27 Aug Why Choose Artificial Grass For Small Gardens
Limited space and navigating unique micro-environments require more attention to detail, making small outdoor spaces more challenging.
Despite this, a small garden has the ability to make a big impact, but sometimes this requires you to have the right surface at your disposal. If you’re eager to add a touch of greenery to your city apartment or manage the challenges of natural grass in your narrow walkway, artificial grass can be a smart solution.
Easigrass offers a large selection of award-winning artificial grass products that instantly transform even the tiniest outdoor areas into a stylish oasis.
Here are five reasons artificial grass is perfect for your small outdoor space:
It’s Low Maintenance
Weekends are precious, especially for busy South Africans rushing from one task to the next during the week. The last thing you want to do on the weekend is wrestle with grass and weeds in awkward spots.
One reason homeowners love artificial grass is its low-maintenance appeal. You’ll no longer need to manoeuvre lawnmowers and garden tools in hard-to-reach corners or revive dying natural turf with harsh chemicals. Artificial grass requires minimal upkeep, no fertilisers or pesticides, and absolutely no mowing to maintain its lush appearance. A brush with a soft-bristled broom and a quick rinse with the hose is all you need to ensure your artificial lawn is spic-n-span. This allows you to cut down your to-do list and spend more time relaxing.
It’s Water wise
South Africa is a water scarce country with many regions struggling with seasonal droughts and water restrictions. Maintaining natural turf in these conditions can be costly and impractical, especially in smaller spaces that require more attention and resources.
Artificial grass requires no daily watering to maintain its vibrant appearance, allowing your small garden to look great year-round without relying on unpredictable rainfall or worrying about when the next water restrictions will hit. Plus, we’ve found that our clients can actually save up to 70% on their water bill. This allows them to reduce maintenance costs and have an inviting space throughout the year – it’s a win-win.
It’s Safe and Family Friendly
Kids love exploring just as much as they love taste-testing everything in sight. For parents, this makes the safety of play surfaces a top concern. Easigrass is designed with non-toxic materials and requires zero fertilisers and pesticides to maintain its vibrant appearance. This provides a safer surface for little feet to play on, and gives you peace of mind when your little explorers are enjoying your outdoor space.
Synthetic turf is designed with fur babies in mind too! Easigrass is engineered to withstand pets running, digging and roughhousing. Cleaning is a breeze too. Kids made a mess? Or are you wanting to keep your pets’ favourite bathroom spot under control? The only thing you need to get rid of pet odours and messy play is a quick rinse with the hose. No mud, dust, or uneven patches, so the space is always safe, tidy, and usable for the whole family.
It Fits Any Space
Versatility is one of synthetic turf’s biggest strengths. Great for rooftops, balconies and small spaces, Easigrass has the ability to shape itself into every shape and size, adding softness and warmth to an otherwise challenging space. From narrow side strips to tiny courtyards, artificial grass can be cut and shaped to fit around trees, paving or flowerbeds, allowing you to create the space of your dreams.
Synthetic turf can be paired with decking, paving stones, or water features for a look that wows visitors. It’s a great addition for those living in the city too. Add a pop of colour by transforming apartment balconies, patios or rooftops into a city escape!
It Offers a Year Round Appeal
Natural turf can be difficult to maintain 365 days a year. Unsightly brown and yellow patches, along with dead or dying spots, can make your small space look dishevelled.
Artificial grass looks lush and vibrant throughout the year! Designed with UV-stabilised fibres, artificial turf has the ability to withstand the harsh South African sun without fading – no brown patches or thinning when summer rolls around. From summer braais to cosy winter catch-ups, this ensures your space is always guest ready, no matter the season.
Artificial Grass that’s perfect for every space
You don’t have to compromise just because you have a small space. Easigrass offers a practical solution for areas like balconies, small gardens and patios, allowing you to enjoy a space that offers all the best qualities of a natural surface without the maintenance headaches.
