When you are having your landscape design created for your Harbeson and Sussex County, DE, home, there are different types of lawns you can choose from. You can choose to have a traditional seeded lawn installed in your yard or potentially synthetic turf. While there are benefits to each type, synthetic turf is low maintenance and green all year long, in addition to many other benefits.
Resistant to Disease and Insects
Synthetic turf is not natural and therefore is resistant to any diseases and insects that traditional seeded lawns may have. Due to it being synthetic, it does not require any sort of fertilization and you will not have to worry about weeds or insects taking over your lawn.
A Low-Maintenance LAWN
Due to the fact that synthetic turf doesn’t grow, it does not require mowing. This makes it a much lower maintenance option than traditional seeded lawns. You will have the ability to go on vacation for extended periods of time without worrying about it. If synthetic turf gets dusty or dirty, you will just need to spray it down. When it becomes matted or pushed down from heavy foot traffic, it can be brushed to give it a lush appearance again.
Better Drainage
The installation of synthetic turf will mean that you won’t have typical mud coming through your lawn like you would with traditional seeded lawns. When your landscape contractor installs your synthetic turf, they will ensure there is proper drainage during periods of high amounts of rain. This will keep water from pooling on your lawn and will allow you to send pets and children outside without having to worry about muddy feet coming back indoors.
A Fitting Solution for Pets and Children
If you want to know that your children and pets are safe playing and sitting on your lawn, then synthetic turf could be the answer. Due to the fact it does not need fertilizer or pesticides, it is incredibly safe for children and pets to play, sit, and lay down on. You will also eliminate the worry of grass stains all over your children’s clothing, which means they can have all of the fun that they want outside! It is also very easy to clean up messes and you can quickly pick up any pet waste as needed.
Conservation of Water
With synthetic turf, you will not have to water your lawn at all. This means that you are making an environmentally friendly decision. Synthetic turf will not require a sprinkler or irrigation system, which means that depending on the size of your yard, you can potentially save thousands of gallons of water per year not having to water your lawn.
Lush, Green Lawn All Year
When you have synthetic turf installed, you could end up with the type of lawn that is the envy of your neighbors. Periods of drought or excessive rain will no longer be a worry for you. No matter what the weather is like, the amount of precipitation that you get in your area, or how tough you are on your lawn, it will continue to look green and lush throughout the year.
