Frequently asked questions

Is it really real grass? 

Yes it is! Real grass that is fresh, alive and soil-free. It’s soft and green and people can’t resist stroking it. Ask us for a sample so you can try it for yourself.

How long will it last?

It will last forever with good access to light, water, nutrients and regular trims, but not all spaces and events can provide that. Talk to us about how long you need to create an impact in your space and we’ll tell you what you’ll need to make that happen.

Does it create a mess? 

WowGrass is grown in felt so is completely soil-free. This means we can roll it out with no fuss and no mess. When you’re finished we can roll it up again too. A quick sweep round and you’ll never know we’ve been. Except you will, because everyone will still be talking about it.Will our heels sink in? 

That felt we use (one that’s made from 100% recycled British textiles) makes the WowGrass mud free. So no-one needs to worry about their heels sinking in or getting posh frocks muddy.

Does it smell of real grass?

It is real grass. It has that summery scent that you remember from childhood. One that makes you think of long lazy days and playing in the park. You’ll smell it and your guests will too.

Will there be lots of obvious joins? 

WowGrass rolls sizes can be cut specific so if needed they can come in big pieces. REALLY BIG if you need them to (and they can fit through the door!). This means there aren’t many joins. It will look like it’s been there forever when really it just appeared overnight.

Can the WowGrass team install it? 

Yes we can. Our experienced teams can install the day before your event, or if you want to have real impact we can do it overnight. We know the importance of making your clients and guests happy.

Can the WowGrass team remove it? 

We can roll it up after your event, no matter if it lasts hours or days. Just tell us when the area will be cleared and we will send in our team. We’ll clear up after ourselves too.

Is it hire or buy?

WowGrass is bought rather than hired. This means what happens to it afterwards is up to you. Let us advise you on the options if you want to keep it or give it away after the event. Or if that’s too much to think about let us come in and remove it for you.

Can we install it ourselves?

Yes you can, however it is worth bearing in mind that it is a unique living product that does make it slightly complex. If it’s your first time, we can send just one of our experienced installers to pass on some WowGrass knowledge on the day and after that you can do it yourselves.

Will it go on walls? 

On walls, on ceilings, over seats, around statues, on catwalks, on tables, inside, outside, wherever you need it. WowGrass goes in places you don’t normally find grass. And it goes on the floor of course.

Will people trip up over it? 

Your guests will be so bowled over by the sight, smell and feel of real grass that they might not be looking where they are going. To avoid any chance of unexpected forward rolls we supply trip hazard edging. With a bit of notice we can even spray paint it in your favourite colour. (Standard black looks super smart too.)

How do you fasten it to the floor? 

We don’t, because WowGrass is REAL turf grown onto a felt it is fairly heavy, meaning that it weighs itself down to the floor with slipping. 

Will it damage the floor?

If it’s indoors or if it’s a really expensive floor we will put down a waterproof protective membrane first. Then no one needs to worry.

Can you work to our budget?

We know that you’re creative vision and the budget don’t always go hand in hand at the start. Talk to us about what you want and we will suggest the best way of doing it so it doesn’t break the bank.

Can you deliver anywhere? 

WowGrass gets into the most amazing places. Down a one way street with parking restrictions in the middle of London. Into an exhibition in the centre of Paris or even the Tower of London. You tell us where you need it; we’ll make sure it gets there.

We’ve got this crazy idea that might just work, can you help? 

We love crazy ideas – just tell us what you’re thinking and we’ll help turn it into reality. We want everyone to experience something they remember. We want to create a big impact. Talk to us today about the alternative surface for your next event.

How much footfall can it withstand?

As WowGrass is a living product it’s difficult to give an accurate figure as there are so many factors that can affect this. However the premium grade grasses are grown onto a hardwearing felt. We have installed WowGrass into high footfall areas for up to a week.
