If your lawn is patchy, muddy or tired, new turf gives an instant upgrade. We carry out turfing across SW16, including homes near Norbury station and along Norbury High Street. From removing old grass to fine levelling, we set the base properly so the lawn roots in evenly. The result is a clean, usable garden you can enjoy straight away.
Norbury’s mix of Edwardian houses, 1930s semis and Victorian conversions often comes with compact rear gardens and side access. That means materials need to be moved efficiently and waste removed neatly, without disrupting neighbours. We’re used to working around existing patios, steps and garden borders common in Thornton Heath and Streatham Vale. Every lawn is measured and planned to minimise joins and keep the finish consistent.
Our process starts with lawn preparation: clearing, rotavating, improving the soil profile and setting correct levels. Where needed, we include drainage installation to prevent waterlogging and soft spots. We lay premium turf carefully, roll it in, and provide clear aftercare advice on watering and mowing. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, tidy workmanship and a finish that lasts.
We know the turfing Norbury area well, including access and parking realities around Pollards Hill and Norbury Park. Gardens here can suffer from compacted soil and uneven levels, especially after building work or heavy foot traffic. We adapt with the right soil improvements, careful grading and, where required, drainage runs to move water away from problem spots. For turfing in London Borough of Croydon, we also plan waste removal and deliveries to keep the job smooth and compliant.

For turfing in Norbury, expect around £15–£25 per square metre depending on turf grade and the amount of groundwork required. Typical total costs are often £800–£2,500 for an average front or back garden. Prices can rise where old lawns need removing, levels need correcting, or drainage is added.

Most turfing jobs take 1–2 days, with day one focused on preparation and levelling and day two for laying and final finishing. Smaller lawns can be completed in a single day if access is good and the ground is already in reasonable condition. Timescales can extend if we’re removing lots of old turf, importing topsoil, or installing drainage to fix persistent wet areas.
Turfing is usually permitted and doesn’t require planning permission in the London Borough of Croydon, as it’s a like-for-like garden improvement. However, rules can come into play if you’re changing ground levels significantly, altering drainage routes, or working near protected trees or shared boundaries. If any permissions or notifications are needed, we’ll flag them early and help you understand what applies before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as poor levelling, inadequate base preparation, or laying defects that cause failure when the lawn has been cared for correctly. Living turf itself is affected by weather, watering and foot traffic, so we also give clear aftercare guidance to support healthy establishment. If you have concerns during the settling period, we’ll advise promptly.
We can supply premium turf suited to how you use the garden, from hard-wearing family lawns to finer ornamental finishes. Options may include durable rye-based turf for play areas, shade-tolerant choices for gardens with taller fences, and improved topsoil blends for better rooting. We’ll help you choose based on sunlight, drainage and expected wear, then match the installation method to achieve a clean, even result.
