Artificial Grass in Yelverton

Artificial grass is an alternative option to a natural lawn. It requires very little upkeep because you won’t need to mow it or take care of mud during the winter. Today, artificial grass comprises of fibres and infills of a mixture of sand and granules of recycled rubber. They have typically been applied in commercial conditions, however they are becoming a lot more preferred in people’s residences. You can lay artificial grass on practically any surface, irrespective of whether it is flat or sloping. It's safe for children and pets, and it also drains like actual grass so you won’t end up with puddles. It’s environmentally friendly as you won’t have to water it and there's no requirement to treat it with pesticides or feeds. You should get up to 20 years out of your artificial grass without any upkeep and hassle. It won’t fade or flatten in time, and it will retain its colour right until the end of its life.

Yelverton

Yelverton is a big village on the south-western edge of Dartmoor, Devon, in England. When Yelverton train station (on the Great Western Railway (GWR) line from Plymouth to Tavistock) opened up in the 19th century, the village ended up being a prominent home for Plymouth travelers. The railway is currently closed, however the Plym Valley Railway has resumed a section of it. Yelverton is popular for Roborough Rock - a famous mass of stone near to the Plymouth road on the fringe of nearby Roborough Down, near the southern end of the landing strip. It offered its name to the Rock Hotel, developed as a farm during the Elizabethan duration, however transformed in the 1850s to provide for growing tourism in the area. The location to the south as well as west of the roundabout at the centre of the village was resolved in late Victorian and Edwardian times, with numerous grand as well as extravagant rental properties. A location created at about the very same time on a weird shaped piece of land to the south of the Tavistock road is referred to as Leg o' Mutton Corner. At the start of the Second World War, an airfield (RAF Harrowbeer) was built at surrounding Harrowbeer as a boxer station for the air support of Devonport Dockyard and the Western Approaches. A 19th century terrace of residences, currently mainly converted into stores, had to have its top floor got rid of to give a simpler technique. One tall building which was not modified was St. Paul's Church, yet the tower was hit by an aircraft, causing a warning light being fitted. The layout of the paths is still extremely clear as well as although they are substantially grassed over, the many earth and block safety bunkers constructed to protect the competitors from attack on the ground are all still in place. Some American airmen as well as anti-aircraft battery systems were posted right here during the second fifty percent of the battle. An aircraft bring President Roosevelt landed right here when its original destination was fogbound.

FAQs

How to clean artificial grass?
Choosing artificial grass instead of natural turf can save you a lot of time on garden maintenance. However, even artificial grass needs the odd clean every now and then to ensure it stays looking good and lasts a long time, so here are some top tips. Regular maintenance There are several ways to keep your grass in good condition. Try brushing your grass with a broom or plastic rake regularly to dislodge any dirt or debris. You could also use a leaf blower to remove any leaves, or a low-pressure hose to get rid of wetter dirt. Hopefully the weed membrane under the artificial grass will do its job, but if you do get any weeds you can use a water-based moss and weed killer – make sure the maximum pH is 8. When the weeds have died off, remove them as you would with any leaves or debris. Cleaning stains on your artificial grass If you spill a drink on your artificial grass, grab a paper towel and dab at it rather than rubbing it, as this will just work the stain into your grass. Rinse it with some water if necessary. If you notice a stain that’s been there for a while, mix a teaspoon of detergent with a pint of water in a bucket. Using a soft cloth or sponge, rub the solution onto the stain until it’s gone, and rinse with clean water. If the stain is sticky, water might not be enough to get rid of it. Try using a toothbrush to brush away the residue.
How long does artificial grass last?
How long your artificial grass will last depends on its quality and how well you look after it. Most types of artificial grass should last at least 10 years. But if you buy high-quality grass and take good care of it, it could stay looking good for up to 20 years. There are a few things that impact how long your artificial grass lasts:
  • Blade material Artificial grass is made up of lots of individual blades, just like real grass. The blades are made of plastic and are sewn to a backing material. To help keep your artificial grass looking great for longer, a blend of blades made from nylon and polyethylene are best. Nylon is extremely resilient, but isn’t very comfy to walk on, so adding the polyethylene which is still very strong helps to keep it feeling nice underfoot.
  • Backing material The backing material holds all the artificial grass blades together. It’s made of two layers: a membrane that the grass is attached to, and a section that’s usually made of latex or polyurethane and bonds everything together. When you’re choosing your artificial grass, ask for samples – try to pull away the backing material. If it comes apart easily, steer clear of that type of grass.
  • The artificial grass’ use The lifespan of your artificial grass will depend on how much traffic it gets. It’s best to invest in strong nylon or nylon-blend turfs where it’s going to get walked on regularly, such as on a pathway to a door. Of course, if the artificial grass is more ornamental, a lower-quality product will last a long time.
  • Good installation One of the main things that will help your artificial grass last a long time is effective installation. If artificial grass is laid badly, it might suffer from poor drainage and weeds which will reduce its lifespan. It’s always best to get your artificial grass installed by a professional since they’re trained in fitting it to a high standard.
Does artifical grass get hot?

On a hot summer’s day, we often seek our garden lawn as a cooling place to sit and get some relief from the sun. However, since artificial grass is made from plastic, lots of people ask whether it gets hot, or whether it stays like natural grass. The answer is, it’s somewhere in between.

Of course, we all know to stay in the shade in midday sun and this is when your artificial grass will be at its hottest. Unless it is an extremely hot say and your lawn is in direct sunlight, you should still be able to walk on your artificial grass. The best thing to do is test it using the back of your hand before anyone walks over it with bare feet or children go to play on it.

In the shade, artificial grass should always maintain a cool temperature, although it will never have that refreshing feel of cold grass on a hot day. It will also cool down extremely quickly as the day goes on, so if your grass does get too hot it shouldn’t be unusable for too long.

Artificial grass has to meet high safety standards and most are UV stabilised, which means that they can withstand high temperatures without melting or getting extremely hot. It’s worth remembering that hot countries like Dubai use artificial grass, so the occasional hot day in a British summer should be enough for artificial grass to handle!

How to join artificial grass?
If you’re covering a larger area with artificial grass, you may need to join sections together. You can do this using self-adhesive joining tape, or joining tape and a separate adhesive. Steps to join artificial grass
  1. Unroll your two pieces of artificial grass, ensuring that the pile is running in the same direction. Fold over each piece by about 300m.
  2. To get the perfect seam, cut at least 3 tufts back, ensuring that you don’t trim any grass blades.
  3. Either remove the backing on your self-adhesive tape and unroll it down the centre of the join, or roll it out ensuring that the shiny side is down then fix at either end with adhesive.
  4. Fold over the grass onto the tape and bring each piece together, ensuring there’s a 2-3mm gap at the seam.
  5. Where the pile runs over the edge of the seam, fold over the artificial grass.
  6. Apply a small amount of adhesive under the edge of the first section of grass with a mastic gun, then add some to the front edge to stick the second piece.
  7. Bring the seam together, ensuring that you don’t get any grass blades stuck. Place a plank with some heavy objects on over the join to ensure that it dries securely.
It’s not that difficult to join artificial grass, but if you have any doubt leave it to the professionals. Get in touch with a few artificial grass companies who will be able to tell you how much it will cost to lay artificial turf for you.
