Before you order your turf


If you are thinking of ordering turf from us, then before you order the turf for your lawn make sure that you accurately measure the dimensions of the area it will be laid (in square metres or yards). You can then use our online turf calculator to get a good idea of how much the turf will cost. When our turf is delivered it is supplied in compact rolls, which makes it easier to handle and lay. Visit our website for more details.

Producing our turf


To produce quality turf we have to follow our production process. The main steps in the production process are as followed:
- Seed Selection
We basically select a seed to use, by choosing them from one of our specialist seed houses.
- Mowing
The first mowing of the turf generally takes place 3-4 weeks after germination, and one of our rotary mowers is used.
- Irrigation
This makes sure the turf is moist prior to cutting and helps to ensure that it reaches the customer in the best possible condition.
- Weed Control
Weed control takes place throughout the entire production process and we ensure that only what we have planted grows.
- Harvesting
Before we harvest, we assess each field to ensure that the turf is in its best possible condition. A pre-harvest fertiliser is also applied to our turf.
- Distribution
The final part of our production process is the distribution of our lawn turf. We have an extensive distribution fleet to satisfy the requirements of each of our customers.

Mowing your new lawn

You should always try to resist mowing your new lawn turf until the lawn has rooted. You might ask, ‘how do I check if my turf is rooted?’ Well it is simple, all you need to do is lift the corner of a strip of turf and check if the roots are attached to the soil below. Also, when you first mow your newly laid turf remove no more than one third of the grass height. Find out more tips on mowing your lawn by visiting us online at www.easylawn.co.uk/index.php?page=74

Watering your turf

Newly laid lawn turf should be watered thoroughly and within half an hour after it has been laid. Thorough watering should take place at least once every day until you know the roots of the lawn are well established. For a rough guide, around 2 hours per day of constant watering should be carried out across the entire lawn, however, if the weather is really hot or dry then watering should last a while longer.

How to lay turf


There are many different ways that turf can be layed, however, some are better than others. Laying turf in the correct way is extremely important and one of the most important things that you first need to consider is the condition of the ground you are laying it on. The ground needs to be prepared in the right way so that the turf remains in a high quality state. If the ground is prepared badly then this will never produce the best results for the lawn.
