What is turfing?

Turf is essentially a pre-made lawn, a mat of grass and earth with roots that will easily become establish once planted and cared for properly.

Typically available as pre-cut squares or in long rolls, it provides a great way to create a well-established lawn without the wait.

What's involved in laying turf?

While every setup is different, laying turf usually follows these steps...

Carefully lay the turf onto the prepared soil, fitting it to the shape of your lawn.
Next, gently firm down the turf using a piece of wood to ensure it makes full contact with the soil below.
You may also wish to trim the edges of your turf to cater for any beds, trees, paths or other garden features.
Fill any cracks with light soil.
Ensure the turf is very well watered, to begin with.
And finally, as with any lawn, ensure it is well-maintained ongoing.

Here at High Peak Garden Construction, we also offer lawn scarification & aeration services.
