Artificial Grass Installation

Every installation starts with the groundwork. Depending on the site, this may include excavation, compaction, drainage preparation and the construction of a stable, level base. The turf is then fitted, joined and edged for a clean, secure finish.

Backyard Renovations

Complete reworks of outdoor spaces, from removing existing surfaces to rebuilding the area as a practical, finished environment. We coordinate the preparation, paving, retaining, drainage, surfacing and finishing as one considered project.

FAQ

Local answers. Properly considered.

Practical answers for artificial grass and backyard projects across the Garden Route.

01How long does an artificial grass installation take?

Most residential installations take one to two days. Larger projects or those requiring significant ground preparation may take longer. We assess every site before quoting so you get an accurate timeline upfront.

02Do you handle the ground preparation yourselves?

Yes. We handle the full scope — excavation, compaction, drainage, levelling and base construction — before any turf is laid. Most artificial grass problems come from poor groundwork, not the turf itself.

03What areas do you serve?

We install artificial grass and complete backyard renovations across Knysna, Plettenberg Bay, George, Sedgefield, Wilderness and Mossel Bay.

04How much does artificial grass installation cost in the Garden Route?

Cost depends on the area size, ground conditions, preparation required and the grass profile selected. We provide a site-specific quote after assessing the project. Contact us for a free quote.

05Can artificial grass be installed on a slope?

Yes. Sloped sites require careful base preparation and drainage planning. We have installed artificial grass on a wide range of slopes across the Garden Route and factor the site gradient into every quote.

06How long does artificial grass last?

With correct installation and basic maintenance, most of our landscape profiles last between 8 and 15 years depending on traffic levels and conditions.

07Do you install artificial grass around swimming pools?

Yes. Pool surrounds are one of our most common residential projects. We specify a suitable profile and drainage system for the wet environment.

08Can artificial grass be installed on a roof terrace or balcony?

Yes, provided the surface can handle the load and drainage is correctly managed. We assess each site individually.
