Preparation makes the lawn
New turf only thrives on good ground. We remove the old lawn and weeds, cultivate and improve the soil, then level and firm it before laying.
We lay quality turf with tight joints, roll it and explain watering so it roots quickly.
Large Shortlands lawns may need levelling and drainage before new turf.
