Green Planet Grass Helps Homeowners Keep Pace in Planned Communities

Artificial grass manufacturer in Perth reveals how Green Planet Grass solves lawn and garden maintenance problems quickly and easily for time-strapped homeowners.
Perth, WA, 12 May 2014 - First home buyers and professional couples who purchase homes in planned communities often find that they don’t have enough time to keep their lawns and gardens looking as good as the rest of the community. Younger couples are often working hard, trying to make ends meet. When children enter the picture, they may have even less time to spend on keeping their lawns looking good.

Many couples who don’t have time for yard work outsource it, either to private contractors or to professional landscaping companies. This can cost a lot of money depending on the landscape company. Lately, though, many of those couples have discovered a cleaner, easier and less expensive solution: artificial grass.

Artificial Grass: Saving Time and Money


The best-known benefit of artificial grass is that it saves a lot of time, but it also saves the homeowner a fair amount of money after the initial cost of installation. The time expenditure for maintaining a natural grass lawn can be staggering. It should be watered on every watering day unless it rains. It also needs to be mowed on a regular basis and weeded regularly. It also needs to be fertilised and even re-seeded on occasion.

With artificial grass, there is almost no maintenance. It has to be cleared of debris and occasionally needs material that is stuck to it to be hosed off or cleaned with mild soap and water. This represents a far less significant time investment than the maintenance for a natural grass lawn.

The financial savings with synthetic grass over natural grass are substantial. The homeowner doesn’t need expensive lawn equipment. Water bills are often cut in half during the dry months. There is no more money spent on costly chemicals, seeds or sod for re-sodding. For those who outsource the labour, the amount of money saved is even higher.

It is estimated that an artificial lawn can save enough money to pay for itself within as little as three years. Since many artificial lawns last as long as twenty years, the homeowner is “in profit” for as many as seventeen years after the original investment has been recouped.

Justin Everley, Director of Green Planet Grass in Perth, referred to artificial grass as an “instant solution” in a recent post on his company’s blog. According to Mr Everley: “We have seen a trend toward a lot of homeowners turning to Green Planet Grass to help them keep pace in planned communities. It is a great option for the homeowner. They may spend more money initially for the lawn, but then they really never have to spend on their lawn again.

Mr Everley concluded, “In this era, it seems like people don’t enjoy spending a lot of time maintaining their lawns anymore. Younger couples or first home buyers, in particular, are at the beginning of their careers and often need to work a few extra hours to make their mortgage repayments. When they have small children, they have even less disposable time. Artificial grass eliminates a large drain on their time.”
