Artificial grass is an alternative solution to a natural lawn. It needs very little upkeep as you won’t need to mow it or handle mud during the winter. Nowadays, artificial grass is comprised of fibres and infills of a mixture of sand and granules of recycled rubber. They've frequently been made use of in industrial situations, but are becoming more and more well known in people’s properties. You can lay artificial grass on virtually any surface, irrespective of whether it is flat or sloping. It is safe for children and pets, and it also drains like real grass so you will not end up with puddles. It is environmentally friendly as you won’t need to water it and there is no need to treat it with pesticides or feeds. You should get as much as 20 years out of your artificial grass with no upkeep and hassle. It will not fade or flatten with time, and it'll retain its colour right till the end of its life.

Bedlington is a town in South East Northumberland, England. A former mining town, it is approximately 20 miles to the north of Newcastle upon Tyne and 4.5 miles southeast of the county town of Morpeth, as well as being close to locations such as Ashington, Blyth and Cramlington. The town is most often recognised for giving its name to the Bedlington Terrier, a type of dog. As per the 2011 Census, the town has a population of around 18,470. Since the closure of the iron works along with the coal mines, it is mostly a dormitory town for all those employed in the adjacent towns and cities. Bedlington Old Hall, a 15th-century building which is typically claimed to be the most important historic building of Bedlington, was demolished in 1959 to be replaced with council offices. Nevertheless, several sites of historic significance and local interest continue to exist in the area. A significant historic building still standing is the Anglican parish church of St. Cuthbert. It's claimed that this dedication has been taken from an event which occurred in 1069. While escaping northwards from William the Conqueror's army, it is believed that the monks of Durham laid the body of St. Cuthbert inside the town's church. Hartford Hall is also situated inside the parish, in addition to a huge amount of the riverside land in between Bedlington and the Hall constitutes Bedlington County Park, which is a designated local nature reserve. Residents continue to attend a weekly market in the town on Thursdays, which is held at the market place.

On a hot summer’s day, we often seek our garden lawn as a cooling place to sit and get some relief from the sun. However, since artificial grass is made from plastic, lots of people ask whether it gets hot, or whether it stays like natural grass. The answer is, it’s somewhere in between.
Of course, we all know to stay in the shade in midday sun and this is when your artificial grass will be at its hottest. Unless it is an extremely hot say and your lawn is in direct sunlight, you should still be able to walk on your artificial grass. The best thing to do is test it using the back of your hand before anyone walks over it with bare feet or children go to play on it.
In the shade, artificial grass should always maintain a cool temperature, although it will never have that refreshing feel of cold grass on a hot day. It will also cool down extremely quickly as the day goes on, so if your grass does get too hot it shouldn’t be unusable for too long.
Artificial grass has to meet high safety standards and most are UV stabilised, which means that they can withstand high temperatures without melting or getting extremely hot. It’s worth remembering that hot countries like Dubai use artificial grass, so the occasional hot day in a British summer should be enough for artificial grass to handle!
Laying artificial grass on concrete needs a slightly different approach to if you’re installing it over soil. The good news is that it’s much less labour intensive, as you don’t need to do any digging or levelling.
Ideally, your concrete base should be in good condition, and have an adequate fall on it to provide efficient drainage. If it doesn’t, you might have to do some repair work or drill some drainage holes first.
When you’re ready to start, begin by cleaning your concrete base. Use a jet wash or a hose and brush to dislodge and disperse any dirt or plant growth. Once it’s clean, leave it to dry completely.
Then, you need to fit an underlay - usually it’s made of foam. This will provide padding to make your artificial grass softer and more comfortable to walk on. It will also help to level out any slopes on uneven parts on the concrete. Make sure it’s a good-quality underlay that’s permeable – if it’s not, you could end up with damp artificial grass and nasty smells as it will hold moisture. Roll out the underlay and cut it to shape, taping any separate sections together.
Next, use an adhesive to secure the underlay to your concrete. Make sure you leave gaps in the adhesive to allow water to drain off easily. Leave the glue to dry, then you can start laying your grass.
Roll out your grass like you did with your underlay, cutting it to shape and joining any separate sections together with artificial grass tape. Then glue the grass to the underlay. Leave it dry, give the grass a brush, and it’ll be ready to use!
