If your lawn struggles with shade, wear, or muddy patches, our team can replace it with high-quality artificial turf built for daily life. We regularly work around SE26, including gardens near Sydenham Wells Park and routes towards Bell Green. Expect a clean, professional finish with neat edges and a surface that stays usable in every season. We install for homes and businesses, from small courtyards to larger family gardens.
Sydenham’s leafy streets and period housing often come with mature trees, sloping plots, and narrow side access. We’re used to Victorian villas, Edwardian houses, and period conversions where ground levels and existing patios need careful integration. Whether you’re in Lower Sydenham or close to Forest Hill, we tailor the build-up to suit the site. That means the right base depth, stable edging, and a finish that complements traditional brickwork and stone paths.
Our process starts with a site visit to assess levels, drainage and how the garden is used by children or pets. We remove the old turf, install a compacted sub-base, add drainage solutions where needed, then lay and secure quality turf with precise joins. Every installation is completed to a clear specification, with aftercare guidance to keep it looking its best. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy workmanship, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
As artificial grass contractors in London Borough of Lewisham, we plan for varied ground conditions, from compacted clay to tree-rooted soils near Dulwich Wood. Many Sydenham properties have limited access and controlled parking, so we organise deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for slopes and existing paving levels to prevent trip edges and water run-off issues. The result is a lawn that drains properly and sits neatly within period garden layouts.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs in Sydenham typically range from about £70–£120 per m² for supply and installation, depending on turf quality, access, and how much groundwork is required. Smaller areas or awkward side access can increase labour time, while larger, clear gardens often reduce the per‑m² rate. Optional extras such as shockpad for play areas, new edging, or enhanced drainage will also affect the total.
Most domestic installations take 1–3 days once the site is prepared, with larger gardens or complex levels taking longer. The biggest time factors are removing existing turf, building a stable sub-base, and allowing for careful compaction and levelling. If we’re adding drainage channels, replacing edging, or working through narrow access in period properties, we may schedule an extra day to keep the finish precise and durable.
Artificial grass in a back garden is usually permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission. However, rules can differ for listed buildings, flats with shared grounds, or properties in conservation areas, which exist in parts of Lewisham. Drainage is also important: surfaces should not increase run-off onto neighbouring land. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and advise if you should check with the council or managing agent.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our artificial grass installations, covering workmanship and the integrity of the fit when used and maintained as advised. This includes issues such as lifting edges, failed joins, or unevenness caused by incorrect base preparation. The turf itself is supplied with manufacturer-backed guarantees depending on the product chosen. We also explain simple aftercare to protect the finish and keep drainage performing properly.
We offer a range of pile heights, colours and textures, from neat “lawn” looks to softer, longer blades that suit family gardens. Popular choices include pet-friendly turf with improved drainage, child-safe options paired with shockpad, and hard-wearing grass for commercial installations. We can also add edging in timber, aluminium or brick to match existing borders. During the survey, we bring samples and recommend the best fit for use, shade and budget.
