If your garden has turned patchy, compacted or uneven, fresh turf can transform it in a weekend. We install new lawns across SW16 and SW2, from Streatham Hill gardens to family plots near Streatham Common. Expect clean edges, smooth levels and turf that beds in properly. Our team works efficiently and keeps disruption to a minimum.
Streatham’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats and modern apartments often means varied garden sizes and access routes. Rear gardens off Streatham High Road can be narrow to reach, so we plan deliveries and barrow runs carefully. We also see plenty of shaded lawns and tired soil where older planting has depleted nutrients. Our turfing approach is tailored to the property and how you use the space.
We start with proper lawn preparation: removing old turf, improving the soil profile and setting accurate levels. Where needed, we add drainage installation to prevent winter waterlogging and summer compaction. Premium turf is laid tightly, rolled and watered in, with clear aftercare advice for the first crucial weeks. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, honest guidance and a finish that lasts.
We’re on site in around 10 minutes from Norbury, so scheduling and follow-up are straightforward.

For turfing in London Borough of Lambeth, we work neatly and keep waste removal and footpath access compliant.

Most turfing projects in Streatham fall between £15–£25 per square metre, depending on preparation requirements and turf choice. Typical total costs are around £800–£2,500 for many gardens, with larger plots or heavy groundworks higher. Prices can increase if you need old lawn removal, significant levelling, extra topsoil, or drainage to tackle persistent waterlogging.
Most turf installations take 1–2 days from strip-out to final roll, assuming access is reasonable and the weather is workable. Smaller lawns can be completed in a day, while larger gardens or those needing extensive levelling, soil improvement or drainage may take longer. Delivery timing, narrow side access, and how much spoil needs removing can also affect the schedule.
