About Artificial Grass Direct

Artificial Grass Direct is a synthetic lawn supplier at Bamber Bridge near Preston, and an Artificial Grass Direct discount code is spent on something sold by the metre, cut to your order. Two numbers on the listing decide whether you are happy with it in three years.

Pile height is a choice, not a quality ranking

The range runs from a few millimetres to around fifty. Short pile under twenty millimetres is hard-wearing and right for high traffic, balconies and putting surfaces. Thirty to forty is the realistic-lawn range most gardens need. Very long pile photographs beautifully then flattens under footfall and needs brushing to stand back up. Pick for how the space is used.

Density matters more than height

Two grasses at one pile height and different stitch densities behave quite differently. The sparser one shows its backing, goes flat sooner and wears into visible tracks. Density is rarely printed prominently, so ask before ordering: it explains why two apparently identical products are priced apart.

The sub-base does most of the work

Grass laid straight onto soil sinks, ripples and gets colonised from below within a season. The proper build-up is to excavate, lay a weed membrane, compact an aggregate sub-base, screed a level layer of sand or granite dust, add a second membrane, then the grass. Skipping the membrane is why weeds appear through a lawn that was perfect last summer. Backing is perforated so rain drains into that sub-base, and polyurethane backing handles pet use better than latex.

Joins, pile direction and samples

Seams are made with jointing tape and adhesive rather than by pushing two edges together, and every piece must run with the pile leaning the same way. Mismatched direction shows as a permanent colour change from every angle. Order samples first: colour reads differently in daylight, and grass is cut to length, so a wrong shade is not returnable in practice. Note too that synthetic fibre gets far hotter than real grass in full sun and melts rather than scorches, so barbecues, fire pits and glare from modern glazing leave permanent marks.

Using an Artificial Grass Direct discount code

Apply the code in the basket and then look at carriage, since rolls are heavy and delivery often moves the total more than the code does. Samples and clearance ends are the usual exclusions.
