  • Created and assembled at LazyLawn’s headquarters in Rutland

    Peter Footitt, production director at LazyLawn and creator of the vividly eye-catching tribute to the Queen and her jubilee milestone said: 

    “This is a real demonstration of the versatility of artificial grass. It’s one of the reasons the marketplace and demand for bespoke LazyLawn installations have seen astronomical growth in recent years. Bold, hard-wearing and requiring minimal maintenance, the Queen’s Jubilee LazyLawn designs lead the way in this and many public, commercial and domestic projects across the country. We’re very proud to have been able to mark Her Majesty’s 70 years of public service in this way”.

    Created and assembled at LazyLawn’s headquarters in Rutland, the step surface is made from Fun Grass 15mm and the Platinum Jubilee emblem in Funky Purple 25-30mm artificial grass. It will remain in place throughout the celebratory period.

  • LazyLawn install artificial grass pitch at Jack Grealish School

    Creating the perfect training conditions for future England football sensations, LazyLawn West Midlands have installed a 5-a-side multi-use games area at the Solihull primary school at which England star Jack Grealish was a pupil.

    Unveiled on 29 November 2022 and featured on BBC Breakfast, the previously waterlogged, boggy and swampy field at Our Lady of Compassion Catholic Primary School in Solihull has been transformed into a vibrant play surface. Where there was previously no suitable surface or space for outdoor play, the children can now enjoy a fully usable and durable games area, free draining and stable under foot – a long way from its boggy muddy past where Grealish would have played.

  • The Secret to Low-Cost Sub-base

    Sub-base. What is it? Who needs it? Well, if you’re installing artificial grass, you do, my friend. 

    Sub-base goes where your natural grass was once you’ve excavated down a few inches and before you install the grass. Its primary job is to prevent the natural expansion and contraction of your yard’s native soil from affecting the turf, thus preventing wrinkles from popping up.

    In most professional installations, it’s one of three things:

    1. crushed miscellaneous base – CMB,
    2. class II road base, or
    3. decomposed granite.

    Decomposed granite is considered the best of the three due to its superior drainage and ability to render a consistently flat surface. Certain types of installations, like putting greens, need decomposed granite sub-base more in order to perform and last. The problem with decomposed granite is it’s expensive. 

    Is there a workaround?

    In most cases, you can get good performance and longevity out of artificial grass with the use of only a small amount of decomposed granite. In fact, only the top few inches of sub-base need to be decomposed granite in order to get good drainage and overall performance. This means you can fill most of your excavated area with inexpensive class II or CMB, then just spread a few inches of decomposed granite on the surface. This will bring down the cost considerably and produce fair results.

    That being said, there are some installations for which we never recommend skimping on decomposed granite subbase. If you receive lots of rainfall, or already have drainage issues in your yard, this strategy isn’t likely to work out. Be sure to discuss your project’s particulars with our turf experts for more guidance.

  • High-Quality, Low-Cost Artificial Grass Remnants

    Depending on the total square footage of your project, artificial grass remnants can be a great money-saver! Remnants are unused turf pieces from past jobs that are sold at discounted rates. They vary in size, but will not typically be larger than 15′ x 15′.

    Remnant availability is different from location to location, and they must be picked up from the store and cannot be delivered, but you can shop available turf remnants before stopping in! Simply select the nearest location to you in the dropdown menu and shop what’s in stock – updated weekly.

    However, keep in mind that artificial grasses are produced in dye lots. This means that two separately manufactured rolls of the same product type might have slight variations in color. If having remnant pieces from the same dye lot does not matter to you, great! But if it does, you can ask your Purchase Green representative to confirm if the dye lots are the same or different before buying.

    Although, many DIYers have installed remnant pieces from different dye lots. Sometimes the individual pieces are installed in separate areas, or have planters or other landscape elements in between them – distracting the eye from their (somewhat) noticeable difference in color.
