Choose turfing after looking at the existing lawn
Tell us whether the lawn is patchy, uneven or difficult to use, and whether the surrounding paths and beds will stay. Those details help explain the result you want before a site visit. Turfing forms part of our landscaping work, with labour and materials stated separately. We discuss the proposed work against the actual ground and access; a change to the lawn does not automatically include rebuilding adjacent paving, fences or other parts of the garden.
The agreed scope may include removal, soil preparation, levelling and laying the selected turf. Edges should relate sensibly to paths, beds and existing features without raising soil against inappropriate surfaces. Supply and installation need coordination so turf can be laid promptly after delivery. Freshly laid grass requires watering and a period of restricted use while it roots. Weather and water availability therefore matter when choosing an installation date.
What we assess
Lay the selected turf
Coordinate supply, setting out and accessible edges. Product choice and substitutions should be approved before ordering.
Plan establishment
Arrange water and protect the new lawn from early traffic. Discuss when mowing and normal use can resume based on its condition.
What to send us
Send your postcode, approximate lawn measurements and photos of the existing ground and access. Include wet areas, slopes, trees and any previous fill or excavation. Explain whether you require supply and laying or a customer-supplied turf installation. Topsoil, removal, delivery and waste should be itemised where applicable.
What is separate
Substantial drainage works, deep unstable fill and retaining structures require separate assessment. No instant-use promise or turf survival confirm is assumed; establishment also depends on care after laying.
✦ BEFORE YOU BOOK
Turfing questions.
Can you replace my old lawn?+
Send photos and dimensions. Removal and soil correction are assessed alongside the new turf, particularly where the old lawn has uneven or wet patches.
Can you lay turf I supply?+
Discuss the product, delivery date and prepared ground. Customer supply must be coordinated so the turf remains suitable for laying.
When can I walk on the new lawn?+
Wait until rooting is sufficiently established and follow the agreed aftercare guidance. Timing varies with conditions rather than a fixed promise.
Does new turf need watering?+
Yes, dependable water access is important during establishment. The amount and frequency depend on soil, weather and the turf condition.
Would lawn restoration be enough instead?+
Possibly. If the existing lawn is viable, targeted renovation may be worth assessing before full replacement.
