That patchy, tired grass behind your Victorian terrace deserves better. Fresh turf can completely transform even the most neglected Streatham gardens into spaces you'll actually want to use.
Response within 24 hours
Streatham's mix of period properties and newer developments each bring their own lawn challenges. Clay-heavy soil near the Common, shaded plots tucked behind terraced houses, and those awkward L-shaped gardens typical of SW16 conversions all need different approaches. Getting it right means understanding both the local ground conditions and how your specific plot behaves through the seasons.
Quality turf installation goes beyond simply rolling out grass. Ground preparation makes the difference between a lawn that thrives and one that struggles. Proper soil improvement, correct grading for drainage, and selecting turf varieties suited to London's climate create lawns that establish quickly. Add in careful attention to edges where paths meet grass, and you've got a professional finish that lasts.
Twenty years laying lawns across South London teaches you what works where. From compact courtyards in Streatham Hill's converted flats to the generous gardens around Furzedown, each installation draws on local knowledge built project by project.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most Streatham gardens fall between £1,800-£4,500 for complete lawn installation. Smaller terraced plots might start around £1,200, while larger properties near the Common can reach £6,000+ depending on preparation needs and access challenges.
Absolutely - from the bustling high street in SW16 to the quieter residential roads of SW2. Regular projects span Streatham Common borders, up through Streatham Hill, and across to Furzedown's tree-lined streets.
Installation typically takes 1-3 days depending on garden size. Your new lawn needs about 2-3 weeks of careful watering before normal use, though you'll see it looking established within days of laying.
Each installation includes our decade-long guarantee covering both materials and workmanship. This protects against installation faults and ensures your turf establishes properly when maintained according to our aftercare guide.
Shade-tolerant turf varieties handle the dappled light common in built-up areas well. Those north-facing gardens behind terraces or spots overshadowed by mature trees just need the right grass type and slightly adjusted maintenance to thrive.
