Beautiful photo! The artificial grass in this photo looks really good. Do you have any company's that you recommend? Some look really fake.

Give us a call! We would love to help you with your project. As most things go, you get what you pay for. A high grade turf is very natural looking.

Garden: Turf on top of existing lawn with layer of topsoil in between

We hired someone to kill off the lawn with a spray. After a couple of months the landscapers uses a rotovator to turn over the dead lawn then finally levelled with new topsoil before adding turf. This was cheaper than lifting the old turf and paying for disposal. No problems with the new lawn and it took hold within a couple of weeks. This method needs dry weather for the lawn killer to work.

I feel guilty watering too but some of my plants and trees haven’t been in the ground long enough to be able to survive this drought! However my grass has massive brown patches at the moment. Anyway grass is tough and I’ve had turf laid quite a few times and for different reasons (little kids big dogs and a christening) they’ve all ended up being walked on before they should and been fine. If we have storms and the new grass gets very sodden that’s the condition I might be worried about where trampling might cause damage and even pull it up.

I’m an amateur gardener who’s tried lots of stuff without knowing what I’m doing in my time so take limited notice of me. But I know it’s the edges of new turf that are most prone to drying and failing so I’d make sure the edges are laid from full width strips and spread the cuts over the middle sections. You could start in the middle and work out to the sides but make any width cuts before you get to edge. Or be a sensible person and wait til someone who really knows gives you advice :)

It would make a fabulous flower border, but it depends how much maintenance you are happy to do. If you fill a border completely so no soil shows, this will help keep weeds down. To get rid of the weeds you could dig it over with a garden fork, removing the weeds as you go. A lot of people now use weed flame guns which burn the weeds. Another option is weedkiller but it is horrendous stuff that kills all nature’s mini beasts as well as the weeds so best as a last resort. I’ll be honest you won’t ever kill all the weeds, it’s an ongoing issue. A lot of weeds, like dandelions, air born so they fly in the air and land on soil and then grow. Turf is an option if you don’t mind cutting it each week. Weeds will grow through turf so you still need to remove the weeds before turfing. My last idea is to sow a flower meadow. You can sow seeds or buy meadow turf on a roll and lay that.
