Artificial grass: further for the right job

Artificial grass is our main focus: backyards, courtyards, side passages, pool surrounds, putting greens and turf over concrete. It’s also the service we’ll happily travel beyond Melbourne for, when the job is right. Send photos, a rough size and your suburb or town, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it suits.

Every install is built on a properly dug-out and compacted base, and old lawn and soil removal is included in the quote whenever base preparation is needed.

How site visits and travel work

  1. Send photos first. A few photos, your suburb and a rough size are enough to start.
  2. We reply within 12 business hours, with any questions and the next step.
  3. Free measure and quote. If the job needs a closer look, we’ll book a free measure to check access, levels and drainage, then send a written quote.
  4. Owner on site. Eren is on site from the first dig to handover.

Time on site: a mid-size job, such as artificial grass or landscaping at a home, typically takes 2 to 4 days. Your quote says how long your job will take, so you can plan around it.

Before a site visit

  • Clear a path to the area so we can measure the full length and width.
  • Let us know about dogs on site, locked gates or tricky parking in your street.
  • Think about where water sits after rain. Low spots and soggy corners shape the quote.

Local rules worth knowing

A few rules are worth checking before any work starts, and some change from council to council:

  • Nature strips. Planning artificial grass out the front? Check with your council before you plan anything past your front boundary. Hume, Darebin and Whittlesea list artificial turf as not allowed on nature strips, and Merri-bek’s guidelines say council doesn’t support it. Our nature strip rules guide links to each council’s page.
  • Green bins. What goes in your green or FOGO bin, and how big branches can be, differs by council. See what can go in your green waste bin.
  • Mowing hours. These are the same statewide. EPA Victoria’s residential noise rules don’t allow mowers and other grass-cutting tools before 7 am or after 8 pm on weekdays. On weekends and public holidays, the limits are before 9 am and after 8 pm.

Homes and businesses

We work for homeowners and businesses, with the same free measure and written quote for both. Businesses we’ve worked with include Snap Fitness (Port Melbourne), Right2Drive and Shoe Grab.
