Give your garden the WOW factor with PST Lawns
Artificial grass is becoming more and more popular with homeowners all over Ireland as a low maintenance alternative to a natural grass lawn. Gardens are not just seen as an outdoor area anymore, but as an extension of your total living space. It’s like having another room in the house!
Kieran Donaghy here from PST Lawns, Ireland’s leading supplier of premium artificial grass. For over 12 years we've been supplying top quality artificial grass to homeowners and landscapers nationwide.
We have a brand-new warehouse in Monavalley, Tralee fully stocked with a wide range of the highest quality artificial grass products designed specifically for landscaping. Grass types range from 25mm to 40mm pile height to create an instant low maintenance lawn. Here are a few frequently asked questions I get asked...
Is artificial grass safe for children?
Absolutely, kids love it! Our grass provides a clean and safe area for your kids to play all year round. For extra peace of mind, you can install shock pad foam underlay underneath to provide additional shock absorbency and give kids that extra little bit of protection.
Is artificial grass easy to install?
The great thing about our artificial grass is that it can be laid over pretty much any surface and it’s very easy to install. Installing the artificial grass yourself is a great way of saving money, and if you have basic DIY skills it’s very straightforward.
We’ll send you our step-by-step installation guide to take you through every part of the process and our team are always on hand to offer any advice. PST Lawns stock everything you’ll need to install the artificial grass including glue and seam tape, shock pad foam underlay and high-grade silica sand.
Can it be put down on concrete?
No problem, it can easily be laid over concrete and completely transform the look of your outside space.
Is it safe for my dog?
It’s perfect for pets, and with the added bonus of NO muddy paws! When cleaning up after your pet it’s just like any other grass area, large particles will have to be scooped up, but any other particles will wash away in the rain.
How wide are the rolls?
Our artificial grass comes in either 2m or 4m rolls with each roll length being 25mm. Grass is cut to order to your exact measurements, and you can collect directly from our warehouse, or we can arrange delivery, whatever suits you best.
How do you stick it down?
A layer of sand brushed on top will weigh the grass down and keep it in place. The sand infill also helps the grass fibres stand upright for longer, extending the lifespan of your new lawn. When installing onto concrete or tarmac you can also glue the grass down as well as to edging etc.
Is it easy to keep clean?
Regular brushing will keep your artificial grass looking its best, removing any leaves and debris and keeps the fibres standing upright.
What is the lead time?
Usually five to 10 working days, depending on where you live in the country.
How long does it last?
With proper maintenance our artificial grass products will last 15 to 20 years.

A new event has been added to the extensive Wander Wild Festival next weekend.
Kerry Orienteers will run a family-friendly Urban Orienteering event as part of the festival on March 25.
Participants can start at the Killarney Plaza Hotel Basecamp anytime from 2-4pm on Saturday.
Orienteering is an exciting outdoor adventure sport which involves walking or running whilst navigating around a course using a detailed map and sometimes a compass. And the Wander Wild Street Orienteering will have courses suitable for all ages and abilities.
“The aim is to navigate in sequence between a set of control points and decide the best route to complete the course in the quickest time. It does not matter how young, old or fit you are, as you can run, walk or jog the course and progress at your own pace. If you need any help or tips members of Kerry Orienteering Club will be available to assist during the day,” said organiser Brendan O’Brien.
Two routes are available: ‘Wander’ – 2km (easy, wheelchair and buggy accessible) and Wild – 4km (moderate), and bookings can be made via: https://t.ly/jHm2R.

Quiz helps to fund Easter pilgrimage

A popular annual table quiz, which raises funds to send Kerry children and young adults with special needs to Lourdes, will be held in Killarney next week.
The Tim Moore Memorial Table Quiz will be held in the Gleneagle Hotel at 7.30pm on Wednesday, March 29.
The entry fee for tables of four is €40 and it is €20 for teams of four schoolchildren with great prizes up for grabs on the night.
All proceeds will go to the Irish Pilgrimage Trust which organises trips to Lourdes every Easter for children and young adults with additional needs.
They will be brought on the pilgrimage on Easter Sunday and all the volunteer helpers and medical staff that will accompany them will cover for their own travel costs.
The annual quiz, which is running for close on 30 years, is dedicated to the memory of the late Killarney accountant Tim Moore who was a tireless campaigner for the Irish Pilgrimage Trust. He passed away, suddenly, in 2002 and his friends have continued the quiz as a tribute to his legacy and to ensure the charity continues to be supported.
It hasn’t been held for the past two years due to the pandemic but all involved are thrilled that it is back for 2023.
Kieran Coffey, the retired principal of Fossa National School, is one of those who spearhead the Kerry pilgrimage to Lourdes and he has appealed to the public to support the very important fundraiser which helps offset some of the costs involved.
“We are delighted to be in a position to continue Tim’s great work and to dedicate the quiz to him. The event is always so well supported by the people of the greater Killarney area and we greatly appreciate that generosity,” said Kieran.
