If your lawn is thin, bumpy or waterlogged, new turf can transform it fast. We turf gardens across Cheam Village and around Nonsuch Park, creating crisp edges and an even surface that’s ready to enjoy. Our team handles everything from lifting old grass to topsoil supply and precise turf laying. You’ll get clear advice on watering and mowing so the lawn beds in properly.
Cheam’s mix of period cottages, 1930s houses and executive homes often comes with varied garden levels and older borders that need careful handling. In North Cheam and Worcester Park, we regularly see compacted ground from years of footfall and patch repairs. We tailor lawn preparation to suit each plot, whether it’s a family garden or a larger rear lawn. Access and tidy working matter too, especially on narrower driveways and shared side passages.
Our process starts with a site survey, then lawn levelling, soil improvement and drainage installation where needed. We use premium turf supply for a dense, hard-wearing finish and lay it with tight joints to reduce shrinkage. Every job includes aftercare advice and optional follow-up checks to confirm establishment. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean workmanship and results that hold up through the seasons.
Gardens in the London Borough of Sutton can vary from free-draining sandy loams to heavier, compacted soils that hold water. We assess levels, fall and existing drainage before laying turf, especially on plots near Cheam Recreation Ground where wear can be higher in family gardens. For SM2 and SM3 homes, we plan deliveries and waste removal around parking and access constraints. This local approach helps us deliver consistent results across the turfing contractors Cheam area.

Costs depend on access, lawn size, ground condition and whether you need topsoil, levelling or drainage. As a guide, turf supply and laying commonly ranges from £20–£35 per m². Full preparation (removing old lawn, rotavating, levelling and topsoil) often brings totals to £35–£60 per m². Small gardens can cost more per m² due to fixed labour and disposal. We provide a detailed, itemised estimate.
Most Cheam lawns are completed in 1–2 days, depending on size and how much preparation is required. A straightforward turf replacement with minimal levelling may be done in a day. If the ground needs excavation, drainage installation, significant topsoil import or careful re-grading, allow 2–3 days. Weather, access for materials, and drying time for worked soil can also affect the schedule. We’ll confirm timings after a site visit.
Turfing and general garden improvements are usually permitted and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering land levels significantly, installing new drainage that connects to public systems, or working near protected trees or within conservation considerations around historic parts of Cheam. If your property has restrictions or you’re unsure, we’ll flag potential issues and advise on checks with the London Borough of Sutton before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for the installed lawn base, levelling and drainage elements where included.

We supply clear aftercare guidance and can arrange a follow-up visit to assess rooting and address any localised settling. If an issue is linked to installation, we’ll put it right.
We can supply premium turf suited to how you use the garden, from hard-wearing family lawns to finer ornamental finishes.
