Trampolines are a popular piece of backyard equipment for Aussie kids — they give hours of enjoyment while getting the kids outside in the fresh air and burning off energy. But maintaining natural grass under and around a trampoline is one of the most difficult lawn maintenance challenges a homeowner faces.
The area under the trampoline mat does not receive much sunshine and the grass tends to suffer badly. This area usually ends up as bare dirt or covered in uncontrolled weeds. In wet weather it can be even worse — often ending up as a muddy mess that gets tracked inside every time a child jumps off. There has to be a better solution — and there is. Artificial grass is perfect for trampolines and children's play areas.
Why Is Artificial Grass Great for Trampolines?
Artificial grass is a popular and widely used alternative in pre-schools, playgrounds, childcare centres, and schools throughout Australia. It is non-toxic and safe for children of all ages.
- Soft-fall certified — the surface is impact absorbing and reduces the risk of injury if children fall
- Mud-free year-round — no more muddy patches after Brisbane rain
- Solves the shade problem — artificial grass thrives in the low-light conditions under a trampoline where natural grass cannot survive
- No bare dirt or weeds — looks great all year round regardless of weather or season
- Non-toxic and child-safe — used in childcare centres and schools across Australia
- Works with above-ground and sunken trampolines
- Great for all other play equipment too — slippery slides, cubby houses, and swing sets
- No mowing, watering, or fertilising required
- Low maintenance — just a rake or blower vac to freshen it up occasionally
- Durable and long-lasting — looks amazing all year round, rain or shine
Above-Ground and Sunken Trampolines — Both Covered
Traditional Above-Ground Trampolines
Artificial turf is a great option for traditional above-ground trampolines. It solves the problem of grass dying under the frame, eliminates the muddy access area that children walk through to climb on, and creates a clean, safe zone around the entire trampoline. You will never need to mow around the legs or worry about access underneath the mat ever again.
Sunken Trampolines
Sunken trampolines that sit at ground level are increasingly popular — and artificial grass is the ideal surface to install around and between the trampoline and the surrounding garden. It creates a seamless, level green area that looks intentional and well-designed rather than a patchwork of dying grass and dirt. The grass looks amazing all year round, rain or shine.
Complete Backyard Play Areas
Artificial grass works beautifully as the surface for an entire children's play zone — not just under the trampoline but across the whole area that includes slippery slides, cubby houses, and swing sets. One continuous, soft-fall certified surface for all the play equipment creates a safer, cleaner, and much more attractive backyard play area.

Frequently Asked Questions About Artificial Grass for Trampolines
Is artificial grass safe for children around trampolines?
Yes. The artificial grass Turf Green installs is non-toxic and certified as a soft-fall surface — meaning it is impact absorbing and reduces the risk of injury if children fall. It is the same type of surface used in childcare centres, pre-schools, and playgrounds across Australia.
Will artificial grass grow under a trampoline where natural grass won't?
Yes — this is one of the biggest advantages of artificial grass in a trampoline area. Natural grass requires sunlight and struggles badly under the shaded, high-traffic environment beneath a trampoline mat. Artificial grass requires no sunlight, no watering, and no growing conditions — it simply stays green and intact regardless of how much shade or foot traffic it receives.
Does artificial grass get muddy under a trampoline after rain?
No. Artificial grass is perforated and installed over a porous crusher dust sub-base, allowing water to drain freely through the surface. There are no muddy patches, no waterlogging, and no bare dirt — even after Brisbane's heavy summer downpours.
Can artificial grass be installed around a sunken trampoline?
Yes. Turf Green installs artificial grass around sunken trampolines regularly. The grass is cut and finished to fit seamlessly around the trampoline frame, creating a clean, level surface across the entire play area. All sites are assessed at your free on-site visit before quoting.
How much maintenance does artificial grass require around a trampoline?
Minimal. A rake or blower vac to freshen up the fibres and remove leaf litter occasionally is all that is needed. There is no mowing, watering, fertilising, or repairing bare patches — ever. The occasional light spray to control any edge weeds that might appear is all the chemical treatment required.
Can the same artificial grass surface work for other play equipment in the backyard?
Absolutely. Artificial grass is ideal for the entire children's play zone — covering the area around slippery slides, cubby houses, swing sets, and the trampoline as one continuous safe surface. Contact Turf Green to discuss designing a complete backyard play area for your family.
