Planned Around Your Block.
Preston lawns earn their keep. These are family gardens on solid northern blocks, where the grass takes the wear of kids, pets and weekends outside and still has to look right from the street. Many of the homes here are interwar bungalows on generous plots, so there is genuine lawn to lay flat and even rather than a narrow strip to patch around. Older gardens often sit on settled soil that compacts underfoot and holds water after rain, which means the base matters more than the blade on top. We rebuild that base to drain and feed the grass, pick a hard wearing variety suited to a busy backyard and full northern sun, and lay it level from fence to fence. Where a section sits in deep shade or takes such constant traffic that nothing natural survives, we lay artificial turf that stays green all year with no mowing. Close to High Street and the Preston Market, every metre of lawn has to perform, not just look good on day one.
