Skidby back garden transformed with Artificial Grass for pets

Posted: October 13, 2025

Client

  • Homeowner in the Hull area seeking a low‑maintenance, pet‑friendly lawn for a rear garden measuring 75 m². The existing turf suffered from unevenness and bare patches, and looked very tired and unattractive.

Project brief

  • Replace the existing poor grass with a durable, realistic artificial turf that copes with pets, improves drainage and reduces maintenance.
  • The client wanted the new lawn to look natural year‑round, be safe for dogs and children, and to be completed quickly with minimal disruption.

Solution selected

  • Product: Easi Pet artificial turf chosen for:
    • specialist pet‑friendly construction that resists odour and prevents matting under heavy use;
    • excellent drainage performance suitable for the garden’s clay soils;
    • realistic appearance with mixed green tones and a soft, resilient pile ideal for play;
    • easy maintenance — no mowing, no mud, simple cleaning routines.
  • Scope: full removal of existing turf, preparation of sub‑base, installation of a weed‑suppressing membrane, infill and finishing.
  • Total treated area: 75 m².

Timeline

  • Pre‑start: free site survey and product consultation to confirm specifications and measure the area.
  • Day 1 — strip out and groundwork:
    • existing turf and topsoil removed;
    • sharp sand and crushed stone laid and compacted to form a stable, free‑draining sub‑base;
    • weed membrane installed.
  • Day 2 — fitting:
    • Easi Pet turf rolled out and allowed to acclimatise.
    • seams trimmed and joined using specialist adhesive and joining tape where required;
    • edges secured and perimeter finished for a neat look.
  • Day 3 — finishing and handover:
    • infill applied and brushed in to lift pile and improve resilience;
    • final grooming and clean‑up;
    • client walkthrough, care instructions and demonstration of pet maintenance routines.
  • Total on‑site time: 3 days. No unexpected delays; programme completed on schedule.

Performance highlights

  • Pet performance: Easi Pet’s fibre construction resists matting and odour build‑up; cleaning is straightforward (brush, hose and occasional disinfectant).
  • Drainage: the prepared sub‑base combined with the turf’s drainage capacity prevents pooling and reduces mud, even on the site’s previously poor drainage.
  • Appearance: realistic, year‑round green with natural texture — no visible joins.
  • Maintenance savings: client eliminated mowing, reduced water use and expects lower ongoing lawn care costs and effort.

Client feedback

  • The homeowner reported satisfaction with the quick turnaround, the look and feel of the new lawn and the ease of ongoing cleaning with their dog.
  • They highlighted the professionalism of the installation team and appreciated the clear advice given during the site survey and handover.

Summary

  • Project: 75 m² back garden transformed in 3 days using Easi Pet turf.
  • Outcome: durable, pet‑friendly, low‑maintenance lawn with improved drainage and a natural look. The installation delivered on time and met the client’s requirements for function and appearance.
