Climate has become the primary reason synthetic lawns are on the rise, not only in Houston but all over Texas. Artificial gras range widely and have many advantages in all seasons. No matter what season of the year it is your lawn will always look green and manicured.
What are the benefits?
You as a home owner gain a huge benefit but so does the environment. The environment has been affected with water, soil, and air pollution from harmful pesticides and fertilizers that have to be used for the up keep of sod.
Low Maintenance
Everyone has a friend, family member, or neighbor that loves to maintain their lawn looking amazing with sod, but even they can tell you that to achieve this they have to work on their lawn every week. With artificial grass you get the looks of a beautiful lawn and you get to save your time!
Houston, Texas, has a larger yard size than most cities and far surpasses the national average yard size. This means that turf in Houston and other neighboring communities makes sense. An artificial lawn means no more watering, fertilizer, or dangerous pesticides. You can say goodbye to the sound of your lawn mower in the mornings!
Durability
Pet owners and people with kids will love turf because turf can withstand the heavy traffic. Natural grass will always look worn out or get patches when kids or pets run on it. Synthetic grass however does not wear out and get any patches, and are designed for kids and pets to run and have fun on it!
Versatility
Texas weather is harsh! Some parts of Texas get constant heatwaves, whereas other areas experience drops in temperature. In the portions of Texas that see cold fronts, getting natural grass to grow is a struggle. Homeowners tend to end up with brown lawns all through the winter. Other Texans who stick to the warmer climates pay high water bills in order to keep dry, dead grass patches from spreading.
Heat Resistance
Like anything turf has to be installed properly! If installed properly you can not only achieve the most beautiful lawn but you can also maintain a cooler lawn. Turf requires infill and with the harsh heats from Houston we would heavily recommend TCool Infill. TCool infill provides for up to 50°F cooler surface temperatures.
