Artificial Grass and Garden Edging Tips
The goal of landscape turf, mainly when used in place of natural grass lawns, is to create a clean and aesthetically appealing front yard or backyard. Sometimes artificial grass in Toronto is installed adjacent to gardens, rocks, or other outdoor areas. So, to ensure a neat and attractive finish, landscape contractors use edgings around the borders of natural grass. When it comes to artificial grass in Toronto, there is no exception. The versatility of artificial grass allows landscape contractors the flexibility to get creative with their edging choices.
If you’re an artificial grass landscaper, here are some landscape turf edging ideas you can apply to your next installation project.
Metal Borders
Metal borders around artificial grass lawns are a more minimalist approach to edging. Clean thin metal lines provide a clean, understated division between artificial grass and other landscaping features. A favourite for separating garden beds from front lawns, metal borders are easily installed to match the bends and curves of the landscape turf.
Interlocking Bricks
Interlocking bricks still provide a neat, clean finish but with more intricacy. With traditional grass lawns, weeds reluctantly interfere with the growth of natural grass, eventually spreading into interlocking. Additionally, when interlocking bricks are paired with artificial grass in Toronto, artificial grass landscapers won’t have to worry about creating dead spots in the turf. Strong, durable, landscape turf from Echoing Green can bear the weight of the bricks.
Raised Borders
Levels are a key to an eye-catching design. By adding the dimension of raised stones between artificial grass lawns and gardens, you can, in turn, elevate the look and feel of the landscaping. Raised landscaping stones are modern and aesthetically pleasing. They also keep a defined border between artificial grass lawns and gardens to prevent damage to garden plants from strong gusts of wind and weeds or pests from infiltrating gardens, which turf from Echoing Green is equipped to bear.
Paving Stones
Paving stones are used by landscape contractors for a more stylistic, eye-catching design. When you line the perimeter of artificial grass pathways and lawns with paving stones, you increase the durability of your artificial grass installation. Paving stones are heavy-duty and resistant to deterioration. As a border around artificial grass, paving stones enhance the shapes and colours of your lawn as well as increase its security.
Concrete Curbing
Concrete curbing is a permanent edging option for property owners in Toronto. Concrete curbing is molded into a single shape and pattern and will stay that way for its entire lifespan. This works well with artificial grass in Toronto from Echoing Green, designed to perform well for decades.
