Astro Turf: 5 Signs That You Know It’s For You

Astro turf is a modern marvel, a dream landscaping solution refined after years of trialling and testing. Today, astro turf has endless uses, from a clean, vibrant lawn solution through to the prized backyard putting green! Anyone who wishes for a lush and invigorating outdoor turf solution can truly benefit from laying some of this green goodness, and there are many signs to tell if it’s for you.

Here are five of those signs:

• Your lawn is looking rough

Yikes - we’ve all seen it - the rank Aussie lawn. Yes, from Brisbane to Perth, Aussie gardens are plagued by this tired and tasteless, scungy lawn, and it makes you want to bust out that artificial grass calculator and see what you have to do to lay some goodness over the whole thing!

Honestly, if your lawn is looking like it went bad a long time ago, chances are it really did go bad a long time ago, in which case you should definitely consider pulling it all up and laying astro turf. Astro turf - unlike rank old lawns - don’t go rotten, maintaining their bright, vibrant shine year in, year out, ensuring you will constantly have a beautiful lawn that won’t succumb to any nasty bacteria or infestation.

• You want to do something fun with your lawn

Backyard footy? A cricket green or its putting equivalent? Why not, obviously! Australia is the world’s greatest sporting nation, and so why not revel in our legendary sporting status by making your own backyard a mini Gabba?!

Whatever code takes your interest, there is something so fun about turning your garden into a sporting attraction, a place where you can work on your medium pace in the morning and your short game in the afternoon. You can then take those home-learnt skills down to your local club and show how you’ve cheekily taken your game to the next level - it’s awesome!

• You’re sick of cleaning your lawn

Natural lawns can be a nightmare to clean, especially after a rowdy Queensland storm comes rolling through and strews leaves and debris all over the place! Astro turf, conversely, is an absolute breeze to clean, with a simple raking situation allowing you to easily clean any debris off the lawn in one fell swoop!

• You’re sick of mowing your lawn

Because we know it’s such a drag. Honestly, we haven’t ever heard anyone utter the phrase, “I love mowing the lawn”, despite the improved results. It’s simply not something we want to get out and do on a Saturday afternoon when the weather is fine and the wine and beer is cold - we want to be enjoying ourselves!

But noooo, the lawn decided to turn into the densest part of the Daintree this week, and we have to get out there and tear some 10 year mower through it like we’re destroying a habitat - it’s not what we want to be doing!

Thankfully, astro turf doesn’t require any mowing - touche.

• You just want something bright & beautiful

And that’s exactly what astro turf is - a bright, gorgeous stretch of lawn that provides Queensland homes with myriad benefits. So, if you’ve been looking for a brand new solution, and one that will invigorate your home whilst eliminating all those irritating maintenance duties, you will find that astro turf is the perfect solution for you.

Time to get those clubs out of the garage - it’s a putting comp!
