30 May Five Ways Easigrass Prepares You for Winter
Winter isn’t just tough on you — it’s tough on your lawn too. Heavy rainfall, frost, and chilly winds can leave your outdoor space looking duller than the rainiest day in Cape Town.
With less sunlight and more rain, natural lawns struggle — demanding extra care, more products, and higher costs, right when you’d rather be relaxing by the fire.
It’s no surprise, then, that artificial grass has become a popular choice for homeowners wanting to hold on to a little piece of summer all year round. Green, lush, and ready for any season — here are a few more reasons why Easigrass prepares you for winter!
Built in Drainage for Heavy Rains
While most of the country gets its showers in summer, the Western Cape likes to shake things up with winter rain instead, thanks to its Mediterranean-style climate. Cue the cold fronts and days of steady drizzle. This can wreak havoc on natural lawns, leaving them soggy and unusable no matter when your region receives rainfall.
Thankfully, artificial grass is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including heavy rainfall and excessive heat. Each Easigrass product offers a permeable backing that allows rainwater to drain directly through your synthetic grass, instead of pooling on the surface. Whether it’s a Western Cape downpour or a Highveld thunderstorm, your garden stays green, clean, and ready for anything.
Safe, Slip-Resistant Surfaces
There’s something magical about spending time in your garden during winter. Unfortunately, wet concrete, decking and natural lawns can cause nasty slips and falls if you’re not careful, especially after rainfall.
Not only is Easigrass designed with a permeable backing to ensure excellent drainage, but it’s also engineered with slip-resistant technology. This provides a safer surface when compared to traditional surfaces, reducing your chance of slipping and hurting yourself after rain. This is also a great advantage for parents wanting to keep stir-crazy kids active outdoors, even on damp days — without worrying about muddy mess or slippery surfaces.
No More Muddy Patches
Heavy rainfall can transform your garden into a muddy pit. Unfortunately, this has repercussions for your home too. Cleaning up muddy feet and pawprints can feel like a never-ending task in winter – but it doesn’t have to be.
Easigrass provides a mud-free, mess-free surface – perfect for little feet and paws looking to play outside without you having to worry about dirt being tracked indoors. With no exposed soil to turn into mud, your lawn stays clean and mess-free. Plus, Easigrass is durable underfoot, providing a firm and stable surface even with heavy foot traffic — so you won’t have to worry about muddy patches developing over time.
All in all, artificial grass is the perfect way to keep your outdoor space looking fresh, clean, and green all year round!
A Low Maintenance Solution
Having to brave the cold to maintain your natural lawn is the last thing anyone wants. A perk of having artificial grass, especially during winter, is its low maintenance appeal.
Fallen leaves and winter debris can clutter your garden, but with Easigrass, a quick brush or rinse is all it takes to keep your lawn looking fresh and inviting, no matter the season. Additionally, no weeding, watering or fertilising is needed to maintain its vibrant appearance, making Easigrass the perfect worry-free solution for busy homeowners—especially during the cold, wet winter months when natural lawns can be hardest to care for.
A Consistent Green Surface
Even the most well-maintained lawns struggle in winter. The cold weather combined with shorter daylight means natural lawns begin to lose their colour – and that’s if you’ve managed to maintain its vibrant, green appearance throughout the heat of summer.
One of the standout benefits of Easigrass is its ability to provide a lush, green lawn all year round – no matter the season. This means, no more dead or dying brown patches, just a vibrant, healthy appearance year round.
