Chester-le-Street gardens
Older semis
Long back gardens
Many of the town's older semi-detached homes have long, narrow back gardens. Over the years the lawn often ends up uneven, shaded at the far end or worn down the middle. Lifting and relaying the whole length gives you an even lawn from the patio to the fence.
Down by the river
Ground that holds water
Lower-lying gardens towards the river can stay damp through the winter. Turf isn't laid on waterlogged ground, so dates are set for when it's workable, and preparing the soil well helps the new lawn cope.
Newer estates
Front lawns that set off the house
On the newer estates around Chester-le-Street, front lawns are on show to the whole street. A fresh, neatly edged front lawn is a quick way to smarten a house.

Yes, along with Pelton, Pelton Fell, Great Lumley, Kimblesworth and Plawsworth. Ask if your village isn't listed.
Our garden gets boggy in winter. Can it be turfed?
Turf isn't laid on waterlogged ground, so the date is set for when it's workable. Mention the wet patch on the form, because ground preparation can make a real difference.
Can you turf a long, narrow garden?
Yes. Let us know roughly how long it is and how we reach it, and the quote will allow for moving turf down the garden.
