Whether you’re a homeowner, landscaper, or contractor, this calculator helps you make informed decisions by providing accurate estimates for materials and costs. Here’s how it benefits you:
Accurate Material Estimation:
- The calculator determines the total area of artificial grass required for your project, factoring in dimensions or pre-calculated areas.
- It calculates the number of grass rolls needed based on your chosen roll size (e.g., 2m × 25m or 4m × 25m).
Cost Calculation:
- Provides an estimated price range based on Relyir’s competitive pricing ($8–$60 per square meter), helping you plan your budget effectively.
Customizable Inputs:
- Allows you to adjust for waste factors (0–100%) to account for cutting or irregularly shaped areas.
- Offers flexibility with unit preferences (meters or feet) and pre-entered total area options.
How to Use the Artificial Grass Calculator
1. Choose Your Calculation Mode
- Select either “Calculate by Dimensions” if you know the length and width of your area, or “I Already Know the Total Area” if you have pre-measured your space.
2. Enter Your Details
- For dimensions: Input the length, width, unit (meters/feet), and waste factor (%).
- For total area: Directly input the total area in square meters.
3. Choose Your Grass Roll Size
- Select from standard roll sizes: 2m × 25m (50 sqm) or 4m × 25m (100 sqm).
4. Click “Calculate”
- Instantly receive results for total area, grass rolls needed, and estimated cost range.
Tips for Best Results
- Use accurate measurements for length and width to ensure precise calculations.
- Adjust the waste factor if your project involves irregularly shaped areas or significant cutting.
- If you’re unsure about roll sizes or pricing, feel free to contact us for personalized assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is an Artificial Grass Calculator?
An artificial grass calculator is a tool that estimates the amount of artificial turf needed for a specific project and its associated costs. By entering dimensions like length and width, and considering factors such as roll size and waste allowance, the calculator provides an accurate estimate of materials required.
How do I measure my area for artificial grass?
To measure your area:
- Use a tape measure or measuring wheel.
- Measure the longest and widest points of the space.
- For irregular shapes, divide the area into smaller sections (rectangles, triangles, etc.) and calculate each separately.
- Add 5-10% extra for cutting, seaming, and waste.
What tools do I need to measure for artificial grass?
You’ll need:
- A tape measure or measuring wheel
- Pen/pencil
- Paper (graph paper is helpful for odd shapes)
- Calculator.
Why do I need to add extra turf for waste?
Adding 5-10% extra accounts for cutting, seaming, and adjustments needed for irregular shapes or installation patterns. This ensures full coverage without gaps.
Can I use the calculator for different garden shapes?
Yes, calculators can handle various shapes:
- For square/rectangular areas: Multiply length by width.
- For circular areas: Measure diameter as if it were a rectangle.
- For irregular or L-shaped areas: Divide into smaller sections, calculate each separately, then sum them up.
What factors influence the cost of artificial grass installation?
Key factors include:
- Total square meters of the project area.
- Type and quality of artificial grass.
- Ground preparation needs.
- Additional materials like infill or drainage systems.
- Labor costs for professional installation.
How quickly can I get an estimate using an artificial grass calculator?
Most calculators provide instant estimates once you input your project details. The process typically takes less than a minute.
Is artificial grass more cost-effective than natural turf?
Artificial grass has higher upfront costs but lower maintenance expenses over time (no watering, mowing, or fertilizing). Over its lifespan, it often proves more economical compared to natural turf.
How do I calculate turf requirements for irregularly shaped areas?
For irregularly shaped areas:
- Break the space into smaller rectangles or triangles.
- Calculate each section’s square meters separately.
- Add up all sections to determine total square meters.
- Include 5-10% extra for waste.
What is the standard roll size for artificial grass?
The standard roll sizes are typically 2 meters × 25 meters or 4 meters × 25 meters. Custom sizes are also available with a maximum width of 5 meters.
Why do small projects cost more per square meter?
Smaller projects often incur higher per-square-meter costs due to fixed expenses like delivery fees, equipment setup, and labor that don’t scale down proportionally with size.
Can I calculate installation costs manually without a calculator?
Yes, you can manually estimate costs by:
- Calculating total square meters (length × width).
- Adding 5-10% for waste.
- Multiplying by the cost per square meter of your chosen turf type.
- Including additional expenses like labor and accessories.
What other considerations should I keep in mind when using an artificial grass calculator?
- Ensure accurate measurements to avoid underestimating material needs.
- Consider roll directionality to maintain uniform blade orientation.
- Factor in additional features like drainage systems or pet-friendly options if needed.
