Artificial Grass MEGATHREAD - No Advertising/Quotes

[mitchsheff 10]

Just had a quote from Green-hands at Hackenthorpe.

Said it would be £240 labour plus about £600 for the grass at so called "friends rates"

 

Quote come through post today,the want £1767.60!!!

 

Works out at over 65 quid a square meter, needless to say we will look elsewhere.

 

i've just spat my tea across my keyboard how many sqm do you need laying? i'll happily come look ive just quoted a couple in sheffield that price for 70sqm thats a crazy price so yours is around 27sqm?

 

my mobile number is 07455012326

There are many different qualities of artificial grass so your quotes are actually meaningless unless they are like for like. You need to decide on the type, quality and how much you want to spend per square metre. It is exactly like buying carpet. Also, preparation and ground work is key to a good finish so before accepting a quote make sure that this will be done correctly. Remember that the product will last for years, will always look good and will be almost maintenance free so in the end it will be value for money.

Hi kate55. I am an independent contractor. I source the imitation grass and all other materials and install. My web site. http://panddoutdoorspaces.co.uk/

Anyone have an idea how much a 10ft x 14 ft patch of artifial grass would cost to have installed?

 

Only needs to be budget quality but not rough as for kids to play on.

 

Is it easy to install yourself?

Hi Oasismark

With a good quality grass at 35mm pile, dig out, replace with 50mm sand, skip, fixing boards would be around £800. Dependind on the grass and the site. Thanks

Thanks for the reply but Jesus! i want expecting that much. Its literally just for a trampoline to go on!

[fildoody 10]

I'm sorry but the materials needed are a great deal. The grass alone is half of the price. There is quite a bit of work to be done.

I dont dispute the work involved, perhaps i need a rethink on what i use, as i say its just for under a trampoline.

 

Thanks

This may seem a silly question but can artificial grass be laid on a slight incline? I'm thinking of having part of my back garden done but was wondering if the base layer slipped over time, the lawn would become uneven.
