A new lawn is only as good as the ground it goes down on. Turf laid straight onto poorly prepared soil looks green for a few weeks and then shows every dip and root left underneath it. Getting the ground right first — clearing, levelling, breaking up compacted soil and working in topsoil where it’s needed — is most of what makes a new lawn actually last.
Turf or seed
Turf gives an instant, usable lawn and is the better option where there’s a deadline — a sale, an event, kids who want to use the garden now. Seeding costs less and, given the right weeks to establish, gives a lawn that’s arguably more resilient long-term since the roots grow into the actual soil from day one rather than an imported layer. We’ll talk through which suits the timeline and the budget.
This isn’t grass cutting
If the lawn’s already there and just needs regular care, see grass cutting. This page is specifically about putting a new lawn down — a bare patch, a full garden redesign, or replacing a lawn that’s beyond saving.
