Taking that first step to switching to artificial grass an important one. But picking the right type of artificial grass for your lawn is a different matter altogether.

For this, you’ll have to read about the various styles of grass as well as which one might be right for your lawn.

Here are 3 tips to help choose the right type of artificial grass:

1: Weight

Based on the volume of your purchase, the artificial grass will either come in partial or full rolls. If you want to know how much each roll weighs, then you should ask for specification sheets from the manufacturer. Of course, this is important since it is necessary to know whether the site at which you want to install artificial grass can bear the weight.

2: Price Per Square Foot

Even if installing artificial grass is a serious investment, one still have to watch their budget in this regard. It must be pointed out that the costs per square foot is only for the layer of artificial grass and the backing – nothing else. The installation comes with other charges of course. This also depends on whether it is a flat surface or otherwise. So, given these factors, you might have to go for a less expensive type of artificial grass.

3: Manufacturer’s Warranty

Investing in artificial grass offers you the benefit of a manufacturer’s warranty. However, you should be suspicious of a company that offers warranties that goes beyond on 10+ years. Most reputed companies offer up to 8 years and no more. So, if there’s product failure during year nine, the company will have honor. Unfortunately, this results in court cases given that the company does not want to, especially for large square footage projects.
