More about topsoil in Atherton
Topsoil moves a lot in Atherton because so many gardens here need building back up. The terraced yards round Chowbent and Hindsford tend to be shallow and full of old rubble, and the newer Hag Fold plots sit on whatever the builders left, so a load of good garden soil is often the first job. We do one soil, screened topsoil at £70 a bulk bag, and it handles the lot: levelling, building up and giving seedbeds and lawns a clean root run.
Every bag holds around 0.7 cubic metres and covers roughly 7 square metres at 100mm depth, so measure the area and work out the bags from there. On the tight terraced rows the bags get set down at the kerb for you to barrow through, while the bigger semis round Howe Bridge and off Leigh Road have room to take them straight onto the drive. We also do bulk bag topsoil delivered and spread if you want it levelled and ready to seed or turf.
We deliver across Atherton and the surrounding area: Hag Fold, Howe Bridge, Chowbent, Hindsford and beyond (M46).
Which topsoil is right for a new lawn in Atherton?
We do one soil, screened topsoil at £70 a bulk bag, riddled clean of stones and lumps so it rakes level for seed or turf. On a new-build plot at Hag Fold you will often want a good hundred mil of it over the builders rubble before the turf goes down.
What is the difference between screened and unscreened topsoil?
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.
How much does a bulk bag of topsoil cost?
A bulk bag of our screened topsoil is £70, plus delivery from £20, worked out from your postcode and the size of the order. Put your postcode into the delivery checker and it confirms the exact figure before you order.
Can you deliver topsoil to a back garden?
We deliver kerbside as standard, which means the nearest safe spot to the property, usually the drive or the front. Getting it round the back is down to access. If you would rather not barrow it yourself, ask about delivered and spread: Barrow Landscaping brings the soil in and levels it out for you. Ask when you order.
