Keeping a perfect lawn in the UK can feel like a full-time job—mowing, watering, weeding, and dealing with muddy patches. That’s why many homeowners in Durham are choosing artificial grass installation in Durham as a practical and low-maintenance solution.

At Landscapers Durham, we specialise in transforming tired, patchy lawns into lush green spaces that stay perfect all year round, with no mud, mess, or mowing.

What Is Artificial Grass Installation?

Artificial grass installation involves laying high-quality synthetic turf in place of natural grass. It mimics the appearance and texture of real grass but without the usual upkeep.

It’s perfect for:

• Residential lawns and gardens

• Family play areas

• Pet-friendly spaces

• Balconies, terraces, or rooftops

• Commercial spaces and schools

Whether you’re tired of constant garden maintenance or want a pet-safe, durable lawn, artificial grass is a brilliant alternative.

Many Durham homeowners choose artificial grass for its convenience and long-lasting appeal.

Our Artificial Grass Installation Process

At Landscapers Durham, we follow a tried-and-tested process to ensure a flawless, long-lasting result:

1. Free Site Survey

We visit your property to assess the area, take measurements, and discuss your preferences.

2. Ground Preparation

We remove existing turf, level the ground, and install a weed membrane to stop future growth.

3. Base Layer Installation

We lay a strong foundation using MOT Type 1 hardcore and sharp sand for drainage and stability.

4. Turf Laying

Your chosen artificial grass is carefully rolled out, shaped, and fixed using nails or adhesive.

5. Finishing Touches

We brush up the pile, infill with kiln-dried sand (if required), and tidy the area to ensure a pristine finish.

How Long Does It Take?

A typical garden artificial grass installation in Durham takes 1–2 days, depending on:

• Garden size and access

• Ground conditions

• Weather and drainage needs

Smaller spaces like patios or balconies can often be completed within a single day.

Is Artificial Grass Worth the Investment?

Absolutely. While the upfront cost is higher than seeding or turfing with natural grass, the long-term savings are significant. You’ll save on:

• Lawn maintenance services

• Water bills

• Fertilisers, weedkillers, and pest treatments

• Equipment like mowers and strimmers

Artificial turf also adds value and kerb appeal to your property—something Durham homeowners appreciate in a competitive housing market.
