How heavy is each turf roll?
If you want to collect your turf, each turf weighs from 15-20kg so take this into account if you want to collect your turf.
How do I lay turf?
The important part of creating a new lawn is the preparation!
Any old lawn must be removed and preferably treated for weeds, the ground should then be dug over and levelled. The soil is best to be left for a few days to settle, but the longer the better to prevent an uneven lawn. Depending on your existing soil and layer of new topsoil (our 10mm screened, loamed topsoil is perfect) can be raked over to create a perfect base for your new turf. You are now ready to lay your new turf, preferably avoid walking on your newly laid rolls of grass! For more information watch these YouTube videos:
How much notice do you need to order?
The more time the better but generally 2-3 working days.
