If your lawn is patchy, muddy or worn, new turf gives an instant upgrade with minimal disruption. We provide a complete turfing service across SM2 and SM3, including full ground preparation and precise levelling. Many clients near Cheam Village and Cheam Recreation Ground choose turf to refresh family gardens ahead of summer. Our team makes sure the finish is neat along borders, paths and patios.
Cheam’s mix of period cottages, 1930s houses and larger executive homes often comes with varied garden levels and older edging details that need careful setting-out. In North Cheam and Worcester Park, we frequently replace tired lawns where shade, foot traffic and compacted soil have taken their toll. For properties backing onto greener corridors near Nonsuch Park, we’ll also factor in leaf fall and seasonal wear. The aim is a lawn that suits how you actually use the space—pets, play, or entertaining.
Our process starts with lawn preparation: removing old turf, improving the soil profile, and correcting levels for clean mowing lines. We supply premium turf and lay it tightly with staggered joints, then roll and water-in for strong root contact. Where needed, we install drainage to prevent waterlogging and soft spots. Homeowners trust Fine Landscaping for straightforward advice, tidy workmanship, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Gardens in the London Borough of Sutton can suffer from compacted ground and uneven levels, especially after building work or years of heavy use. Access can be tight on some SM2 streets, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption and keep driveways clear. We also account for shaded plots near mature trees and adjust preparation to support healthy rooting. If drainage is a concern, we’ll recommend practical solutions before turf goes down.

For turfing in Cheam, costs typically fall between £15–£25 per square metre, depending on turf grade, access, and how much preparation is required. Most projects land around £800–£2,500 for a full supply-and-lay service. Removing old lawn, adding topsoil, levelling, and any drainage installation can increase the total. We’ll assess your garden and provide a clear, itemised estimate.
Most turfing jobs take 1–2 days from start to finish. Smaller, straightforward lawns can often be completed in a day, while larger gardens or those needing significant levelling, topsoil import, or drainage work may take longer. Weather can also affect scheduling, as very wet conditions may delay preparation. We’ll confirm timings in advance and leave you with aftercare steps for the first few weeks.
Turfing and general garden improvements are usually permitted and don’t require planning permission in the London Borough of Sutton. However, rules can apply if your property is listed, within a conservation area, or if works affect protected trees or shared boundaries. If drainage connects to existing systems, we’ll also consider any relevant regulations. We’ll flag potential issues during the survey and advise on the safest route.
Yes. Our turfing work is backed by a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, such as levels, edging finish, and installation standards. Turf is a living product, so long-term performance also depends on correct watering, mowing, and feeding—especially in the first 4–6 weeks. We provide clear aftercare guidance and will advise on any site-specific risks like shade or drainage. If there’s an installation-related issue, we’ll put it right.
We supply premium turf options to suit different gardens and lifestyles, including hard-wearing family turf, finer ornamental turf, and more shade-tolerant mixes where conditions allow. The best choice depends on foot traffic, pets, sunlight, and how you prefer the lawn to look and feel. We’ll assess your site, explain the pros and cons, and recommend the most reliable option for your maintenance level and budget.
