If your lawn has become patchy, bumpy or waterlogged, new turf can change the whole feel of your garden. Our team installs fresh lawns across SW15, from West Putney gardens to properties near Putney Bridge and the River Thames towpath. We focus on the groundwork first, so the turf roots quickly and stays level. The result is a lawn that looks sharp immediately and improves week by week.
Putney’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, plus newer riverside apartments, often means compact rear gardens, side returns and shared access routes. In East Putney and Roehampton, we regularly work around established borders, patios and mature trees where light and root competition matter. We plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption and keep pathways protected. Your lawn is set out to suit how you actually use the space—kids, pets, entertaining or a calm green outlook.
Our turfing process covers lawn preparation, premium turf supply, turf laying and precise lawn levelling, with drainage installation where needed. We set correct falls, consolidate the base properly and lay turf tightly for a seamless finish. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, reliable scheduling and practical aftercare advice that prevents common failures. You also benefit from our 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
We’re used to the practicalities of turfing in London Borough of Wandsworth, including controlled parking zones and timed deliveries on busier roads near Putney High Street. Putney Heath and nearby tree cover can create shade and leaf litter, so we factor in turf choice and soil improvement to support healthy growth. Many SW15 gardens have clay-heavy ground, so we often add drainage layers and adjust levels to prevent standing water. Access can be tight in period terraces, so we use protective boards and keep the site clean.

For turfing putney area projects, expect £15–£25 per square metre depending on preparation needs and turf type. Typical total costs are around £800–£2,500 for most SW15 gardens, with price influenced by access, waste removal, levelling work and whether drainage is required. We’ll measure up, check the existing ground and provide a clear breakdown so you can compare like-for-like.
Most turfing jobs in Putney take 1–2 days. Day one is usually excavation or clearance, base preparation, levelling and any drainage installation; turf laying often follows the same day or next morning. Timescales vary with lawn size, how compacted the existing soil is, and access for removing spoil and bringing in topsoil and turf. Wet weather can also affect ground preparation and finishing.
In most cases, turfing in London Borough of Wandsworth doesn’t require planning permission because it’s standard garden maintenance and improvement. However, restrictions can apply if you’re altering levels significantly, changing drainage that affects neighbouring properties, or working in a conservation area or on a listed building. We’ll flag any potential issues early, advise on best practice for runoff, and help you understand when it’s sensible to check with the council.
Yes. Our installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including correct preparation, levels and turf laying standards. It’s designed to protect you against issues caused by installation faults rather than normal seasonal changes. Because turf is a living product, ongoing health depends on watering, mowing and feeding—so we provide straightforward aftercare guidance. If you have concerns during establishment, we’ll advise promptly to keep the lawn on track.
We can supply a range of premium turf options, including hard-wearing family lawns, finer ornamental turf, and shade-tolerant mixes for gardens near mature trees or taller buildings. If your garden suffers from puddling, we can combine turfing with lawn levelling and drainage installation. We’ll also advise on edging details, transitions to patios, and soil improvement for better long-term colour and density. The right choice depends on light, foot traffic and maintenance preference.
