Hi

Will be making a new lawn in a few weeks and wonderd if anyone has any tips?

Is it better to grow the grass from seed or to lay turf?

Thanks in advance :)

    Turf it definitely and an instant lawn too. I've done both and the seeded lawn was never as good and left me wishing I really hadn't bothered.
  • TURF - make sure it's good quality from a reputable seller. Make sure you have enough! Make sure ground is level and lay turf correctly. Try HOW TO LAY TURF
