An artificial grass roof terrace feels like a small garden above the city – without soil, watering, or mowing. However, special requirements apply here.
Key Considerations
- Protect the waterproofing: never drill or nail; lay artificial grass loosely or only glue it to suitable surfaces
- Water drainage: utilize the slope and lay a drainage mat underneath; keep drains clear
- Wind: secure edges and consider wind uplift
- Heat: on sunny areas, consider the surface temperature
- Fire protection: observe fire behavior and, if applicable, building regulations
Many tips also apply to balconies – see the guide Artificial Grass on the Balcony.
