Artificial Turf Installation in Kenton
Looking for artificial grass work in Kenton? WM Driveways installs artificial turf lawns across Kenton (NE3) and the wider Newcastle area, with the sharp detailing and clean finish local homeowners actually notice from the pavement.
The short version
Artificial Turf Installation works in Kenton generally break down into three phases: careful prep, correct sub-base, and a well-detailed surface. Skip any one and the job looks fine for a summer, then starts to move.
On this page we've set out how WM Driveways approaches artificial grass in the NE3 area — the choices you'll actually be making, and the local factors we plan around before a spade goes in the ground.

What this surface does well
Working in your area
Kenton is characterised by 1950s semis, dormer bungalows and off-street driveways on wide plots. That means we tailor the spec to the street rather than dropping in an off-the-shelf build. We routinely work across Gosforth and Fawdon too, so we know the streets, the access constraints and the type of artificial grass spec that actually holds up here.

Common questions from homeowners
Do you cover my postcode?+
Yes — Kenton (NE3) is inside our regular coverage area. We work right across Newcastle and the wider North East, so travel isn't a problem.
What about drainage and SUDS?+
Where required we build in a soakaway or connect to an existing surface water drain — never into foul drainage.
Do I need planning permission?+
For most private residential artificial turf lawns the answer is no, provided the surface is permeable or drains to a soakaway within the property. We'll flag anything unusual before we start.
Are you insured?+
Yes. We carry public liability insurance and are happy to share a copy of the certificate with your quote.
Do you offer a guarantee?+
We stand behind our workmanship and manufacturer product warranties apply on the surfaces themselves — we'll set the specifics out clearly in your quote.
