Durham packs a cathedral city, a university and a ring of former pit villages into a small area. Gardens range from steep little yards on the streets around the peninsula to open front lawns on the big estates north of the centre.
Durham gardens we're set up for
-
Landlords and letting agents
Rented houses near the centre that need a tired lawn replaced between tenancies.
-
Families on the estates
Worn front and back lawns lifted and relaid on properly prepared ground.
-
New homeowners
New-build gardens where the builder's turf never took, sorted from the ground up.
-
Village gardens
Larger plots in the villages around the city, often with room for a big lawn.
Across the city
Around the peninsula
The streets around the centre climb steeply from the river, and gardens follow the slope: small, stepped and often walled. Many houses here are let to students. Getting turf and topsoil in can mean carrying everything up steps or through the house, so a note about the route in helps us plan and price fairly.
Newton Hall and the northern estates
Newton Hall is one of the largest housing estates in the county, built mainly in the 1960s and 70s, and many of its front gardens are open to the street. Replacing one of those lawns means a clean, straight edge where yours meets next door's and levels that match the pavement.
Villages around the city
Brandon, Ushaw Moor, Bearpark, Sherburn, Bowburn and the other former mining villages have terraced rows, later estates and new developments side by side. Gardens are often bigger than in the city and more exposed, so a well-prepared base and steady watering through the first weeks make the biggest difference.
For landlords: a lawn between tenancies
- Tell us how we'll get in and who'll be there on the day
- Plan ahead if you want the work done in the gap between tenancies
- Ask for the old lawn to be lifted and taken away, so no waste is left behind
- Pass our aftercare guide to whoever is living there, as new turf needs watering
- Our turf laying terms cover booking and deposits
Common questions
Can you turf a garden at a student house?
Yes. Landlords often want a tired lawn replaced while the house is between tenants. Tell us when it's empty and how we get in.
Our garden is up a flight of steps. Is that OK?
Yes. Turf, topsoil and waste are carried by hand where there's no level route. Steps add to the work, so mention them on the form.
Do you work in the villages around Durham?
Yes, including Brandon, Ushaw Moor, Bearpark, Sherburn, Bowburn and Langley Moor.
