At As Good As Grass, we completed a full domestic garden transformation in Fulwood, Preston, turning an overgrown, unusable outdoor space into a clean, practical, and welcoming area the whole family can enjoy.
The project combined a premium artificial grass installation with new porcelain tiling and fencing, delivering a low-maintenance solution that looks great all year round – even with limited time for upkeep.
This residential installation covered approximately 60sqm in total. The customer needed a fast turnaround due to time constraints and wanted a space that was safe for children, visually clean, and easy to maintain.
Our team carried out full groundworks, artificial grass installation, patio construction, and fencing – managing the project from dig-out to final finish.
Before work began, the garden was overgrown, dull, and largely unusable. Weeds had taken over the space, maintenance had become unmanageable, and the area no longer felt welcoming or functional for family use.
The client wanted a complete reset – removing the mess, improving drainage, and creating a layout that worked for both play and relaxation, all within a tight timeframe.
We carried out a full excavation and rebuild of the garden, installing a durable sub-base before laying artificial grass, porcelain tiles, and new fencing for a clean, modern finish.
Here’s what we delivered:
✅ 75mm excavation across the grass area
✅ Geotextile membrane installed to prevent weed growth
✅ MOT Type 1 sub-base fully compacted for long-term stability
✅ 40mm artificial grass installed for a soft, family-friendly surface
✅ No shockpad required due to domestic use and stable base
✅ Porcelain patio installation with 150–200mm dig-out and reinforced base
✅ SBR bonding applied to ensure correct adhesion between porcelain tiles and concrete
✅ New fencing installed with fresh posts and a modern cladding-style finish
✅ Work completed in 1–2 weeks, despite wet weather conditions
The finished garden is now a bright, low-maintenance, and fully usable outdoor space. The artificial grass provides a clean, mud-free surface for children, while the porcelain patio creates a smart area for seating and entertaining.
✅ 60sqm transformed into a practical family garden
✅ No mowing, no weeds, no ongoing maintenance stress
✅ Clean joins and precise finishing throughout
✅ Designed to stay usable all year round
