Your garden, considered

Preparation makes the lawn

New turf only thrives on good ground. We remove the old lawn and weeds, cultivate and improve the soil, then level and firm it before laying.

We lay quality turf with tight joints, roll it and explain watering so it roots quickly.

In South Croydon, many lawns suffer from clay and poor drainage; we improve the soil before turfing.
