We wouldn’t recommend it as heavy vehicles will leave imprints and are also likely to rip grass fibres out
Not through it, but you will get surface weeds where airborne seeds have fallen or if damp leaves are not cleared. A stiff brush or blower will clear any weeds like this.
Unsurprisingly perhaps, the better quality the grass, the better and more lifelike it looks and feels. Some products will even have strands of brown for an even more realistic effect.
Very little really. A quick brush to get rid of garden debris will also help the pile to keep that natural look with no mowing, watering or weeding

Where the grass joins, the edges will need to be seamed, with either tape or adhesive used to attach the pieces. Once the seams are completed, the border edges will be secured most commonly with lawn spikes, a type of nail. For surfaces such as concrete, the grass is usually held in place with glue.
Artificial grass is commonly made from polyurethane and polyethylene. Nylon products are also available.
Clearly all gardens are a host of different shapes and sizes, but on average, our installation are somewhere between 50 and 60 sqm.

It is really a matter of choice and also what purpose you want to use your artificial grass for. At Outdoor Home Improvements we have the expertise to help you choose the right solution for you and your needs
