If your garden has turned patchy, compacted or uneven, a new lawn can transform it fast. We install fresh turf and seed lawns across SE4, from Crofton Park to Honor Oak. Our team regularly works near Brockley Market and Hilly Fields, so we understand the local mix of sun, shade and foot traffic. Expect neat lines, level ground and a lawn that looks right against period brickwork and planting beds.
Brockley’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions often come with long, narrow gardens and shared side access. That means materials need to be planned carefully, with minimal disruption to neighbours and paths. We’ll assess drainage, existing soil quality and any slopes before recommending turf or seed. For family gardens and pet use, we can specify hard-wearing turf varieties and practical edging details.
Our process starts with site preparation: removing debris, improving levels, adding topsoil and grading for proper falls. We then supply quality turf and lay it correctly, or provide a seeding option where timing and budget suit. Every job includes crisp edging and a clear aftercare plan for watering, mowing and feeding. Fine Landscaping is based just 25 minutes away, so support is close by if you need follow-up advice.
Gardens in the London Borough of Lewisham can have variable soils, from compacted clay to made-up ground in older plots. Access around Brockley’s terraces can be tight, so we plan deliveries, barrow routes and waste removal to keep things tidy. We also factor in street parking restrictions and school-run traffic when scheduling. The result is a smoother installation day and a better-finished lawn.

Costs vary with access, ground condition and whether you choose turf or seed. As a guide, turf installation (including preparation, topsoil where needed and laying) commonly falls around £45–£90 per m² in Brockley. Seeding can be lower, often £20–£45 per m², but may need more aftercare time. Uneven ground, drainage fixes, or lots of waste removal can increase the overall price.
Most turf lawns are installed in 1–2 days for an average Brockley back garden, including preparation and edging. Larger plots or gardens needing significant levelling, extra topsoil, or drainage improvements may take 2–4 days. Seeding is usually quicker to install, but it takes longer to establish and can be weather-dependent. Access constraints and skip/parking arrangements can also affect timings.
In most cases, lawn installation is classed as routine garden work and doesn’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if works change site levels significantly or affect drainage onto neighbouring land. We’ll flag any potential issues and advise on best practice. If needed, we can help you check guidance for the London Borough of Lewisham before work starts.
Yes. Our workmanship comes with a 10-year warranty covering installation-related issues such as poor grading, inadequate preparation, or turf laying defects that lead to failure. Living products can be affected by weather, watering and foot traffic, so the warranty doesn’t cover neglect, drought damage, pest infestation or accidental harm. We provide clear aftercare instructions and can return for maintenance visits to help your lawn establish well.
We can supply a range of turf types, including hard-wearing family lawns, ornamental finer turf, and shade-tolerant options for gardens with trees or tall boundaries. If you prefer seed, we’ll recommend blends suited to use levels and soil conditions, plus the right topsoil and fertiliser plan. Edging can be cut turf edges, timber, steel, or brick/stone details to suit period properties. We’ll help you choose based on look, budget and maintenance.
