If your garden needs a fresh start, our team can transform it with professional turfing in SW16. We work across Norbury, including near Norbury station and along Norbury High Street, installing lawns that look great and cope with family life. Every job begins with proper lawn preparation, levelling and the right topsoil. The result is a smooth, healthy surface that’s ready for regular use.
Norbury’s mix of Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and Victorian conversions often comes with long rear gardens, side access constraints and uneven ground from years of use. We’re used to lawns that sit lower than patios, slopes that hold water, and compacted soil from building works. As turfing contractors Norbury area homeowners rely on, we tailor the build-up to suit each plot. That means the turf roots quickly and stays greener for longer.
Our process is straightforward: remove debris and poor ground, install drainage where needed, supply quality topsoil, level accurately, then lay premium turf with tight joints and correct rolling. Where turf isn’t the best fit, we can also seed for larger areas or shaded spots. We provide clear aftercare advice for watering and first cuts, and we stand behind our workmanship. Local homeowners choose us for neat finishes, reliable scheduling and consistent results.
