Lawn Turfing and Artificial Grass for Martley Gardens
A big lawn is the heart of many village gardens, and in Martley it often runs between mature trees and borders. Over time it can turn patchy, mossy or uneven, and a lawn of that size is a lot of ground to put right with a bag of seed and a free weekend.
We lay natural turf and artificial grass and renovate tired lawns for Martley and nearby Bromyard, Hallow, Broadheath and Lower Broadheath. Preparation, levelling and laying are done by our own team, because the ground beneath a lawn decides how well it lasts. Whether you want a complete new lawn or a repair to the worst patches, we will suggest the most sensible route.
Natural turf across a large area
Fresh turf gives an established lawn quickly, but the preparation decides whether it thrives. We clear the old surface, level the ground, deal with any lumps and hollows and lay the rolls tight with staggered joints. Large lawns also benefit from being done in sections, which keeps the garden usable while work goes on.
Timing and aftercare matter on a big lawn. New turf needs regular watering until the roots take hold, and a large area can take longer to settle than a small town lawn. We explain what to do in the first weeks, including when to give it the first cut and how short to go.
- Strip and level an old, patchy lawn
- Fresh natural turf for a quick, even finish
- Renovation and patch repairs where the base is sound
- Artificial grass for small, shaded or heavily used spots
Where artificial grass makes sense
Few people want plastic across an entire country garden, and that is rarely the right answer. But under dense trees, beside a seating area or near the back door, artificial grass can stay green where natural turf struggles, and it removes the mowing from the corners that are hardest to reach. Edges are worth finishing properly too, with a clean line against beds and paths that makes mowing quicker and keeps the lawn looking tended through the season.
Mature planting casts shade and drops leaves, so we talk through aftercare as well as installation. If you would like to see how a mixed lawn could work, the free site visit lets us measure up and suggest a sensible plan. We also look at where water collects, since soggy corners are a common reason for moss.

Turfing & Lawns in Martley: common questions
Can a large Martley lawn be turfed in stages?
Yes. Splitting the lawn into sections spreads the work and keeps part of the garden usable, and it suits older gardens where other jobs are planned alongside. Each section is prepared and laid fully before we move on.
Why does my lawn under mature trees keep going patchy?
Shade, root competition and fallen leaves all weaken grass. Renovation, a different grass mix or a hard-wearing alternative in the worst spots usually helps, and we can advise on site once we see the conditions. If the ground is very poor, we may suggest improving the soil or levelling first, instead of laying over the problem.
