What are the benefits of switching to artificial grass?
Artificial grass offers a lush, green lawn all year round—without the hassle of mowing, watering, or fertilising. It’s low-maintenance, cost-effective, and perfect for New Zealand’s climate. Whether you’re upgrading your backyard or landscaping a commercial space, synthetic turf gives you a clean, vibrant look with minimal upkeep.

How realistic does your synthetic turf look?
Our artificial grass is incredibly lifelike, with natural colour tones, varied blade shapes, and soft textures that mimic real grass. Most people can’t tell the difference!
Does Urban Turf Solutions artificial grass fade?
No. Urban Turf Solutions manufacture in Brisbane and use only the finest fibres available globally which are UV stabilised against colour fade. Pet urine will not cause discolouration.
How long will artificial grass last?
Because our yarn fibre is of the same chemical structure as our sports products, which show a life span of 8 years, we expect to see a life span between 15 to 20 years in normal leisure environments like residential lawns. All Urban Turf products are guaranteed for 7 years with correct installation and treatment.
Can I BBQ on Urban Turf?
Dropping food on artificial grass will have no effect however burning coals will melt the fibre and leave obvious marks. Repairs to damaged areas can be made using any waste that you may have kept.
How much does artificial grass cost in NZ?

What maintenance is required for artificial grass?
Keeping your artificial lawn looking great is easy! Aside from the occasional sweep to clear away leaves—which helps prevent moss buildup—a light brush every now and then will keep the sand infill evenly distributed. Over time, you might notice some weed growth in the infill, but a quick spray will sort that out. Got questions? Your installer is always happy to help with expert advice to keep your turf in top shape. Low maintenance, high impact—that’s the beauty of artificial grass!
