Artificial Turf in the Winter Time

Taking care of artificial grass is a different ball game, so to speak, and therefore you need to be armed with the right information to make sure you’re maintaining yours correctly, especially during months with harsher weather.

When you picture laying turf, you probably imagine a clear blue sky and gorgeous sunshine – not a chilly December day. There’s a perception that spring or summer is the best time to lay turf. However, autumn is considered a better time. And winter? Well, it‘s just as good a time as any! 

This is a question George Davies Turf are often asked, but fortunately, by taking down a few measurements you can soon find out exactly how many rolls you need, so you’ll never have to worry about being one or two rolls short when it comes to laying the turf.

Despite the heavy rainfall of the last week, we are technically in the midst of British summertime so when we do get the occasional glimpse of sunshine, why not spend some time updating and taking care of your garden?

Not only are we purveyors of the finest turf in the Home Counties, here at George Davies Turf we also stock various other products that can aid you in taking care of your turf and other parts of your garden.

Over the years, we have noticed an increase in demand for artificial grass too, so it’s a really good thing that we sell both! It’s difficult to perform a side by side comparison as there are many reasons for using both but nonetheless it’s important to be able to recognise the positives and negatives for both artificial and natural turf so that you can make the right decision when buying. So what are the key strengths and weaknesses of each that you should bear in mind?

Here at George Davies Turf there are two key things on which we pride ourselves – great quality service and great quality products. So how do you know whether the turf you have received or are looking to buy is a quality product?
