If your lawn struggles with shade, wear or muddy patches, our artificial grass installations provide a clean, consistent finish throughout the year. We work across BR2, including routes near Shortlands station and the surrounding streets towards Bromley and Beckenham. Every project starts with proper ground preparation, not shortcuts, so the surface feels firm underfoot and drains correctly. The result is a smart garden that stays usable after heavy rain and family life.
Shortlands’ quiet, affluent character and excellent rail links mean many homeowners want a low-maintenance garden that still looks premium. We regularly install turf for large Edwardian houses, Victorian villas and well-kept 1930s properties, where existing lawns can be uneven or compacted. Side access can be tight, and rear gardens often need careful material handling to protect paths and borders. Our local team plans installation around these property quirks for a neat, proportionate finish.
We survey levels, discuss how you’ll use the space (pets, play, entertaining), then design the right build-up for stability and drainage. Our installation includes a robust sub-base, accurate joins, secure fixing and clean edging to keep the turf looking sharp. We offer clear guarantees, including a 10-year warranty, and we leave the site tidy at the end of each day. Homeowners choose us for straightforward advice, quality materials and consistent workmanship.
Gardens around Shortlands can have compacted ground, old lawn build-ups and awkward levels, especially in established plots near St Mary’s Church and older housing streets. We install a properly compacted sub-base and drainage solutions to prevent pooling and rippling. Access and parking can be limited on residential roads, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Our approach suits Bromley borough expectations and keeps your garden looking smart and compliant.

Costs in Shortlands typically range from about £70–£120 per m² supplied and installed, depending on turf quality, access and ground preparation. Premium, denser piles and realistic yarns sit at the higher end, while smaller, straightforward lawns can be more economical. Extra works such as drainage improvements, steps, curves, shockpad underlay or extensive edging will increase the total. We provide a site-specific, itemised quote after a survey.
Most domestic lawns are completed in 1–3 days, depending on size, access and how much excavation is needed. If we’re removing old turf, correcting levels, installing drainage channels or building new edging, allow extra time. Weather can affect groundworks and compaction, but the turf itself is fitted quickly once the base is prepared. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after measuring and checking the existing ground conditions.
Artificial grass in a rear garden is usually permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission in the London Borough of Bromley. However, rules can differ for listed buildings, conservation areas, or if you’re altering levels significantly, adding retaining edges, or changing drainage in a way that affects neighbours. We’ll advise during the survey and can help you check any relevant constraints. Our installations are designed to manage runoff responsibly.
We install to a high standard and back our work with a 10-year warranty on the artificial grass product, subject to the manufacturer’s terms. This typically covers issues such as UV fade and defects in the turf backing. Our workmanship is also guaranteed, and we’ll explain what’s included, such as joins, fixing and edging. Normal wear, misuse or damage from sharp objects isn’t covered, but we’ll advise on care to maximise lifespan.
We offer a range of pile heights and densities, from neat 25–30mm styles to lush 35–45mm premium turf for a softer look. For families, we can add child-safe shockpad underlay; for pet owners, we recommend faster-draining options and odour-control infill where appropriate. Edging can be finished with timber, aluminium, brick or existing borders, depending on your garden style. We bring samples and help you choose a finish that suits your property and usage.
