How much does artificial grass cost?
Synthetic grass is priced per square foot.
For outdoor synthetic grass, budget $10-$15 per square foot;
For indoor synthetic grass or athletic turf, budget $7-10 per square foot.
This price varies based on any challenges associated with the installation, and which synthetic grass product is selected for the installation.
For an average lawn, expect to spend between $4,000 and $8,000.
Beware of “budget” suppliers – to save costs, some installers use inferior products or rush the installation process. Either of these will result in a significantly shorter life for your artificial grass, and end up costing you more in the long run as a result!
