Soil Tips

Soil needs to have a minimum depth of 75 mm (3 inches) in order to allow the growth of high quality turfs. This is especially the case for poor-quality ground.

When laying a new lawn, be sure to add slightly more soil than usual, as newly applied turf sinks slightly when wet.

Our handy 25 kg bags of soil are useful for moving to the site of your new lawn, causing minimal inconvenience.

We also supply sand that, when washed and mixed with soil, increases the drainage capability of your lawn.

To calculate how much soil you need, we have our online soil calculator.
