If your lawn struggles with shade, wear or muddy patches, artificial grass is a smart replacement for South Croydon gardens. We install realistic, soft turf that looks great in every season and stays usable after rain. Many of our projects are around CR2, with easy access via South Croydon station. We also work near green spaces such as Lloyd Park, where families value clean, child-safe surfaces.
South Croydon is a leafy residential area with excellent schools and plenty of outdoor space, so gardens get used properly. We regularly fit turf in large detached houses, 1930s semis and Victorian villas across Sanderstead, Purley and central Croydon. These properties often have sloping lawns, shaded borders or tired grass after years of play. Our installations are designed to suit the layout, levels and style of each garden.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and agree the finish you want, then remove the old lawn and build a stable sub-base. Drainage solutions are included as standard where needed, so water moves through the system rather than pooling. Every edge is finished neatly for a sharp, natural look, and we keep disruption to a minimum. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, tidy workmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
As artificial grass contractors in London Borough of Croydon, we’re used to South Croydon’s mixed ground conditions, from compacted clay to made-up garden soils. Access can be tight on some roads near CR2, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to keep things smooth. Slopes and terraced levels are common, especially near Croham Hurst Woods, so we set accurate falls and edges to keep the surface stable. We also coordinate with commercial sites where out-of-hours working is required.

Costs vary by turf grade, access and groundwork. As a guide in South Croydon, supply-and-install projects often start around £70–£110 per m² for straightforward areas. Premium, denser “quality turf”, complex shapes, extra edging, or significant excavation and waste removal can take it to £110–£160+ per m². We’ll survey your garden and provide a detailed, itemised estimate.
Most domestic installations take 1–3 days, depending on size and how much preparation is needed. Replacing an old lawn with good access is often completed in a day or two. Larger gardens, multiple levels, steps, or new edging and drainage solutions can extend the job to 3–5 days. Weather rarely stops work, but very wet ground can slow excavation and compaction.
Artificial grass in a rear garden is usually permitted development and doesn’t need planning permission. The main considerations are drainage and ensuring water can soak away rather than run onto neighbouring land. If you’re in a listed building, a conservation area, or you’re altering levels significantly, extra rules may apply. We’ll flag any potential issues and advise what to check with Croydon Council.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our artificial grass installations, covering workmanship and installation-related issues such as lifting at joins or edge failures (subject to normal use and care). The turf itself also comes with a manufacturer warranty, which varies by product grade. We’ll explain what’s included, how to maintain the surface, and what could void cover, such as damage from hot coals or sharp objects.
You can choose from different pile heights, colour tones and densities, from a neat “lawn” look to a softer, plush finish. Popular options include pet-friendly grass with odour-reducing infill, child-safe play areas with shock-pad underlay, and durable turf for commercial installations. We can also add edging in sleepers, steel or stone, plus discreet drainage channels where needed. We’ll bring samples and recommend the best match for your garden and budget.
