Summer turfing is possible with strict daily watering; winter laying works in mild spells. ### Why professional help matters Turf is only as good as the soil under it. Lay premium turf onto compacted, weed-rooted, builder-grade soil and you'll see yellow patches and weed bleed-through within weeks. Proper soil preparation — strip, rotovate, screen, level, fertilise — is 80% of the job. Recent turf projects ## Turf we’ve recently built across West Sussex.

A new turf lawn that fails establishment in the first 30 days almost always fails because of what's underneath. ### Risks of ignoring it - Yellow joints and bare patches where turf rolls dried out unevenly in the first fortnight. - Bumpy, uneven lawn that can't be mowed cleanly because the soil was never screened or levelled. - Existing weeds and couch grass coming back through the new turf within months. - Soil compaction below the root zone meaning the lawn never deep-roots and stays patchy forever. - Wasted spend on premium turf laid onto soil that needed a full overhaul first. ### Common mistakes - Laying turf onto existing lawn without stripping and de-thatching first. - Skipping the rotovation step on heavy clay West Sussex soils. - Not pre-fertilising — turf burns through topsoil nutrients in 2–3 weeks. - Underwatering in the first 14 days and writing off the establishment. Our process ## How we deliver turf — step by step. 1. 01 ### Survey & soil assessment We test soil type, compaction, drainage and shade, and confirm whether topsoil import is needed. 2. 02 ### Written quote Itemised: strip out, rotovation, topsoil import (if required), levelling, turf spec, aftercare plan. 3. 03 ### Soil preparation Existing lawn stripped, soil rotovated to 100–150mm, weeds and stones removed, fresh screened topsoil imported where needed, levelled and pre-fertilised. 4. 04 ### Turf laid Cultivated turf rolls laid in brickwork-pattern offset joints, butted tight with no gaps, edges trimmed clean. 5. 05 ### Roll, water & handover Lawn rolled to ensure root contact, soaked thoroughly, and a written 30-day watering and first-mow plan handed over. Benefits ## Why homeowners across West Sussex choose us for turf. ### Instant lawn Use it in 3–4 weeks instead of waiting months for seed to establish. ### Even, level finish Properly screened and levelled soil gives a flat lawn you can mow cleanly. ### Premium cultivated turf Dense rye-and-fescue blends bred for hard-wearing family use — not meadow turf. ### Establishes evenly Pre-fertilised soil and a 30-day plan means no yellow patches or weak joints. ### Works around hardscape Trimmed clean to patios, paths and beds for a professional finish. ### Adds garden value A perfect lawn is the cheapest single upgrade to a tired garden. Specification & detail ## The detail behind a turf job done properly. Materials, methods and variations — what actually goes into a long-lasting build. ### Turf varieties Cultivated rye-fescue blends for family lawns (hard-wearing, fast-establishing, year-round colour); shade-tolerant fescue blends for north-facing or tree-shaded gardens; ornamental fine-leaf turf for show lawns where heavy use isn't expected. ### Soil preparation Heavy West Sussex clay soils almost always need rotovation, drainage assessment and topsoil import to a 100mm depth minimum. Sandy coastal soils near Littlehampton benefit from organic-matter addition and more aggressive fertilising. ### Drainage Where existing lawns puddle in winter, we install French drains, raised soil profiles or specify a sand-amended root zone. Persistent waterlogging is rarely solved by turf alone and we'll be honest about it. ### Aftercare Days 1–14: water heavily morning and evening. Days 15–30: reduce gradually, light first mow at 25mm above the soil. Months 2–6: full mowing routine, monthly feed in growing season, autumn scarification. ### When NOT to lay turf If the garden is permanently shaded, has pet-urine concentration zones, or sees vehicle parking, artificial grass or hard landscaping is the honest answer — we'll tell you that at the survey rather than take your money.
