Artificial Grass in East Grinstead
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 East Grinstead, that covers Ashurst Wood, Forest Row, Dormans Park, West Hoathly, Felbridge, Turners Hill, Imberhorne. East Grinstead's High Street is one of the best-preserved medieval streets in Sussex, lined with timber-framed and Georgian-fronted buildings, while the wider town includes Victorian terraces, 20th-century suburbs and newer estates. The town sits close to Ashdown Forest and the Weald countryside that gives the region its name.

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 building in East Grinstead town centre?
Listed buildings require listed building consent for alterations that affect their character, in addition to any planning permission needed. We assess this on a case-by-case basis and can advise on the likely process.
