Artificial Grass Swimming Pool Landscaping
Landscaping has the ability to transform any backyard into a modern oasis that can be enjoyed for years to come by friends and family.
For that reason, artificial grass has quickly become an integral part of swimming pool landscapes across the country.
Traditionally, most in-ground swimming pool decks are made of concrete or other hard materials. But concrete is expensive, tile can become dangerously slippery when wet, wood decking requires a ton of maintenance, and pavers take a lot of elbow grease to keep up.
A swath of green extending around your pool offers a level of beauty and functionality that other pool decking materials just can’t compete with, deeming artificial grass the best choice for swimming pool surrounds.
Here’s why artificial grass is the best material for swimming pool landscaping:
Safety
Pool decks covered with artificial grass provide a beautiful landscape around swimming pools and add an extra layer of safety. Slippery pool decks, like those of concrete and tile, are a big concern for most households—especially those that include children. Because artificial grass features a cushioned, slip-resistant poolside surface, residents and parents can sit back and relax a little further into their chair while the kids play.
Drainage
Artificial grass for pool surrounds boasts superior drainage properties. Unlike other pool deck materials, the backing material to which the blades of artificial grass are attached is permeable so water can pass through and quickly drain to the ground below and dry faster.
Durability
Even in the Midwest where Mother Nature has drastic mood swings, artificial grass is tough enough to stand up to all outdoor conditions and climates. So year after year (for upwards of 15-20 years!), your artificial grass pool surrounds will still look and feel like it did the same day it was installed.
Low Maintenance
A swimming pool is plenty of maintenance in and of itself. So instead of choosing a pool deck material that adds more to your to-do list, choose artificial grass. Artificial grass requires virtually no maintenance, which means you can spend more time enjoying your backyard oasis.
Whether in your own backyard, at the public pool, a private country club, or even surrounding indoor pools, artificial grass will give your pool area a more relaxed, natural appearance. Summer is right around the corner and it’s time to take the plunge and install an artificial grass pool deck!
