What Affects the Installed Price
- Base preparation — removing the old surface, levelling and compacting a proper base
- Infill — rubber crumb for sports turf (R36/m²) or silica sand for residential lawns
- Site access — how easily materials and equipment can reach the area
- Shock pad — recommended for competition-grade sports surfaces
Artificial grass is low maintenance once installed — no mowing, no watering, and it holds its colour through KZN’s humidity and Highveld summers alike.
