Factors that affect artificial lawn cost
Unfortunately, there isn’t one set price for an artificial lawn and the cost can be affected by various factors, such as:
- Size: Although this might seem obvious, it’s worth mentioning that the larger the surface area of your lawn, the more materials required and, therefore, the higher the price.
- Shape: A square or rectangular lawn will typically be cheaper and have less wastage than if your lawn is an irregular shape, as this incurs additional grass wastage.
- Type of grass: Artificial grass is available in a wide range of styles to suit a variety of budgets and there is a large disparity in quality.
- Access: Tight alleyways, steps and through-the-house access can increase costs as this means it will typically take longer to install your lawn. Good access and close parking can make a big difference in lowering costs.
- Gradient: If your garden surface is uneven or needs adjusting in height, it requires more work, more materials and more in disposal costs to flatten or build up this terrain. Therefore, this usually costs more all adds up to a higher overall price. Artificial grass can be installed onto slopes and banks but, again, costs can be higher for this.
- Extras: The beauty of an artificial lawn is that you can incorporate additional features – such as shockpads and underlays – so that it better meets your needs.

Is artificial grass worth it?
Although artificial grass has a higher upfront cost than real grass, you’ll more than likely make this money back over time thanks to its low-maintenance nature. While your natural lawn will require countless hours of mowing and watering to keep it looking good, an artificial lawn will remain in lush green condition all year round without much extra work. Artificial grass also has great longevity, with an expected lifespan of anywhere between 10 to 20 years depending on the frequency of use, whereas one harsh winter or period of drought can kill off your natural lawn entirely.
