Urban Turf Solutions is thrilled to have been part of the highly anticipated The Block 2024 for a second season, bringing our premium turf range and team of experts to one of the most exciting projects of the season. In this year’s series, Blockheads were tasked with creating the outdoor communal area known as The Clubhouse. Among the standout features of this space was a stunning, ‘court-side at Wimbledon’ style tennis court, which we had the pleasure of working on in collaboration with a talented landscaping team.Â

Located next to a pristine pool area within The Clubhouse, this tennis court was designed to bring an air of luxury and leisure to the outdoor space on The Block. The project involved installing a full-sized tennis court where the Blockheads would put their skills to the test, transforming the area into a luxurious, recreational hub. With such high standards for quality and appearance, Urban Turf Solutions was proud to provide the perfect turf to bring this vision to life.

For this high-profile project, we chose our Urban Active 310 turf, one of our best tennis surfaces available. We’re always mindful of selecting products that will stand up to both aesthetic and functional demands, and Urban Active 310 is engineered specifically for high-traffic areas like tennis courts. It provides a perfect balance of durability, aesthetics, and performance, making it the ideal solution for a premium project like this one.
Its rich, vibrant colour and tightly woven fibers also offer exceptional resistance to wear, while providing that unmistakable lush look that stands out in every scene. Our Blockheads were certainly in for a treat when they got to see this beautiful surface up close!

The tennis court covered an impressive 470m² of area, and with around 500m² of turf supplied by Urban Turf Solutions, the space was perfectly prepared for both the rigorous demands of the competition and the high visual standards set by the show. The court area was meticulously installed to ensure a pristine finish that was as stunning as it was functional, seamlessly complementing the pool and the overall aesthetic of The Clubhouse.

At Urban Turf Solutions, we are constantly excited to push the envelope of what's possible in outdoor spaces, and our involvement in The Block 2024 is just another testament to our commitment to excellence. With products like Urban Active 310Â and collaborations with top experts, we continue to bring the highest quality turf to both high-profile projects and everyday landscapes. We can't wait to see how this stunning tennis court becomes a standout feature for its future residents.
