The Many Benefits of Garden Grass

We help homeowners, house builders and local authorities to transform outdoor areas through the highest standard of soft landscaping. One of our most popular services is the laying of fresh turf, either by replacing tired old grass or repurposing an unused patch of land. 

 

Aside from new turf looking absolutely amazing, there are multiple additional benefits that it brings to your external spaces, which we’ve listed below. 

 

When the summer months arrive, there’s nothing better than going outside to enjoy the sunshine. The only problem is that it can get quite stifling very quickly, especially when there’s little cloud cover. That’s where grass comes in, as it soaks up the heat and cools down its surroundings. The larger the area of grass, the greater this natural cooling effect. 

 

Whilst this is lovely for homeowners who pop outside to make the most of their garden, it’s also perfect for businesses that want turf adding around their premises. The result is a more comfortable temperature for staff to enjoy, even when the sun won’t stop beating down. 

 

Whether it’s for your home or commercial property, we recommend considering grass where there’s currently bare ground or soil. It makes a great place to top up your tan without feeling hot and bothered. 

 

The next time you look out the window and spot some grass, take a moment to think about its important role in cleaning the air. Though you can’t see it happening, grass works hard every day by capturing dust, smoke, carbon dioxide and pollution. As part of the process, it emits fresh oxygen and makes your property a healthier place to live, work and play. 

 

When it rains heavily, dirt and sediment gradually work their way towards bodies of water. If there’s grass in its path, a lot of the pollutants are intercepted before they reach the river or stream, helping to minimise the amount of muck that enters the water source. 

 

Did you know that landscaped spaces have been proven to enhance our wellbeing? Thanks to them being so beautiful to look at, grassy areas can help us to relax, destress and even lower our blood pressure when we’re feeling anxious. They also play a role in alleviating depression and generally low moods, plus they can motivate and inspire us when we need it most. 

 

In fact, studies have shown that being amongst natural surroundings can even improve memory and focus levels, making them a great place to spend lunchtime during a hectic day. 

 

Whether you like sunbathing, doing exercise or yoga outside, reading a good book, having picnics, playing with the kids, walking the dog or simply enjoying a snack under the sun, a healthy lawn is the perfect spot for it. Grass really is ideally suited to all kinds of lifestyles, occasions and garden aesthetics, so make sure to ask us about our professional and affordable turfing service.
