Buy Artificial Grass With Confidence

What Makes a Good Garden Lawn Grass?

The variables that determine whether a garden lawn looks good in year five are fibre density, pile structure, and colour variation. Dense fibres support each other upright under load. Structured blade profiles hold shape and recover after foot traffic. Multi-toned colour prevents the flat, uniform look that reads immediately as artificial. These are the criteria we assess on every grass before it makes our range.

How to Choose the Right Pile Height

Pile height affects both appearance and performance. A 40mm pile like Halo looks full and lush from any viewing distance. A 35mm pile like Vela hits a proportionate sweet spot for larger gardens. A 25mm pile like Elia gives a crisp, manicured contemporary finish. The honest guide: shorter piles suit formal or contemporary spaces; longer piles suit traditional family lawns. Neither is more durable — in the Signature Range, fibre quality is consistent across all three.

What’s the Difference Between the Signature and Everyday Ranges?

Both are assessed against the same NeoGrass standards. The Signature Range uses bio-based backing and denser fibre construction — built for the most demanding gardens and the longest lifespan. The Everyday Range uses polyurethane backing — solid performance for typical family gardens at a fair price. If your garden sees heavy daily use from children, dogs, or concentrated foot traffic, the Signature Range is the recommendation. For a standard family garden used regularly, the Everyday Range handles it well.

How to Test Artificial Grass Before You Buy

No photograph or description replaces a sample in your own garden. Take it outside into natural daylight — not indoor lighting. View it from a standing distance, not close up. Check for shine at different angles. Compare it in both sun and shade. A grass that looks convincing in your garden will look convincing once it’s laid. Our sample form includes a short quiz about your garden — we’ll recommend the right grasses before they arrive.

How Long Does Artificial Grass Last?

A well-chosen artificial grass, correctly installed, will typically last 10–15 years. The variables that affect lifespan most are fibre quality, how heavily the lawn is used, and whether it receives basic regular maintenance. Every grass in our range is backed by a 10-year NeoGrass guarantee. The most reliable way to maximise lifespan is to choose the right grass for how you actually use your garden — not the most expensive one, and not the cheapest one.
