If you’re thinking about having artificial grass installed you may be wondering when is the best time to do so, or if there even is a best time. We thought we’d help you through the process of consideration, with three of the top things to think about when choosing when to install artificial grass.
Number one consideration is always going to be convenience. When is the most convenient time for you? Trulawn always try to accommodate bookings to the customer’s need because after all, it is your garden! Holiday periods tend to be very popular for this reason with half term and the summer holidays being the peak season in the landscaping industry. This actually leaves other times of the year more open for availability, potentially giving you a quicker turnaround from quote to installation.
Second consideration is anticipation. If you have experienced problems with your grass in the past, it is likely that they will occur again. For example, if your garden is surrounded by deciduous trees it is likely the spring/summer months bring a lot of shade. Or alternatively, it might be that the area you live in receives a lot of rain in the winter months making your garden a bit of mud bath. If you anticipate these problems happening, install in advance. That way you can save yourself a lot of the hassle of a problem lawn.
Third consideration is the investment opportunity artificial grass provides. Installing artificial grass has year round benefits. If the object is to use your lawn all the time it almost doesn’t matter when you have it installed, because you reap the rewards whatever time of year it is. Whether spring, summer, autumn or winter the grass will remain green and usable.
It may surprise you to know but from a physical standpoint it’s actually much easier to install grass in the winter months with the ground being much softer than in the summer. If you’re planning on installing yourself, winter is generally considered the best time to do so.
