West of Gateshead, the land rises from the Tyne to Whickham's hilltop estates and out to Ryton and the Derwent valley. Gardens get bigger and hillier the further out you go.

Whickham's estates

Whickham is largely made up of private estates from the 1960s and 70s, with plenty of bungalows and semis, open front lawns and back gardens that often slope. Lawns of that age tend to be thin, mossy or uneven, and are well suited to replacement.

Blaydon and Winlaton

Terraces and semis in Blaydon and the hillside streets of Winlaton mean smaller gardens and steeper ground. Access through a side passage or back lane is common.

Ryton and Rowlands Gill

Ryton has larger gardens and some older village homes, while Rowlands Gill sits in the wooded Derwent valley, where shade and damp need thinking about before a new lawn goes down. See turf laying for shady gardens.

Worth mentioning when you ask for a quote

  • Whether the garden slopes, and roughly how steeply

Common questions

Do you cover Rowlands Gill?

Yes, along with Whickham, Blaydon, Ryton and the rest of west Gateshead.

Can you turf a bungalow garden on a slope?

Yes. Gentle slopes are turfed across the fall and pegged if needed.
