If your lawn is patchy, muddy or uneven, our team can transform it with professional turfing in Sutton. We work across Cheam, Carshalton and nearby streets off Sutton High Street, tailoring the build-up to your garden’s condition. Expect careful lawn preparation, accurate levelling and neat edges that suit patios, paths and borders. We can also supply topsoil and improve drainage where water sits after rain.
Sutton’s mix of 1930s semis, Victorian terraces and modern developments often comes with compacted ground, shaded corners and tired turf. In SM2 and SM3 gardens, we frequently see uneven levels from old landscaping and thin topsoil over clay. We adapt the turf specification and soil profile to match how you use the space—play, pets, entertaining or low-maintenance greenery. That local understanding helps your new lawn bed in evenly and stay resilient through the seasons.
Our process is straightforward: remove failing grass, set levels, install drainage if needed, then lay premium turf with tight joints and proper consolidation. We finish with clean edges, a first watering plan and practical aftercare advice so you know exactly when to water, mow and feed. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, clear communication and reliable scheduling—especially when access is tight near the St Nicholas Centre or busier roads. For longer-term peace of mind, our workmanship is backed by a 10-year warranty.
As turfing contractors in London Borough of Sutton, we’re used to clay-heavy soils, compacted sub-bases and gardens that hold water in winter. We plan deliveries and waste removal around residential parking, and we keep disruption low for terraced streets and shared access paths. Near Manor Park and other green spaces, lawns often face shade and higher foot traffic, so we recommend turf and soil builds that cope better. We also work to tidy, neighbour-friendly standards throughout SM1–SM3.

Costs in Sutton vary with access, ground condition and whether you need topsoil, levelling or drainage. As a guide, supply and lay of quality turf commonly starts around £25–£45 per m² for straightforward gardens. Where significant excavation, waste removal, new topsoil, or drainage installation is required, budgets often rise to £50–£90+ per m². We provide a site visit and itemised options so you can compare like-for-like.
Most small to medium Sutton gardens can be prepared and turfed in 1–2 days, provided access is reasonable and the ground isn’t waterlogged. Larger lawns, complex shaping, or projects needing substantial levelling, topsoil import, or drainage installation may take 2–4 days. Weather, skip placement, and how quickly we can remove old turf also affect timings. We’ll confirm a schedule before starting and keep you updated daily.
Turfing and most garden lawn improvements are usually permitted and don’t require planning permission in the London Borough of Sutton. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, working near boundaries that affect neighbours, or dealing with protected trees and their root zones. If drainage connects to existing systems, we’ll ensure it’s done appropriately. We’ll flag any potential council considerations during the survey and advise on next steps.
Yes. Our workmanship is covered by a 10-year warranty, giving you confidence in the preparation, levelling and installation standards. Turf is a living product, so establishment depends on correct watering, mowing and seasonal care, plus weather conditions. We provide clear aftercare guidance and can recommend maintenance visits if you want ongoing support. The warranty covers installation-related issues, not damage from neglect, drought, pests or heavy misuse.
We supply and lay several turf types, including hard-wearing family lawns, finer ornamental turf, and shade-tolerant options for gardens with trees or north-facing sections. If you prefer, we can also seed areas, which can be cost-effective for larger spaces or awkward shapes. Finishes include lawn levelling, topsoil improvement and optional drainage installation. We’ll help you choose based on sunlight, soil, pets, usage and the look you want.
