A well-installed artificial lawn ends the mowing, the mud and the patchy grass for good — but only if the groundwork beneath it is done properly. We connect homeowners across Farnham, Godalming, Haslemere and West Surrey with an insured local installer who prepares a proper, free-draining base, not just grass rolled over the old lawn.
Enquiries go to a selected local installer who visits, discusses the garden, and gives you a clear written quote. We are not a national franchise — you deal with a local installer who stands behind the work.
Why the base matters most
The difference between an artificial lawn that stays flat and drains for twenty years and one that dips, puddles and wrinkles within a couple of seasons is what you cannot see: the base. A proper installation removes the old lawn, lays and compacts a free-draining aggregate base, fits the right membranes and edgings, then joins and secures the grass so it stays put and drains freely.

Local knowledge
Farnham and the West Surrey towns have everything from small courtyard gardens to large family plots, and ground conditions vary from free-draining sandy soils to heavier clay. That directly affects the base and drainage a lawn needs, which is why a site visit — not a phone estimate — is the right way to price an installation here.

Frequently asked questions
How much does artificial grass cost in Farnham?
Most installations fall between £60 and £110 per square metre depending on the grass chosen, the groundwork needed and access. A typical garden runs from around £2,000 to £6,000. A site visit is the only way to get a firm figure.
Does artificial grass drain properly?
Yes, when installed correctly. A proper installation lays the grass on a compacted, free-draining aggregate base with the right membranes, so rainwater drains straight through rather than pooling.
Is it good for dogs and children?
Yes — quality artificial grass is hard-wearing, non-toxic and easy to clean, which makes it popular for pet lawns and play areas. The installer can recommend a suitable grade and infill.
How long does artificial grass last?
A good-quality grass, properly installed, typically lasts 15 to 20 years with minimal maintenance — no mowing, no mud, and just an occasional brush and rinse.
