Bender board is what will separate your artificial grass from the rest of your landscape/garden.
You’re looking at around $21 for a four-inch roll, twenty feet long. Don’t leave this out of your budget when looking at artificial turf costs. Just add up the perimeter length of your project to calculate how many rolls you need.
- Weed Barrier Fabric
If you select turf, don’t forget the cost of weed barrier fabric to prevent any weeds poking up through your artificial turf.
This is usually sold in rolls of 1,500 square feet, about $75 a roll. However, one roll is generally enough to cover your space.
- Turf Infill
This cost is important to be mindful of, especially as it varies greatly depending on what you choose. Here are the standard choices:
Acrylic coated sand
Flex sand
Rubber
Silica sand
Again, while it may be tempting to cut costs here, “buy nice or buy twice” is a great motto when it comes to infill. It just may save you big bucks down the road. You will need about 1-2 pounds of infill per square foot.
