Frequently Asked Questions

For many homeowners, yes. Melbourne’s weather can be unpredictable, and natural lawns often struggle in winter and dry out in summer. Artificial grass provides a clean, consistent lawn without mowing, watering, or fertilising, making it a practical long-term option.  

Artificial grass installation in Melbourne typically costs $80–$130 per m² installed, depending on turf quality, base preparation, drainage, and access.  

Yes. High-quality artificial grass is non-toxic, pet-friendly, and easy to clean. It drains quickly, reduces odours, and doesn’t turn muddy, making it ideal for dog owners. 

Yes. Artificial grass can be installed directly onto concrete using specialised adhesives and aluminium edging, which provides a clean, durable finish for courtyards, balconies, and paved areas.  

Premium artificial grass typically lasts 8 to 15 years or more in Australia when installed correctly with proper base preparation and UV-stabilised materials.  

Artificial grass can warm up on very hot days, similar to paving. Light water spray or shade can quickly cool the surface, and modern turf products are designed to reduce heat retention. 

Yes. Proper drainage is essential. Artificial grass is installed over a permeable base or drainage system so water drains through efficiently, even during heavy Melbourne rain.  

In most cases, artificial grass can be used within 24 hours after installation, once the adhesive and base have properly set.  

For most residential homes, a pile height between 30 mm and 40 mm offers the best balance of natural appearance, comfort, and durability.
