Lawn Turfing Services in Orpington
Installing new turf transforms your garden immediately, providing you with a fully established lawn in just one day rather than waiting months for grass seed to grow. The longevity of your fresh turf relies completely on meticulous preparation and ongoing maintenance.
Lawn Preparation
We start by removing all existing plant growth and clearing away debris—such as old turf, roots, and stones that could otherwise cause uneven surfaces. The ground needs rotavating to reduce compaction, which is particularly important on newly constructed properties where heavy machinery has compressed the soil.
Adding topsoil is often necessary. We aim for 100-150mm depth of quality topsoil, giving grass roots sufficient room to develop properly. Poor quality soil will always result in poor quality lawns, regardless of the turf standard. We level and grade carefully, creating subtle slopes away from buildings to prevent water pooling.
Before laying turf, the surface receives a final raking and light consolidation—firm enough to walk on without footprints appearing, but not overly compacted.
In addition to our turfing services in Orpington, we offer complementary solutions for your garden, including artificial grass installations, fence installations and more.
