If your garden is patchy, muddy or uneven, new turf is the quickest route to a clean, usable lawn. We install fresh turf across SM4, including Morden Park and Morden South, with careful preparation so it beds in fast. Many clients want a family-friendly surface that stands up to pets, play and summer barbecues. We can also improve problem areas where water sits after rain.
Morden’s mix of 1930s semis, post-war estates and modern developments often comes with compacted soil, tired grass, or gardens that have been heavily used. Homes near Morden station and around St Helier frequently have narrow side access, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. Whether you’re refreshing a small rear lawn or re-turfing a larger plot, we tailor the groundwork to your property. The result is a lawn that looks tidy and feels even underfoot.
Our process covers lawn preparation, levelling, premium turf supply and precise turf laying with tight joins. Where needed, we add drainage installation to reduce puddling and winter waterlogging. We work to a clear schedule, keep the site clean, and give straightforward aftercare advice on watering and first mowing. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, reliable communication, and a finish that lasts.
We’re on site in around 15 minutes, so surveys and follow-ups are easy to arrange. Across the turfing Morden area, we often find compacted ground and uneven levels from old paths or previous landscaping. We plan for access and parking on residential roads, and we remove spoil responsibly. For turfing in London Borough of Merton, we also advise on run-off and drainage so lawns cope better with heavy rain.

Turfing is typically £15–£25 per square metre in Morden, depending on turf type, access and how much preparation is needed. Most projects fall around £800–£2,500, covering removal of old grass, soil improvement, levelling and laying. If your garden needs significant regrading, extra topsoil, or drainage to fix waterlogging, costs can sit toward the higher end. We provide a site-specific quote after a quick visit.
Most turfing jobs take 1–2 days, with day one focused on clearing, preparation and levelling, and the final stage being turf laying and tidy-up. Smaller lawns can sometimes be completed in a day, while larger gardens or those needing drainage installation may take longer. Weather, access for materials, and the condition of the existing ground all affect timings. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before we start.
Turfing and general garden improvements are usually permitted development and don’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage run-off, working near boundaries, or if your property has special restrictions. If drainage installation connects to existing systems, we’ll also consider practical compliance and good practice. We’ll flag any potential issues early and advise if you should check with Merton Council.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship, covering issues caused by installation errors such as poor levelling, inadequate preparation, or turf not being laid correctly. Turf is a living product, so its long-term success also depends on watering, mowing and seasonal care, which we explain clearly at handover. If you have concerns during establishment, we’re happy to advise on corrective steps to protect your lawn.
We can supply premium turf options to suit how you use the garden, including hard-wearing family turf, finer ornamental turf for a neater finish, and shade-tolerant blends for areas with limited sun. We’ll help you choose based on foot traffic, pets, soil condition and how much maintenance you want. If you’re also improving levels or adding drainage, we’ll recommend the best turf to establish quickly and stay resilient.
