Will Purcell
INSTALLER
I love this work because of the transformation it creates. Seeing the “before and after” never gets old. Every project is rewarding, and delivering that final result for our clients makes every day worth it.
I hold a Certificate III in Fitness, as well as First Aid, WWVP, and specialist training in asbestos and silica safety.
Growing up in Canberra, I’ve always been a proud local. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me on the rugby league field. I’ve been playing since I was five, first with the Tuggeranong Buffaloes and now with the Tuggeranong Bushrangers.

BILLY
QUALITY CONTROL
Every great team needs a watchdog.
Billy takes his role in quality assurance very seriously, keeping a close eye on every lawn installation (and occasionally testing the softness of the turf with an afternoon nap).
Known for his loyal supervision and wagging approval, Billy makes sure every project passes the ultimate test: paw-friendly comfort.

The quality of his work was excellent, and the end result looks great. His pricing was fair, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for artificial turf installation!"

" had artificial grass installed in the back yard about 6 months ago and it still looks brand new. Money well spent. It is apparent Blake is very experienced in installing artificial grass. He is also easy to communicate with and fairly priced. He also doesn't muck around onsite and will work until sundown if needed; which is something most tradies wont do. I highly recomend Rest Assured lawns if youre looking at artificial grass. This is a small local business well worth supporting"

We only use high-quality Aussie products
All of the artificial grass we use in Canberra is sourced from Urban Turf Solutions, a Queensland-based company that is known for its UV-resistant products, which is great for harsh local climates, while also being pet-friendly, child-safe, and backed by a trusted 7-year warranty.
Why We Choose It: Unlike many cheaper options, it doesn’t sit flat or look shiny and fake. With thick, durable blades designed for high foot traffic, it’s the most realistic-looking turf we’ve found. We’ve even met the team behind the product in person, which gives us extra confidence in its quality.
Our Story
Rest Assured Lawns grew out of Blake’s early career working alongside his father in the flooring industry. After discovering artificial turf, he quickly became hooked on the satisfaction of transforming spaces, watching the dramatic before-and-after results never gets old.
Unlike many providers in Canberra, Rest Assured Lawns focuses exclusively on artificial lawn, making us true specialists. We use only premium Australian-made products, installed with top-of-the-line equipment including a 2024 Kanga Loader, Billy Goat turf cutter, Wacker Neuson compactor, Milwaukee power tools, Stihl motor broom and blower, plus custom-built tipper truck and trailer.
As an owner-operated business, there are no middlemen or head office overheads, just competitive pricing, direct communication, and a strong sense of pride in every job.
From the initial quote through to final installation, Blake personally ensures each project is completed to the highest standard.
