Turf and Artificial Grass
What affects scope
- Lawn size and shape
- How much ground has to be dug out and levelled
- The grass you choose
- Edging, and access for taking soil away
What to send first
- Whether you want artificial grass or real turf
- How the lawn gets used: children, dogs, seating
- How barrows can get into the garden
Good fit when
- The lawn is patchy, boggy or worn out
- You want a lawn without the mowing
- Children or dogs use the garden every day
If the lawn stays wet because of the ground underneath, the drainage may need sorting first as part of Landscaping.
Artificial grass is a big part of what Wilsonjones Landscapes does, from small courtyards to whole gardens. An install starts with digging out the old lawn and soil, then laying a compacted stone base and a fine levelling layer so the surface is flat and drains. A weed membrane goes down, then the grass is rolled out, joined, cut neatly to the edges and fixed around the border so it does not lift.
A small lawn can often be done in a day. If you would rather have a real lawn, the ground is cleared, levelled and prepared before fresh turf goes down. Afterwards Steve explains how to look after it, whether that is brushing artificial grass to keep the pile up or watering new turf until it roots.
Artificial grass suits families with young children and dogs, because it stays usable after rain and does not turn to mud.
Values
Design and build in one team
The layout, the groundworks, the hard landscaping and the planting are handled by the same people, so the finished garden matches the plan rather than a subcontractor's interpretation of it.
Based in Wilmslow
We work across Cheshire and Greater Manchester, from Wilmslow, Alderley Edge and Knutsford to Bramhall, Hale and Altrincham.

What our customers say
“Steve and his team did an outstanding job designing and installing a new patio for us. The project was extensive, encompassing the entire property, including a courtyard, living area, pathways, and patios that wrap around the house. Throughout the project, Steve and his team demonstrated a high level of professionalism, delivering exceptional workmanship at a fair and competitive price. Communication was excellent from start to finish, ensuring we were always informed and confident about the progress of the work. Steve has since returned to complete additional landscaping work for us, further reinforcing the quality of his service and commitment to customer satisfaction. I would highly recommend Steve and his team to anyone considering a landscaping or patio project. Their design expertise, practical knowledge, and ability to provide creative inspiration, combined with their attention to detail and reliability, make them a pleasure to work with from concept through to completion.
