The preparation sequence
New turf is only as good as the ground under it, so the work follows a set order before a single roll goes down.
- Old lawn, weeds and debris stripped off
- Soil dug or rotavated to loosen compaction
- Stones and rubble raked out
- Ground levelled and firmed by treading or rolling
- Fine tilth raked over the top
- Turf laid in staggered rows with tight joins
- Edges cut clean and the new lawn watered in
