Topsoil in Tyldesley

Topsoil is the job we get called out for most in Tyldesley, and it nearly always comes back to the new estates. The gardens around Mosley Common and Astley were left with a thin skim of soil over subsoil and builders rubble, so beds sit low and lawns struggle. Screened topsoil builds the levels back up: bulk bags at roughly 0.7 m3, £70 each, and one bag covers about 7 m2 at 100mm. The same soil does the beds you want to plant into properly, so work out the depth you need and order the bags.

On the older streets the topsoil jobs are smaller: raising a border, filling a raised bed, topping up after a bit of landscaping. For a terrace with only ginnel access we will drop a single bulk bag at the kerb to barrow through. The bigger semis and the semi-rural plots out at Astley have room on the drive for a few bags at once. Ask about topsoil delivery and spread if you want it moved into place.

We deliver across Tyldesley and the surrounding area: Astley, Shakerley, Hindsford, Mosley Common and beyond (M29).

Our screened topsoil at £70 a bulk bag does the lot: building up lawns, general beds and planted borders. It is clean and easy to work, unlike the clay and rubble underneath.

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.

Yes. A clean screened topsoil laid at around 100mm is exactly what turf wants to root into. Rake it to a fine, level finish and firm it before the turf goes down. If the ground underneath is heavy clay or rubble, going a touch deeper helps drainage and root run.

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.
