Turf Installation Bristol
-
Artificial Grass/synthetic turf - this is a substitute for real grass, which offers a similar aesthetic but far less maintenance. It is made of fibres that closely replicate the feel and look of grass, and is often used in gardens and sports pitches
-
Traditional turf - Rolls of grass grew for the intent of being used for turf. Once laid, it grows and needs regular maintenance.
-
Seeding - This is not turfing, but instead planting new grass on an area of earth by putting grass seeds across the area.
Frequently asked Turfing Questions
When is the best time to lay turf?
The best time to lay turf is in Spring or Autumn, as the ground is neither too dry or too wet. During these months, especially Spring, foliage flourishes, allowing the grass to quickly take to the ground it has been placed on, establishing a deep root system, letting it thrive in the summer months.
How long until turf lines disappear?
For turf lines to no longer be visible, it can take a few weeks, as the turf needs time to grow together and develop it's roots to form 1 cohesive lawn. To make sure this process happens as fast as it can, make sure to water your lawn regularly. Also make sure to limit foot traffic on newly places turf, as this can increase the time it takes for the lines to go.
Artificial grass or real grass?
This depends on what your looking for, both have many benefits. Real grass is considerably cheaper than artificial grass, however it will take more time to maintain as it grows and will need cutting. Real grass also is more nature friendly, and absorbs heat more than artificial turfing, cooling your garden in summer.
How often should I water newly laid turf?
The best way to approach watering newly laid turf in water it with smaller amounts regularly, rather than a lot of water at once occasionally. This ensures the grass is not drowned but at the same time is always moist, giving the best environment for the root system to quickly develop.
