Turf Laying in Worthing
Natural turf laying is the supply and installation of pre-grown grass turf onto prepared, cultivated soil to create a new lawn, distinct from the ongoing mowing and feeding that established lawns need afterwards.
In Worthing, that covers Tarring, Broadwater, Durrington, Goring-by-Sea, Findon Valley, Heene. Worthing is a seafront town with a strong Edwardian and interwar residential character, notable Art Deco buildings along the seafront, and a wide range of housing types stretching inland towards the South Downs.

FAQs
Turf Laying in Worthing: FAQs
Do you provide turf laying across all of Worthing?
Yes, we cover the BN11, BN12, BN13 and BN14 postcode areas in full, including Tarring, Broadwater, Durrington, Goring-by-Sea, Findon Valley, Heene.
What's the difference between this and your gardening service?
This service is the one-off installation of a brand-new lawn — preparing the ground and laying turf. Our gardening service covers the ongoing mowing, feeding and seasonal maintenance an established lawn needs afterwards; most customers move on to that once the new turf has rooted in.
How soon can I walk on new turf?
Light use is usually possible after two to three weeks, once the roots have knitted into the soil beneath, but it's best to keep heavy footfall off the area until it feels firm underfoot rather than to a fixed date.
Are Worthing's seafront buildings protected?
Many of the town's notable Art Deco and Edwardian seafront buildings are listed or within conservation areas, which affects what external changes can be made without consent. We check this for individual properties.
