This Longueville project features premium 40mm pet-friendly astro turf installation and a custom concrete planter box with woodland grey texture coat render. The design creates a low-maintenance, durable outdoor space that withstands pet activity while providing an attractive, functional area for the homeowners to enjoy. The project demonstrates our ability to blend practical needs with aesthetic appeal in creating specialised outdoor solutions for Lower North Shore properties.

The Challenge

Pet-Friendly Requirements

The homeowners needed a durable outdoor surface that would withstand pet activity while remaining attractive and low-maintenance.

Space Definition

The area required clear visual definition and plant integration without sacrificing usable space for the residents and their pets.

Material Durability

All materials needed to withstand both pet activity and Lower North Shore weather conditions while maintaining their aesthetic appeal.

Our Solution

Premium 40mm Astro Turf

We installed high-quality 40mm astro turf specifically designed for pet use, with excellent drainage capabilities and durability against wear and tear.

Custom Concrete Planter Box

We constructed a robust concrete planter box that defines the space while providing an attractive area for plants and visual interest.

Woodland Grey Texture Coat

The planter box was finished with a premium woodland grey texture coat render, creating a contemporary look that complements the lush green turf.

Our Process

Our process for creating this pet-friendly outdoor space in Longueville began with a thorough consultation to understand the specific needs of both the homeowners and their pets, ensuring the finished space would be both beautiful and practical.

After finalising the design approach, we implemented the project through these carefully planned stages:

Site Assessment

We evaluated the existing outdoor space to determine the optimal layout for the turf area and planter box, considering factors such as sunlight, drainage, and the specific movement patterns of the homeowners' pets.

Material Selection

Based on the assessment, we selected premium 40mm astro turf with enhanced durability features specifically designed for pet use, and determined the appropriate construction materials for the concrete planter box.

Ground Preparation

The installation area was carefully prepared, ensuring proper levelling, compaction, and drainage to provide a stable foundation for the pet-friendly astro turf installation.

Planter Box Construction

We constructed a durable concrete planter box according to the approved design specifications, ensuring structural integrity and proper positioning within the space.

Texture Coat Application

The concrete planter box was professionally finished with premium woodland grey texture coat render, applied with expert technique to ensure a durable, attractive finish that complements the surrounding landscaping.

Turf Installation

The premium 40mm astro turf was expertly installed with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring proper tensioning, secure fastening, and clean edges for a professional finish.

Infill Application

We applied a pet-friendly infill material to support the turf fibres and provide additional cushioning, ensuring a comfortable and safe surface for both humans and pets.

Plant Selection and Installation

The planter box was filled with appropriate soil and selected plants that complement the overall design while being safe for pets in case of curious investigation.

Throughout the project, our team maintained clear communication with the homeowners, ensuring they were informed about our progress and consulting them on any decisions that would affect the final result.

The Outcome

The completed Longueville project has successfully transformed the outdoor space into a pet-friendly haven that balances aesthetic appeal with practical functionality. The premium 40mm astro turf provides a consistently lush, green surface that looks remarkably natural while offering superior durability for pet activities. The specialised turf fibres are resistant to wear and tear from pet nails and regular play, while the pet-friendly infill ensures a comfortable, safe surface for both the homeowners and their pets to enjoy. The strategically positioned concrete planter box creates attractive visual definition within the space, featuring a contemporary woodland grey texture coat render that complements both the vibrant green turf and the broader aesthetic of the property. This elegant planter not only enhances the visual appeal of the area but also provides an ideal location for selected plants that add further dimension to the space. The entire installation requires minimal maintenance compared to natural grass, eliminating the need for mowing, watering, fertilising, or treating pet waste damage. This low-maintenance solution is particularly valuable for busy homeowners, providing them with more time to enjoy their outdoor space rather than maintaining it. The permeable nature of the turf system ensures excellent drainage, preventing water pooling even after heavy rain, while the durable materials used throughout will maintain their appearance and functionality for years to come. This thoughtfully designed outdoor space now provides a perfect balance of practicality and visual appeal, creating an area where both the homeowners and their pets can safely enjoy time outdoors year-round.

"Outdoor Blitz transformed our outdoor space into something both beautiful and practical for our family and pets. The astro turf looks amazing and has completely withstood our dogs' daily play with no signs of wear. The concrete planter with its grey textured finish adds a stylish element to the space and beautifully frames the area. Their team was professional and considerate of our specific needs as pet owners. We couldn't be happier with the result—it's exactly what we wanted."
