Why Artificial Grass is Perfect Around Swimming Pools
The Perfect Summer Upgrade for Your Outdoor Space
If you want to add edging to your pool but aren’t convinced that tiles are the right choice, then why not look at artificial grass? As the installers of artificial grass Chelmsford property owners trust, we’re here to talk you through all of the benefits it has to offer when laid around a swimming pool.
Durable and Long-Lasting
One of the biggest features of artificial grass is its durability. Natural grass can suffer from the wear and tear of constant foot traffic, especially around a busy swimming pool. Artificial grass, on the other hand, is designed to last. It’s also resistant to a wide variety of chemicals. If you have natural grass around your pool, the chemicals may kill it, but you don’t have to worry about that with artificial grass.
Safety First
If you have tiles around your pool, they can become very slippery when wet. Artificial grass will not be as dangerous to walk on, keeping everyone getting in and out of the pool much safer. If someone were to fall over, the surface is much more forgiving. So, if you have young children, artificial grass is a great move.
Low Maintenance
Maintaining a natural grass lawn requires regular mowing and watering, which can take up a lot of your time. Artificial grass, on the other hand, requires minimal upkeep. All you need to do is sweep or vacuum the grass every now and again to keep it looking its best. This allows you to spend more time enjoying your pool and less time worrying about the state of your lawn.
Clean and Hygienic
Artificial grass offers a cleaner alternative to natural grass. It doesn’t create mud, meaning poolside areas remain clean even after heavy rain. You won’t have to worry about mud being raised back into the house either. On the other hand, it will stop debris such as leaves and grass from getting into your pool.
Fantastic Drainage
You don’t have to worry about muddy puddles or water pooling when you choose artificial grass. When we install it, we make sure that drainage holes are put in place to allow the water to drain through the artificial grass and into the ground. This will not only improve its appearance but can also help to prevent serious accidents.
Perfect for Paddling Pools and Hot Tubs
All of the above still apply if you have a paddling pool or hot tub, making artificial grass a great option for a huge range of gardens. Whether you have a hot tub that you use all year round or a paddling pool that you only get out when the weather warms up, artificial grass will pair with it both visually and functionally.
