Artificial grass is an alternative selection to a natural lawn. It requires very little maintenance as you will not have to mow it or deal with mud in the winter. Nowadays, artificial grass is composed of fibres and infills of a mixture of sand and granules of recycled rubber. They have typically been made use of in commercial situations, but they are becoming a lot more popular in people’s homes. You are able to lay artificial grass on virtually any surface, regardless of whether it's flat or sloping. It is safe for children and pets, and it also drains like real grass so you won’t end up with puddles. It is environmentally friendly as you won’t need to water it and there is no requirement to treat it with pesticides or feeds. You should get up to 20 years out of your artificial grass without any maintenance and hassle. It won’t fade or flatten over time, and it'll retain its colour right till the end of its life. In the event you need a local pro to lay artificial grass for you, just fill in the form and we’ll put you in contact with up to 4 contractors who will give you a free, no obligation quote.

Situated in the Lea Valley, Hoddesdon is a town in the Broxbourne borough of the English county of Hertfordshire. A portion of Hoddesdon became an urban district due to the Local Government Act in 1894, with the remaining area emerging as the parish of Hoddesdon Rural in the Ware Rural District. Change occurred in 1937 after a County Review Order expanded the urban district by incorporating the whole of the Hoddesdon Rural parish. This was in effect until the Local Government Act of 1972 entered into effect in 1974, which abolished the urban district and created the District of Broxbourne. Starting from a coaching stop on the road between London and Cambridge, it is 3 miles west of Harlow, 4 miles southeast of Hertford, 5 miles north of Waltham Cross and 11 miles southwest of Bishop's Stortford. Over 35 coaches passed through the town daily at the town's peak. With a population of 20250, Hoddesdon is mainly a commuter belt town. The High Street is the home of a number of national and regional shops, fast food restaurants and pubs, along with estate agents, charity shops, banks, travel agents and a library. After the removal of the High Street's pedestrianised nature in 2009, the town has seen a growth in appeal, leaving the empty shop numbers very low. Several new independent businesses have actually also established themselves in the High Street. The lakes and water pits remaining after the decline of gravel extraction in the 1970s are currently used as leisure facilities. The town is also the home of a Non-League football club, Hoddesdon Town F.C., which is based at Lowfield. For all of your home upgrades, make certain to make use of credible specialists in Hoddesdon to make certain of quality.

Laying artificial grass is a popular project – it’s a great way to create a smart, low-maintenance garden. There are plenty of professionals around who are experts at installing artificial grass, but it’s possible to DIY too if you’re feeling confident.
Lots of homeowners choose to replace their existing turf with artificial grass, so lay it on soil. To do this, start by clearing the area of any greenery or turf. Then remove any extra soil to a depth of about 40mm. You might want to leave the centre of your area slightly higher than the edges for a more natural look.
Next, you need to add a weed membrane and a sharp sand sub-base. It doesn’t really matter which one of these you do first, but you might find it easier to lay the weed membrane first and then use the sand to weigh it down, to a depth of about 35mm. Use a rake and plank to make the sand level, and compact it with a plank and heavy hammer. It doesn’t need to be completely flat – gentle slopes are fine. The weed membrane should overlap joints by 300mm.
After you’ve done this, you can lay your grass. Roll it out, trim it to size and fasten it in place. Make sure the ends of the grass rolls are staggered so they don’t end in a line. Lay the artificial grass with the pile (the strands) leaning towards the house so it looks nice and full when you’re looking out from the house. If you’ve decided to use edging boards, you can nail the grass into the tops of the boards. Or, if you haven’t, use ground pins to anchor it into the soil. Brush the grass and you’re done!
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!
