How Much is Real Fake Grass?

If you’re budgeting for landscaping for your Highlands Ranch home, there are many factors to consider when looking at costs for turf vs grass.  

The installation costs associated with artificial turf often prove that you will initially be required to pay more for a lawn made from turf. In order to properly lay synthetic turf in your yard, you will most likely be required to have your old yard dug up, with then sand placed and leveled. Before artificial turf can be installed, rubber pellets will be positioned on top of the sand. 

Despite the initial expenses of an artificial lawn, costs associated with grass lawns are relatively equal to those of artificial ones in the long run. Grass lawns require continual maintenance expenses which often include insect control, irrigation, and lawn mowing, all which add up over time. 

Artificial turf will last around 15-20 years once installed without the need for the extra expenses of grass lawns, which means that the initial investment should be worth it overall.
