artificial grass needed, 7% wastage
Otis prices grass, base, membrane and joining tape as one job on your live stock.
Includes 7% wastage for pattern matching and cuts, and a 50mm compacted base. An estimate, always confirm with your merchant.
How the numbers work
Artificial grass comes on rolls, usually 2m or 4m wide, and needs a little extra so the pile direction matches across joins and to allow for cuts, so the tool adds 7 percent. Underneath sits a compacted base, which the tool estimates as sand or grano, and a weed membrane across the area.
On soft ground you may need a deeper sub base first, so check your build up.
This is what Otis does, instantly
