A great lawn starts below the surface, and Brockley gardens often need careful preparation to get it right. Whether you’re near Brockley Market or walking distance from Hilly Fields, we install turf that beds in quickly and looks crisp. We take care of lawn preparation, topsoil supply, levelling and professional turf laying. The result is a lawn that drains properly and feels solid underfoot.
Homes across Brockley include Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and mansion conversions, each with different garden shapes and access constraints. In nearby Honor Oak and Crofton Park, we regularly work on long, narrow plots that need accurate levels and tidy edges. Where gardens have been compacted by building works or patio projects, we improve the soil profile before any turf goes down. That local experience helps us prevent common issues like dips, soft spots and patchy growth.
Our process is straightforward: assess the site, strip and grade, improve the soil, then lay premium turf or seed with clear aftercare advice. If drainage is a concern, we can install land drains and adjust falls before finishing. We work cleanly, protect paths and borders, and leave you with practical watering and mowing guidance for the first few weeks. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, reliable scheduling and a finish that stays level.
As turfing contractors in London Borough of Lewisham, we’re used to Brockley’s mix of clay-heavy patches and compacted sub-bases from older gardens. Access can be tight around Victorian terraces, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also factor in parking restrictions and timing, especially around SE4 streets near popular spots like Rivoli Ballroom. Our approach keeps the job efficient while protecting your home and boundaries.

Costs in Brockley typically range from £18–£35 per m² for supply and lay, depending on turf grade and access. If significant groundwork is needed—removing old lawn, adding topsoil, levelling, or installing drainage—budgets often sit around £35–£70 per m². Small gardens can cost more per m² due to set-up and disposal. We’ll survey and itemise options so you can choose the right specification.
Most turf laying jobs take 1 day for small to medium gardens once preparation is complete. If we need to remove existing turf, bring in topsoil, re-grade levels, or install drainage, allow 2–4 days depending on garden size and access. Weather also matters: heavy rain can delay soil preparation and compaction. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule and advise when the lawn can be walked on and first mown.
Turfing and routine garden landscaping are usually permitted development and don’t require planning permission in the London Borough of Lewisham. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if you’re altering levels significantly or affecting drainage that could impact neighbours. If drainage connections or major retaining works are involved, extra checks may apply. We flag any concerns early and can guide you on the right approach.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for the installed lawn base and preparation, including levelling and drainage components we fit. Turf is a living product, so its establishment depends on correct watering, mowing and seasonal conditions; we’ll give clear aftercare instructions to protect your results. If an issue relates to our installation, we’ll inspect promptly and put it right. Warranty terms are provided in writing.
We can supply premium turf options such as hard-wearing family lawns, finer ornamental turf for a neater look, and shade-tolerant mixes for gardens affected by trees and tall fences. If you prefer, we also offer seeding for larger areas or where access limits turf rolls. We’ll assess sun levels, foot traffic, pets, and drainage, then recommend the best option. Edging details and levels are planned to suit patios and borders.
