More about lawn turf in Swinton
A new lawn is one of the most common jobs we turf in Swinton, especially on the 1930s semis around Moorside and Newtown where the old grass has gone to moss and bare patches under next door's trees. Our premium lawn turf is £4 per m2, cut to order and out next-day across M27, and it is worth ordering about 5% extra to cover the cuts.
Measure the plot, order the rolls and lay it yourself, or take the supplied and laid option and Barrow Landscaping handles the returfing start to finish. That means lifting the old lawn, levelling, a bed of topsoil where it is needed and the turf down and rolled. Handy for the bigger back gardens up towards Swinton Park where there is a lot of ground to cover.
We deliver across Swinton and the surrounding area: Wardley, Moorside, Newtown, Swinton Park, Clifton and beyond (M27).
How quickly can I get lawn turf delivered in Swinton?
Turf is cut fresh the day it goes out, so order by early afternoon and we will usually have it on your Swinton street the next day. It wants laying within a day of delivery, so only order once the ground is prepped and ready.
Will turf take in a shady Swinton back garden?
A lot of the north-facing back gardens around Wardley and the terraced rows sit in shade for half the day, and turf wants decent light. We supply one premium turf rather than a shade blend, so if your garden is heavily shaded, ring us before you order and we will give you a straight answer.
Can I just buy turf and lay it myself?
Yes. We supply turf cut to order for you to take delivery of and lay yourself. Because it is cut fresh it needs laying within about a day, so have the ground prepared and ready before it arrives: dug over, levelled, raked to a fine tilth and firmed. If you want the ground doing too, that is what the supplied-and-laid option is for.
What does supplied and laid mean?
It means the whole job is handled, not just the turf. Barrow Landscaping comes out and measures, prepares the ground properly, strips any old lawn, levels it and brings in topsoil where it is needed, then lays fresh turf the day it is cut. You get a finished lawn rather than a pallet of turf to deal with. It is the option most people go for once they see the price difference against buying materials and hiring a rotavator.
When is the best time to lay turf?
Spring and autumn are ideal, when the ground is warm and there is usually enough rain to help it root. Turf can go down almost all year as long as the ground is not frozen or waterlogged. Summer laying is fine but needs a strict watering routine while it establishes. We will be honest about timing when you enquire.
