Reasons to Install Artificial Grass around Your Pool
Lounging around a pool in summer (or even in winter!) is a great way to relax and enjoy all the best that our Valley has to offer. Choosing the type of landscaping you want for the area surrounding your pool, you’ll want something that will always look good, be safe, and last a long time. Here are a few things to keep in mind.
Artificial turf is a natural addition to the landscape around the pool for many reasons. It offers excellent drainage, is non-slip, and is exceptionally durable.
Great drainage
One of the benefits of artificial turf is that it drains completely. That means after your kid has a pool party and they have a ‘cannonball contest,’ there won’t be puddles in the grass or mud. When those kids climb in and out of the pool, they won’t track dirt or wet grass all over to pool decking, into the pool, or even into the house.
Artificial grass makes a gorgeous addition to your pool area.
The chemicals in your pool won’t damage your lawn, but your lawn can damage your pool if bits of grass and dirt land in your pool as the result of swimmers, or even mowing or a storm. Artificial turf will stay where it’s installed, and, because it doesn’t require maintenance that consists of sending pieces of it flying, that won’t contaminate or make your pool turn green, either.
Non-slip
Artificial turf is a safe, non-slip surface, which makes it ideal for use around a pool area. A non-slip surface is critical around pool areas, which can quickly become wet and hazardous. Since artificial turf does not grow as hot as concrete, it’s a better option than concrete or brickwork.
Durable
Another benefit of artificial turf is that it will stand up well to our harsh summer heat. It won’t mold or break down like carpeting when it gets wet. Even indoor outdoor carpet will not stand up to the U.V rays and other elements and remain intact like artificial turf.
A gorgeous look
Your pool area should be one of the most attractive places in your yard. Artificial turf will make a stunning and beautiful contrast to the pool water. It gives the vision of an oasis and looks fantastic 100% of the time. Artificial turf is easily maintained. Without the need for mowing, overseeding, fertilizing, etc., it will leave you free to enjoy your poolside more. Save yourself all the extra time you might waste maintaining natural grass with artificial grass. You will never be sorry!
