Lawn Turfing Services in Santry
Getting new turf laid completely transforms your garden overnight, giving you a fully grown lawn in a single day instead of hanging around for months while grass seed does its thing. How long your new turf lasts really comes down to proper preparation from the start and looking after it properly afterwards.
Our lawn installation services include low maintenance alternatives like artificial grass, which comes in loads of different styles, colours and textures to suit whatever look you’re after.
Lawn Preparation
We kick things off by stripping away all the existing plant growth and clearing out any rubbish—old turf, roots, stones, anything that might leave you with bumpy patches later on. The ground gets rotavated to break up any compaction, which is especially important on new build properties where all that heavy machinery has really packed the soil down tight.
Bringing in topsoil is often needed. We’re looking at getting 100-150mm depth of decent quality topsoil, which gives the grass roots plenty of space to establish themselves properly. Rubbish soil will always give you a rubbish lawn, no matter how good the turf is. We level and grade everything carefully, building in gentle slopes away from the house so water drains away nicely rather than sitting in puddles.
Just before the turf goes down, we give the surface a final rake and a light firming—solid enough that you can walk on it without leaving footprints, but not packed down too hard.
Alongside our turfing services in Santry, we provide other options for your garden, including artificial grass installations, patio paving and more.
