Artificial grass requires very little maintenance compared to natural grass. It requires occasional rinsing with a hose to remove any debris, brushing to keep the blades upright and a brush to remove more stubborn marks if required.
Giving your artificial grass a good deep-down clean with a hard-bristled brush once a month will get rid of any hard-to-remove dirt and grime, this can also help to fluff up your artificial grass. Even for more stubborn stains, we don’t recommend any chemical cleaning products, only mild soapy water or a water/vinegar solution.
For more serious spills like petrol or oil, clean up as much as possible before using a mineral turpentine to remove the oily substance. Once this is applied, hose it off thoroughly.
If you have something sticky on your artificial grass, for example chewing gum, you can apply ice cubes so the gum goes hard, then simply scrape it off. If it’s stubborn, try olive oil and then a dry cloth.
Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do for burns, so it’s best to keep naked flames, cigarettes and anything that could start a fire away from your artificial grass. If you have a burn mark on your artificial grass, call us so we can repair it for you.

Fake grass can be more cost-effective than natural grass. While the initial installation cost of artificial grass may be higher, the ongoing expenses for maintaining natural grass (such as watering, mowing, fertilising, and pest control) can accumulate over time.
Artificial grass requires minimal maintenance and has lower water consumption, resulting in potential savings on water bills. Additionally, artificial grass eliminates the need for expensive equipment and regular maintenance services associated with natural grass.
