Turf condition
Grass turf is at its most flexible and easy to lay when it is cool and damp.
We recommend your new grass turf is laid soon as possible (preferably within
12 hours). If turf is allowed to become warm and lose its moisture it will lose
its flexibility and may well discolour. To prevent this, especially in warm dry
weather conditions consider either keep the stacked turf rolls in a shaded spot
or better still, unroll the individual turves onto plastic sheets, or lay them
out on soil, and water well every day until use.
Whether we deliver your grass turf to your home or to a landscape site, or you
collect it direct us, we will ensure that your turf rolls are cool and damp

| A guide: How to measure the area to be turfed. |
- Sketch an outline of the area you want to turf on a large sheet of paper.
- Divide the sketch into rectangles even is your proposed area is to be round.
- Now go to the area you want to turf and use stones or pegs to mark out the
corners of the rectangles you have just drawn in your sketch.
- Measure and record on your sketch the length and width of each rectangle
in metres or feet.
- Calculate the total area of each rectangle by multiplying the length X width
of each.
- Add all of the total areas of each rectangle together and multiply the total
length X total width to get the total number of squared metres (or feet) required.
- Finally, multiply the total number of square metres (or feet) by 5% (multiply
total area X 5 and divide by 100) to allow for trimming.
|
| You have now calculated the total number of square metres (or square feet)
of paving stone you will need to order. |
