Artificial Grass and Lawn Turfing in Fernhill Heath
Lawns in a family village take a beating. Football goals, trampolines, dogs and paddling pools leave bare patches by midsummer, and the first wet spell turns them to mud. Artificial grass, new turf and lawn repairs are all common requests.
We lay natural turf, install artificial grass and renovate existing lawns across Fernhill Heath, Claines, Crowle, Droitwich Spa and Worcester, preparing the ground properly in each case.
Artificial grass or natural turf for a busy garden
Artificial grass gives a green, mud-free surface all year and needs no mowing, which suits households with young children or dogs. It also keeps shoes and paws clean after rain, which is a real help in a busy hallway. It is laid on a compacted stone base with a weed membrane, so the groundwork matters just as much as with real turf.
Natural turf is softer underfoot, cools in warm weather and suits owners who enjoy gardening. Good preparation and early watering decide whether it thrives. A new lawn is also a chance to fix the levels, so that the mower no longer scalps the high spots.
- Artificial grass for play areas and dog runs
- New turf for a traditional lawn
- Levelling and patch repair for worn grass
- Neat edging against borders and paths
Fixing a lawn you already have
Not every lawn needs replacing. Compacted ground, moss and uneven patches can often be sorted by levelling low spots, reseeding or inserting fresh turf in the worst places, which is a smaller job than starting again. This is often the sensible route where the lawn is mostly healthy but worn in a few places.
Where only the high-traffic corner has failed, a split approach can work well: artificial grass where the children play and natural lawn elsewhere. The two surfaces are edged so the join looks deliberate. We can look at the options on a free site visit.

Turfing & Lawns in Fernhill Heath: common questions
Is artificial grass suitable for dogs?
It can be, with the right product and installation. A free-draining base allows urine to pass through, and regular rinsing and brushing keep it fresh. Families with young children often choose the same product for the play area.
When is the best time to lay a new lawn?
Early autumn and spring tend to suit natural turf, as the weather is milder and damp. Artificial grass can be installed at most times of year, although very wet or frozen ground may delay groundwork. We will tell you what is realistic when we see the garden.
