Topsoil in Ashton-under-Lyne

Topsoil moves well around Ashton-under-Lyne because so many of the gardens need it. The Victorian terraces off the town centre sit on tired, compacted ground that has never been topped up, and the mossland soil out towards Ashton Moss is heavy and wet under the surface. A fresh depth of screened topsoil sorts both, giving roots something to get into before you turf or seed.

We sell one topsoil and it earns its place: screened topsoil at £70 a bulk bag. Each bag holds around 0.7 cubic metres and covers roughly 7 square metres at 100mm, and it handles the lot, building levels, topping beds and bedding lawns. On the low-lying, mossy plots a proper depth of it lifts and drains the ground. Delivered and spread for you if you would rather not shift it.

We deliver across Ashton-under-Lyne and the surrounding area: Waterloo, Hurst, Smallshaw, Ashton Moss and beyond (OL6, OL7).

For a new lawn, screened topsoil is the one, £70 a bulk bag. Lay it around 100mm deep over the old ground, rake it level and it gives the turf or seed a clean, stone-free bed to root into.

Yes, we deliver bulk bag topsoil right across OL6 and OL7, Ashton Moss included. The ground out there is old wet mossland, so a decent depth of screened topsoil over the top makes all the difference before planting or turfing.

Screened topsoil is passed through a mesh that removes stones, root and lumps, so it is clean and easy to work, and it is the right choice for lawns, beds and anything you are planting into. Unscreened topsoil is cheaper but full of whatever came off site, and it is not a seed bed. Ours is screened, so what arrives is ready to use.
