A well-laid lawn is the foundation of almost every great garden. It provides the green space that ties all other planting and landscaping together, creates usable outdoor space for families, and gives any property an immediate sense of care and kerb appeal. At Pitney Fence & Landscape, we provide professional turfing and lawn installation services across Somerset, supplying and laying premium cultivated turf for domestic gardens, commercial sites, and rural properties.
We use only high-quality turf from reputable British growers — hard-wearing, fine-bladed cultivated grass that establishes quickly and provides a consistently dense, green result. The quality of the turf itself matters, but it accounts for only part of the final result. The preparation of the ground beneath is what separates a lawn that lasts for decades from one that becomes thin, patchy, or waterlogged within a season or two.
Our turfing process starts with full ground preparation. We excavate to the correct depth, remove all weeds and debris, and assess the existing soil. Where the soil is poor — which is common across much of Somerset, particularly on sites with heavy clay or residual rubble — we improve it with topsoil and sharp sand to create a friable, free-draining growing medium. We then rotovate and level the area carefully, creating a firm but not compacted surface with accurate falls to prevent pooling.
Once the ground preparation is complete, turf is laid immediately to prevent the prepared surface from drying out. We butt the rolls tightly, stagger the joints in a brick-bond pattern, and work from boards to avoid compacting the freshly laid surface. After laying, we water the turf in thoroughly and provide clear aftercare advice on watering and mowing schedules to ensure strong establishment.
We take on lawn projects of all sizes — from small rear gardens to large open areas and sports surfaces. We also work on sloped lawns, awkward-shaped plots, and sites that require retaining edges or border preparation as part of the overall project.
We cover all of Somerset including Somerton, Langport, Street, Glastonbury, Yeovil, Taunton, Bridgwater, and all surrounding villages and rural areas.
