letting you enjoy the look and feel of a natural lawn without worrying about ongoing maintenance and frustrating upkeep.
Does artificial grass drain like real grass?
Yes – in fact artificial grass is more porous than its natural alternative. When your lawn is installed, the ground will be prepared to leech water into the ground below with speed and efficiency, meaning that you no longer have to worry about the flooding, drainage and care required from natural grass.
Will weeds grow on the artificial grass?
While weeds cannot take root in plastic grass, they can sometimes be found growing on the fringes of your artificial lawn. These can come from birds, airborne seeds and more, and are easy to get rid of if they appear.
