Common questions  Stainesai
The cost can be influenced by the size of the area, site accessibility, soil condition, and the type of turf or seed used.
A newly laid lawn typically takes 2-3 weeks to establish, depending on weather conditions and maintenance.
Regular watering, especially in the first few weeks, and avoiding heavy use until the lawn is established are crucial for maintenance.
It's not recommended to lay turf over existing grass as it can lead to poor root establishment. Proper site preparation is essential. Always confirm with your tradesperson before work begins.
