When people choose artificial grass, most of their focus goes on how it looks (colour, softness, how realistic it looks, etc.). But in reality, the most important part of the one they don’t often see: the artificial grass base or foundation beneath the turf.

Here’s why what goes underneath your grass determines whether your artificial lawn stays flat, drains properly, and performs for years — or slowly develops problems after the installers have left.

If you want the best artificial grass in Sydney that your money can buy, you need to know how to identify the best artificial grass and installer beforeyou pay for anything.

At first glance, every artificial grass looks similar. But look closely at how they’re manufactured and installed, and you’ll realise not all of it is as durable and reliable as it’s made out to be.

Artificial grass often looks perfect when it’s first installed. Clean edges, vibrant colour, neat joins — everything appears spot on and any mistakes made in the installation are easily hidden. But beware: such mistakes lead to artificial grass problems that don’t show up immediately. They appear 6 to 12 months later, once the grass has been exposed to weather, heat, rain, and regular use.
