Nothing lifts the look of a garden quite like a lush, green lawn. If your current grass is looking tired, patchy or beyond reviving, turfing could be just what your outdoor space needs. It’s a straightforward way to breathe new life into your garden, and at Edge & Cut, we’re here to make the process smooth and stress-free.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or replacing an existing lawn, turfing offers immediate impact. Unlike grass seed, which can take weeks (or even months) to fully grow in, turf gives you that finished look straight away—ideal if you’re prepping for summer barbecues, a house sale, or simply want to enjoy your garden more.
What Does Turfing Involve?
Turfing isn’t just about rolling out some grass and calling it a day. A quality result starts with proper ground preparation. This includes removing weeds or old lawn, improving the soil if needed, and levelling the area to avoid bumps and dips later on. Once that’s done, fresh turf is laid neatly, with each roll tightly joined for a seamless look.
Our team takes care to match the type of turf to your needs—whether you’re after something durable for pets and kids or a finer lawn with a neat, ornamental finish.
Why Choose Turf Over Seed?
Here are a few key reasons why turfing remains a popular choice among homeowners:
● Instant visual impact with no waiting around
● Less chance of weeds taking over in the early stages
● More resilient and established from day one
● Easier to manage in gardens with slopes or uneven areas
Maintaining Your New Lawn
Once your turf is down, it’s all about giving it the best start. Watering is especially important in the first couple of weeks, helping the roots settle in. It’s also wise to hold off on mowing until the grass has grown to around 7–8cm—this gives it time to establish properly.
After that, ongoing care is simple: regular mowing, occasional feeding, and a bit of weeding here and there. We’re always happy to share advice on how to keep your new lawn looking sharp through the seasons.
