Would it be suitable for a budget offer, to just pour concrete and paint it green? Or use green dye in it? The customers wouldn't have trouble with BBQ, cigarettes, pet droppings, just hose it clean. They can lay artificial grass later, or add pavement on top.

@@AsensioPedro Continental Europe here, a bit less rain than in UK/Ireland, but we also get mud if the soil isn't permeable (too much clay) and moss in shade, and with not enough nutrients. I tturned to leaving grass clippings on the lawn, to preserve nutrients. If lawn really doesn't work, I would get rid of it, plant everything and create a patio of reasonable size.
