I contacted Royal Paving and Washington came to assess my yard and he outright presented a plan on how he will execute the task at hand. Royal paving spent the following days backfilling, leveling and compacting my yard, and even building drainage systems. … The artificial grass was just a cherry on top.

Washington and team are skilled professionals and it was simple and easy to have them on board, they take care of everything from the quote all the way through to implementation of the job. … They really take pride in their work, especially installing the paving and artificial lawn.. they work quickly, and transform your garden in a couple of days.

Washington and his team were professional and their workmanship was outstanding. They took our vision and ideas, and planned and advised, and then delivered a better completed project than we imagined. They worked with precision and speed and were very neat.

Washington and the team from Royal Paving did an excellent job. From my first call to request a quotation, I was amazed at the level of service they gave. They finished the project in time and there were no hidden extra costs.

They did a good job paving my driveway with half brick wheatstone pavers. Additionally ripped up, cleaned and repaved another area with my old pavers. Happy with quality of the work and the fact that the team got this done just before Christmas!

Our own region

Artificial grass across the Northern Suburbs

The Northern Suburbs take in Bellville, Durbanville, Brackenfell, Kraaifontein and Kuils River among others, and we are based inside them. From Elders Farm, Brackenfell is about 6 km away in a straight line, Durbanville about 10 km, Kuils River about 12 km and Bellville about 13 km.

The region runs from the low-lying Cape Flats in the south to the rolling Tygerberg hills in the north, so a lawn in the flat south and one on a hillside start from very different ground. When we lay artificial grass on soil, drainage is part of the installation, and Washington or the team sees the ground before quoting.

Summers here are hot and dry and winters wet. Our grass is UV protected and can withstand high and low temperatures, and the warranty depends on the grass: 8 years on 30 mm Fairway Autumn and 30 mm Fairway Spring in normal sun conditions, 3 years on 30 mm Fairway Fern, and 10 years on 35 mm Fairway Summer, sun intensity dependent. See the full range on our artificial grass page.

A lawn, a paved path and cobble edging between them can be one quote, because the same team lays all three. For dogs, there is pet-friendly artificial grass.

How it works

How we lay a lawn

Wherever you are in the Northern Suburbs, we come from Elders Farm, Old Paarl Road, Kraaifontein (see our base on Google Maps).

  1. Choose a grass

    Tell us the space and how it is used: children, dogs, a putting green. Send the form, call or WhatsApp 081 597 4657.

  2. Ground first

    Washington or the team sees the ground, then quotes. On soil, drainage is part of the installation.

  3. Laid and covered

    The grass goes down, with cobble edging if you want it. Our grass warranties run 3, 8 or 10 years, by product.

Rules to know

Watering rules and your lawn

The old Northern Suburbs municipalities, such as Bellville, Durbanville and Kraaifontein, are now all part of the City of Cape Town, so one set of water rules covers the region. The City’s Water By-law has permanent rules that hold even without drought restrictions, and in 2021 the City reminded residents to water gardens on municipal drinking water only before 9am or after 6pm. Artificial grass reduces the water your garden uses.

Common questions

Questions about lawns in the region

Which areas of the Northern Suburbs do you cover?

We work throughout the Northern Suburbs from our base in Kraaifontein. Bellville, Durbanville, Brackenfell, Kraaifontein and Kuils River have their own pages; for anywhere else, tell us your suburb when you ask for a quote.

Can I buy artificial grass in the Northern Suburbs without installation?

Yes. Our grass is for sale on its own as well as supplied and laid; see artificial grass for sale for each grass and its price.

Which artificial grass is best for dogs in the Northern Suburbs?

Petscape. Its woven backing lets urine drain through, the yarn is treated so bacteria can’t live and breed on it, and it goes onto a more porous sub-base.

Do you lay paving in the Northern Suburbs too?

Yes: slabs, driveway pavers and cobbles, on a graded and compacted base with a 5-year warranty. See paving in Cape Town.

Is Royal Paving based in the Northern Suburbs?

Yes, at Elders Farm, Old Paarl Road, Kraaifontein, on the region’s north-eastern edge.
