If your garden has worn patches, uneven ground or persistent moss, a new lawn can transform how the space looks and feels. Our team installs fresh turf or seed lawns across SE19, with careful preparation that helps the grass establish quickly. We regularly work near Norwood Grove Park and Upper Norwood, where gardens often need improved levels and drainage. Expect neat edges, crisp lines and a lawn that suits how you use the space.
Norwood Grove is known for Victorian houses, Edwardian properties and period conversions, which often come with mature boundaries and compact rear gardens. These plots can have shaded corners, tree roots and older paths that affect how a lawn should be built. We tailor the base and soil profile so the lawn performs well in both sunny and sheltered areas. Homeowners in Crystal Palace and South Norwood also choose us when they want a premium finish without disrupting neighbours.
Our process starts with site preparation: clearing, improving the sub-base, adding quality topsoil and grading for smooth levels. We then supply and lay high-grade turf, or offer a seeding option where timing and budget suit, finishing with edging for a sharp border. Every job includes practical aftercare guidance for mowing, watering and feeding, plus clear expectations on establishment. Fine Landscaping is only 15 minutes away, so support is close by if you need follow-up advice.
We’re used to the mixed ground conditions found across the London Borough of Croydon, including compacted soil and clay-heavy areas that need careful preparation. Access can be tight around period terraces and conversions, so we plan deliveries, protect routes through the property, and keep the site tidy. Where parking is limited, we schedule turf supply for efficient unloading and minimal disruption. This is lawn installation Norwood Grove area homeowners rely on for a precise finish.

Costs vary with size and the amount of groundwork needed. As a guide, turf installation often falls around £55–£110 per m² including preparation, topsoil (where required) and laying. Seeding is usually lower, roughly £18–£45 per m², but takes longer to establish. Uneven gardens, poor drainage, heavy clay, or extensive removal of old lawn can increase the overall price.
Most turf lawns are installed in 1–2 days for an average rear garden, with larger or more complex sites taking 2–4 days. Seeding can be completed quickly, but establishment is typically 6–12 weeks depending on weather and season. Timescales are affected by access, how much levelling is required, whether topsoil is needed, and if we’re installing edging or reshaping borders at the same time.
In most cases, lawn installation is permitted and doesn’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if the work changes levels significantly near boundaries or affects drainage onto neighbouring land. We’ll flag any potential issues early and can advise on best practice for surface water management. If needed, we’ll help you check relevant Croydon guidance before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering installation-related issues such as poor grading, edging failures, or problems caused by incorrect base preparation. Living materials like turf and seed depend on watering, mowing and weather, so we also give clear aftercare instructions to support establishment. If you have concerns during the settling-in period, we’ll inspect and advise on corrective steps promptly.
You can choose premium turf for an instant lawn, or a seeding option for flexibility and cost control. Turf types can be selected for family use, pets, shade tolerance or a finer ornamental finish. We also offer edging choices such as steel, timber, brick or flush-cut natural edges to suit period gardens. For lawn installation in Norwood Grove, we’ll recommend the best option based on light levels, soil condition and how you use the space.
