Turf laying in Spennymoor

Turf laying in Spennymoor, Tudhoe and Ferryhill

Spennymoor has grown a lot in recent years, with new estates around the edge of the town alongside its older terraced streets. That means plenty of new-build gardens waiting for a proper lawn, and older lawns ready for a fresh start.

New estates

From builder's soil to lawn

On the newer estates, gardens are often handed over as levelled soil or a thin builder's lawn. Getting the ground right before turfing gives the new lawn its best start. See new-build gardens.

Heavy ground

Puddles after rain?

If your lawn stays soggy after rain or cracks in dry spells, there may be clay not far below. Loosening the ground and working in topsoil helps new turf root into it. See ground preparation.

Questions

Questions people ask us

The lawn the builder laid hasn't taken. What can be done?

The failed turf can be lifted, the ground underneath loosened and topped up, and fresh turf laid. Mention it on the form.

Do you cover Ferryhill and Kirk Merrington?

Yes, along with Tudhoe, Middlestone Moor, Byers Green, Page Bank and Croxdale. Ask if your village isn't named.

Can you work around a new patio or path?

Yes. New turf is cut neatly to the edges of patios, paths and drives.
