Our story
Twenty-two years, one job done right.
We Lay Lawn Turf is James and his small, hands-on team, based at Fox Lane in Reigate and working right across Surrey and the neighbouring counties. Over 22 years, turf laying is the one thing we've focused on — not a bolt-on to a general landscaping business, but the trade we've spent two decades getting right.
That focus shows in the details other people skip. The ground preparation that decides whether a lawn thrives or fails. The quality of the turf, sourced fresh from trusted UK growers. And the aftercare advice that so many of our customers mention — great guidance on maintaining the lawn going forward, and James returning to carry out the crucial first cut himself.
Most jobs are James and Lee on the tools — the same two who quote your work turn up to lay it, taking pride in the finish even on a “changeable and challenging day”, as one review puts it. We're deliberately small, fully insured, and we'd rather give you a fair, competitive quote and a lawn that lasts than chase volume. Rated five stars, eighty-three times over, across Surrey.
