Project Overview
This project was completed for a customer at a new build property in Widnes, Cheshire. The homeowner wanted to avoid the constant maintenance of a natural lawn and spend more time enjoying the garden with family and grandchildren.
Work Completed
We removed the need for ongoing mowing and regular lawn repair by installing a high-quality artificial grass surface designed for everyday family use. The installation focused on creating a neat, practical finish with reliable levels and a tidy edge detail across the full garden area.
Ground preparation and levelling were carried out carefully so the new lawn would remain stable, comfortable underfoot and visually consistent through all seasons. The final result gave the customer exactly what they wanted: a clean, attractive outdoor space with minimal upkeep and no weekly grass worries.
Why New-Build Properties Benefit from Artificial Grass
At new-build properties like this Widnes home, the soil is often freshly worked and inconsistent in level and compaction. Traditional grass struggles to establish evenly and requires years of careful maintenance to mature. Artificial grass provides an immediate solution that works perfectly from day one. There are no bare patches, no patchy growth, and no waiting for the lawn to become established.
Installation and Base Preparation
We assessed the existing ground and installed a comprehensive sub-base using Type 1 aggregate material, which was compacted to provide stable, level support. A professional weed-suppression membrane was laid over the compacted base to prevent any weeds or moss from emerging beneath the grass. The membrane also allows water to drain freely while keeping soil particles contained, creating an ideal growing foundation.
The Finished Lawn
The artificial grass was installed with meticulous attention to detail. Seams were carefully joined and sealed with tape and adhesive for a seamless finish. Perimeter edges were trimmed and finished to create clean, tidy boundaries around the garden's borders. The result is a pristine, maintenance-free lawn that looks fresh and green every single day.
Family-Friendly and Practical
This customer now enjoys a garden perfect for family use without the burden of weekend mowing, watering during dry spells, or dealing with muddy patches after rain. Grandchildren can play safely on a clean, consistent surface. The installation has eliminated one regular household chore whilst adding real value and usability to the property.
