Living in Clapham means making the most of every square metre, especially when outdoor space comes at such a premium. Installing a new lawn isn't just about rolling out some turf – it's about understanding the unique challenges of London clay soil and creating something that'll thrive despite the urban environment. From compact courtyard gardens near Clapham Common station to larger family spaces in the Abbeville Village area, each project demands its own approach.
Quality lawn installation starts well before any turf arrives on site. Ground preparation makes all the difference – removing old surfaces, improving drainage (crucial with our heavy London soil), and creating the perfect level base. Fresh topsoil gets worked in to give grass roots the best possible start. Once the turf rolls arrive, they're laid with precision, ensuring tight seams and proper contact with the prepared ground beneath.
Local knowledge counts when you're installing lawns across Clapham's varied property types. Victorian conversions often hide surprises beneath old surfaces, while newer developments might have compacted builders' rubble just below ground level.
