The backyard lawn you don’t have to babysit
A good backyard should be for living, not lawn maintenance. With our backyard artificial grass range, you can have a tidy, soft space that handles kids, mates, pets, and the random NZ weather swings. We’ll help you choose the right product from our range, then work with you to install it to our quality standards.
Kids’ play zone that stays clean
No more mud baths every winter. Backyard artificial grass gives kids a soft, clean place to run around, without the bare patches, prickles and slippery bits real grass gets.
Dog-friendly lawn without dead spots
Fake grass is a game-changer for homes with dogs/pets. You avoid urine burn, constant reseeding, and muddy paw prints through the house.
Entertaining area that’s always ready
If you love having people over, backyard turf spaces stay tidy with almost no effort. No last-minute mowing or patchy lawns.
Small courtyard that feels bigger
Our artificial grass works brilliantly in compact spaces where real grass won’t grow. It softens hard surfaces and makes a small area feel more relaxed.
Rental properties and easy upkeep
Landlords and tenants both love low-maintenance outdoor spaces. A tidy artificial lawn stays consistent without relying on someone remembering to water or mow.
Holiday home lawns that don’t turn wild
If you’re not at the bach every week, lawns get away on you fast. Backyard artificial grass keeps the place looking cared for year round, even when you’re not there.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best artificial grass for a backyard in NZ?
The best artificial grass for backyard use depends on how you live. You may need it for kids, dogs, entertaining, or just wanting your lawn to look perfect year-round. Most Kiwi families want something soft, realistic, and durable. We’ll recommend a product that suits your space, then install it so it drains well and stays comfortable underfoot.
How much does artificial grass for homes cost in NZ?
The cost of backyard artificial grass in NZ varies based on turf type, area size, access, and how much prep the site needs. A flat, easy-access lawn is simpler than a sloped yard with tight corners. The best way is a quick measure and quote, then you’ll know exactly what’s included, from base prep through to tidy finishing.
Can artificial grass handle kids playing on it every day?
Yes, an artificial grass backyard is built for daily life. It doesn’t wear into bare dirt patches the way natural grass can, especially in high-use zones. The key is choosing the right turf and having it installed properly with a stable base. If you’ve got a trampoline, swings, or constant foot traffic, we’ll factor that in.
Is backyard fake grass actually practical for dogs?
It is, especially for busy households. Fake grass means no muddy paws, no urine burn circles, and way less mess after rain from your dogs. Most owners just rinse the area as needed and pick up solids like normal. If your dog is a keen digger, we’ll talk you through edging and base options that help keep everything secure and prevent long term damage.
Does artificial grass smell when pets wee on it?
It shouldn’t smell if it’s installed with good drainage and you rinse it occasionally, same as you would with real lawn. Warm weather can make any outdoor surface hold odours if it’s not cleaned. A quick hose-down now and then, plus good airflow and drainage underneath, keeps pet areas fresh and easy to live with.
Will weeds grow through my artificial lawn?
Weeds don’t usually grow through the turf itself, but they can pop up around edges or from wind-blown seeds if an area is neglected. Good base prep and neat edging make a big difference. Keep debris off the surface and if the odd weed does show up, simply just pull it out.
Does artificial grass in a backyard get puddles in winter?
Not when it’s installed properly. Turf drains through the backing, but you still need a properly prepared base underneath so water can move away. If your current yard already puddles, we’ll look at drainage during the quote stage. A proper install should be able to handle downpours without turning into a swamp.
Can you install artificial grass in a small courtyard or narrow side yard?
Yes, small spaces are where artificial grass for homes often shines. Courtyards and side yards can be too shaded, too dry, or too cramped for natural grass to thrive. Turf gives you an instant “soft green” feel and makes the space more usable. We’ll also help with edging so it looks clean against walls and paths.
How long does a backyard artificial lawn usually last?
A quality turf system can last many years, especially when it’s installed well and looked after with simple maintenance. 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.
Do I need to rinse or hose down my backyard artificial grass?
A quick spray can cool it down on a hot day or rinse off dust and pollen. For homes with dogs, an occasional rinse helps to prevent any unwanted odours.
What happens during a measure and quote for a home turf install?
We’ll look at your backyard , ask how you want to use it, and check things like access, drainage, levels, and edges. Then we recommend the right backyard turf and price the job, including prep and finishing if that’s also something you require.
How do I choose the right pile height for home turf artificial grass?
Pile height affects look and feel, but it’s not “taller is always better”. A family lawn often suits something soft and realistic, while heavy-use zones can benefit from a denser feel. We’ll show you options and talk through what the lawn is mostly going to be used for, whether its kids, pets, entertaining, or low-maintenance living.
