Artificial Grass in Brighton and Hove
Artificial grass is a synthetic turf surface laid over a prepared, permeable sub-base to provide a consistent green lawn appearance year-round without the mowing, feeding or watering that natural turf requires.
In Brighton and Hove, that covers Kemp Town, Hove, Preston Park, Hanover, Seven Dials, Fiveways, Patcham, Portslade. Brighton and Hove is known for its Regency architecture, extensive Victorian terraced housing, and later 20th-century development, all within a compact coastal city where many properties are in conservation areas and a significant number are listed.

Property styles in Brighton and Hove
Regency squares and terraces are concentrated around Brunswick, Kemp Town and the seafront, with dense Victorian terraced housing across much of the wider city, and later suburban housing further from the centre. Basement conversions, loft conversions and rear extensions are common project types on the terraced stock, subject to conservation area and party wall considerations.
Planning considerations
Brighton & Hove City Council is the local planning authority. The city has one of the highest concentrations of conservation areas of any local authority in the South East, and many properties are listed, particularly in the Regency squares. Basement work also requires careful consideration of structural and drainage issues in a dense urban setting.

FAQs
Artificial Grass in Brighton and Hove: FAQs
Do you provide artificial grass across all of Brighton and Hove?
Yes, we cover the BN1, BN2 and BN3 postcode areas in full, including Kemp Town, Hove, Preston Park, Hanover, Seven Dials, Fiveways, Patcham, Portslade.
How long does artificial grass last?
Good-quality artificial grass, properly installed on a well-prepared base, typically lasts in the region of 10 to 15 years before the pile noticeably flattens or fades, though this depends on footfall, sun exposure and the product specification.
Does artificial grass need any maintenance?
It needs far less than a natural lawn — no mowing, feeding or watering — but an occasional brush to lift the pile and a rinse to clear debris and pet waste keeps it looking and draining well.
Can I extend a listed Regency property in Brighton?
Alterations to listed buildings require listed building consent in addition to any planning permission, and the historic character of Regency terraces means proposals are considered carefully. We assess feasibility on a case-by-case basis.
