Turf to lay yourself

Buying turf only? We lay lawns, so here's where to look

Durham Turfing is a turf laying service: we get the ground ready and lay your new lawn. We don't sell turf on its own for delivery or collection.

Laying it yourself? A few pointers

  • Measure every section and allow some spare for cutting to shape
  • Prepare the ground before the turf arrives: cleared, loosened, level and firm
  • Lay turf as soon as you can after it's delivered, while it's fresh
  • Stagger the joints like brickwork and butt the edges tight
  • Water generously straight after laying and keep it watered while it roots
