  • How much artificial grass do I need?

    The easiest way is to measure the width and length of the area you want to cover with artificial grass, multiply them together and write your measurements down. Make sure you use the widest and longest points of the area. It’s better to buy too much and cut bits away rather than having to buy more you need to stick together.

  • Will my grass match if I buy more than one piece?

    If you need more than one piece of grass to be joined together, let us know when you order, and we’ll do our best to match them by cutting from the same roll.

    Due to naturally occurring pigment variations between batches, we are unable to guarantee that rolls will be an exact match.

  • Do you install artificial grass?

    Grass Cash and Carry is currently a supply-only business. You'll find all you need to know on fitting your order in our handy artificial grass installation guide.

    If you're not confident about fitting your grass, we'd suggest finding a local fitter who can help.

  • Will my artificial grass drain properly?

    Most artificial grass has a porous backing and will drain naturally, but it’s worth preparing the surface under your artificial grass properly beforehand. Our installation guide provides further information on how to approach this.

  • Does Artificial Grass fade in the sun?

    All artificial grass ranges will fade eventually, but very gradually. The good news is that all of our ranges are UV stabilised, with a minimum 5 year guarantee to keep their vibrant colour in all weather conditions.

  • Can artificial grass be laid on soil?

    Yes, artificial grass can be laid on soil. However, it must be a stable and level surface and the soil needs to be compacted to ensure the artificial grass doesn’t sink or move. For best results, we advise laying a weed membrane over the soil and adding a layer of base material such as crushed stone or gravel to provide good drainage. Once this is done, the artificial grass can be laid on top.

  • Can Artificial Grass be laid on concrete?

    Yes, artificial grass can be laid on concrete. However, you will need to make sure that the concrete is level and without any cracks. You will also need to add a layer of base material such as crushed stone or gravel, as well as a weed membrane, before laying the artificial grass. This will provide good drainage, prevent weeds from growing and make the grass feel more realistic

  • Can artificial grass be laid on sloped surfaces?

    Yes, artificial grass can be laid on sloped surfaces. It is important to ensure that the slope is not too steep and that the surface is stable and level. To ensure the artificial grass does not move, you may need to use a combination of artificial grass adhesive and landscaping staples to fix it in place.

  • Is it child friendly?

    Yes. They're all great for kids but softer grasses are ideal for those who like to rough and tumble. Not just that: now you'll be able to say goodbye to muddy footprints in the house.
