Artificial grass

Artificial grass that looks right and drains well

Artificial lawns across Bradford, laid on a proper stone base so they stay flat, drain in heavy rain and still look good years later. No mowing, no mud, no bald patches.

How we lay it

Four steps to a lawn that lasts

The grass is the easy bit. Everything that matters happens before it is unrolled.

Step 1

Take it back

Old turf, roots and soft topsoil removed. Anything organic left behind rots and sinks, and the lawn goes lumpy with it.

Step 2

Stone and compact

A layer of crushed stone spread and compacted. It lets rain through and gives the surface something firm to sit on.

Step 3

Level it off

A fine layer of sand or dust screeded dead level. Any hump or hollow here will show through the finished lawn.

Step 4

Fit and finish

Grass unrolled, joins taped and glued, edges fixed, then kiln-dried sand brushed in to weight it down and stand the fibres up.

Finishing a new build garden

New build gardens often come with compacted builder’s spoil under a thin layer of soil, so real grass struggles and water sits on top. Artificial grass on a stone base solves both at once and gives you a finished lawn from day one.

  • Poor builder’s soil dug out, not covered over
  • Free-draining stone base compacted in layers
  • Gravel or pebble strips along the fences
  • Edges fixed so they never curl up
  • Grass run straight up to the patio edge

Long gardens

Long, narrow and shaded gardens

Terrace and semi gardens are often long and thin with high fences either side, which means not much sun and a lot of foot traffic down the same line. Real turf wears through. Artificial grass stays green and level, and a row of stepping stones gives you a path without breaking up the lawn.

  • Handles shade from fences, trees and neighbouring houses
  • Stepping stones set flush into the grass
  • One piece where possible, joins hidden where not
  • Pile laid in one direction for an even colour
  • Sand infill brushed through to keep it upright

Play areas

Play spaces and busy areas

Where children or lots of people use a space every day, grass has to cope with constant wear and dry quickly. We build a deeper base for heavy use and finish the edges flush with safety surfaces and paving so nothing trips anyone up.

  • Deeper base for heavy daily use
  • Flush joins to safety surfacing and paths
  • Manholes and covers left accessible
  • Fixed securely along fences and buildings
  • Laid with a fall so water clears quickly

Edges

The edges make or break it

The quickest way to spot cheap artificial grass is at the edges: lifting against a fence, a gap by the paving, a visible join. We fix every edge to something solid and trim it tight so it looks like it grew there.

  • Tight against paving with no step or lip
  • Timber or steel edging where there is nothing to fix to
  • Cut neatly around beds, trees and posts
  • Joins glued on tape, not just pinned
  • Final brush to lift the pile after fitting

Design it properly

A lawn looks better with something to frame it.

Paths, borders and gravel edges turn a rectangle of grass into a garden. We can plan the planting and paving around the lawn so the whole space hangs together.
