TigerTurf Indian Summer Lawn for Lasting Beauty and Benefits

The Project

None of the challenges or hard work for homeowners wanting the perfect lawn

A lush TigerTurf Indian Summer lawn relieved our client from the irritation of a natural lawn in dire need of a total renovation. TigerTurf had been keenly recommended by neighbours whose garden we transformed from difficult to delightful with a fabulous TigerTurf Indian Summer lawn. Having seen the splendid garden setting we had completed for the neighbours, our client knew Indian Summer was just what she needed, and commissioned TigerTurf to create some magic in her own garden.

Replacing a natural lawn in dire need of a total renovation

We set out to achieve an outstanding result for our Karaka client, and now she is over the moon with her brilliant TigerTurf Indian Summer lawn makeover. Our client wanted 5 easily maintained lawns for family use throughout the year, which would also create an attractive, restful green view from every window of the home.

Arrowtown School

TigerTurf’s collaboration with Arrowtown School is the culmination of a journey that began nearly a decade earlier. Initial conversations around upgrading the school’s outdoor sporting facilities started in 2016, with a shared ambition to create a high quality, future ready football field that would serve students for years to come. Over the following ten years, TigerTurf worked alongside the school as aspirations were refined, funding avenues explored, and technical constraints carefully addressed. Progress required patience, persistence, and trust on both sides, but the long term vision remained clear—deliver a surface that would genuinely transform how sport is played and experienced at the school.

Private Residence in Papamoa

TigerTurf was engaged to upgrade a 396m² outdoor area at a residential property in Papamoa, creating a low maintenance, year-round green space that complemented the home’s coastal setting. Working with local agent BayTurf, the team installed TigerTurf’s NRG 2 infill-free turf over an existing asphalt base to achieve a clean, contemporary finish with uniform colour and minimal upkeep.

Private Residence in Fitzroy

Taranaki Turf Doctors was engaged to support the development of a new residential property in Fitzroy, where the client wanted an outdoor space that would look sharp from day one and continue to perform well for future tenants. With the home being a new build, the brief centred on creating a tidy, durable landscape that would complement the clean architectural lines of the property. The developer was building his rental portfolio and wanted a surface that would present well during viewings, stay consistent year‑round, and reduce the ongoing maintenance burden for tenants. The 35m² area was modest, but the expectation for a polished finish meant every stage of the installation needed to be well‑planned.

Tikipunga Primary School

TigerTurf was pleased to return to Tikipunga School in Whangārei in 2021, following the success of an earlier project that had strengthened the relationship between the school and the installation team.
