Best Local Turf Company for Homes and Businesses
As a family-run turf company that locals have trusted for years, we bring together everything you need in one place. Our turf supply service means fresh, farm-cut grass ready whenever your project calls for it, from small home lawns to large commercial rollouts. If you’d rather leave the hard work to the experts, our turf installation crews handle everything from site prep to the final lay, so your new lawn is ready to enjoy from day one.
And for customers who prefer to do things themselves, our turf pick-up option lets you collect your order straight from our Hawkesbury River farm at a time that suits you. However you’d like it delivered, we make it simple to get premium natural grass onto your property, backed by honest advice every step of the way.
More than Just a Turf Supply Business
For over 45 years, our family has been growing, supplying, and installing natural turf for homes and businesses across the area, and that experience is what sets us apart as a genuine turf company that property owners keep coming back to. We didn’t set out to be just another turf supply option among many; we wanted to be the team people call for the full journey, from choosing the right variety through to a flawless turf installation result.
Some of our customers prefer the convenience of a professional lay, while others enjoy the hands-on satisfaction of arranging their own turf pick-up from our Hawkesbury River farm. Either way, our decades of hands-on experience mean you’re getting advice and workmanship you can rely on, not guesswork.
Frequently Asked Questions
What areas do you service?
We supply and install turf right across greater Sydney, including the Hills District, Northern Beaches, Sutherland Shire, Western Sydney, and out to the Blue Mountains and Wollongong. If you’re unsure whether your suburb is covered, just give us a call and we’ll confirm straight away. We can also advise on the most practical delivery or installation timing for your location.
How much does turf installation cost?
Installation costs vary depending on the size of the area, the turf variety chosen, ground preparation required, and site accessibility. As a general guide, most residential jobs range from a few hundred to a couple of thousand dollars, but we’re happy to provide a free, no-obligation quote once we know a bit more about your project. This helps ensure the price reflects the work needed rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all estimate.
Can I organise turf pick-up instead of delivery?
Yes. Many of our customers choose to pick up their turf directly from our farm, especially for smaller jobs or when they want full control over timing. Simply let us know your preferred variety and pick-up date and we’ll have it freshly cut and ready to go. Pickup can also be a handy option if you already have a suitable vehicle or trailer available.
Do you install turf for commercial and council projects as well as homes?
Yes. Alongside residential lawns, we regularly supply and install turf for commercial landscapes, sports fields, parks, and developer projects, and can scale supply up for larger maxi roll orders. Our experience across different project sizes means we can plan supply and installation around practical site requirements.
How much turf do I need to order for my lawn?
Measure the length and width of your lawn area in metres and multiply them together to get the square metreage. For oddly shaped yards, break the space into smaller rectangles or triangles, work out each area, then add them together. Our team is always happy to double-check your measurements before you order. Ordering a small allowance for trimming can also help avoid running short during installation.
Is your turf grown locally or brought in from interstate?
All of our turf is grown and harvested on our own family-run farm on the Hawkesbury River, so it’s genuinely local. This means shorter travel times from paddock to property, which helps the turf arrive fresher and settle in faster. Local growing conditions also make our turf well suited to Sydney lawns.
Do you provide a delivery service, or do I have to arrange my own transport?
We offer delivery across greater Sydney for customers who’d rather not arrange their own transport. If you’re closer to our farm or have a suitable vehicle or trailer, pick-up is also available and can work out more cost-effective for smaller orders. Our team can help you choose the option that best suits your timing, budget, and order size.
