Understanding Walton on the Hill's Soil and What It Means for Your Lawn

Walton on the Hill sits high on the North Downs, where heathland, clay and chalk meet — and getting this right is critical to a long-lasting lawn.

• Walton Heath (sandy, gravelly ground): Light, acidic, free-draining heath soil that dries out in summer. We use drought-tolerant turf and enrich the topsoil to hold moisture.

• Clay-with-flints (higher ground around the village): A stony, sticky clay over chalk that can hold water in winter. We remove flints, improve the topsoil and level for even drainage.

• Chalk (slopes towards Headley): Shallow, alkaline, free-draining soil. We build depth with quality topsoil and choose turf suited to chalky conditions.

Reigate project — 480m² lawn with sleeper retaining wall

A recent example from our home town of Reigate: a customer near the town centre came to us after their lawn had been ruined during a house extension. We removed the old compacted ground, imported and levelled 40 tonnes of topsoil, and installed 480m² of premium lawn turf — finishing with a sleeper retaining wall at the rear boundary. The result was a stunning, level lawn ready to use within 4 weeks.
