Would definitely recommend these guys. Martin and his team did a great job installing our grass. Martin did the qoute on Thursday and they came to install the Saturday. All the way from Kraaifontein to Fish Hoek. Very quick, efficient and good communication from Washington. Keep up the great work!

Lawns first, paving close behind
The Northern Suburbs are home to Royal Paving: our base is at Elders Farm, Old Paarl Road, Kraaifontein. People across the Northern Suburbs search for artificial grass and for paving, and one team lays both.

Compost, bark and sandThe 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.

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.

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.
