Service overview

A new lawn starts with the ground underneath

Turf laying and lawn replacement for homes, rentals, strata and commercial properties across Sydney.

When a lawn fails, the cause can sit below the grass: compacted soil, poor falls, pooling water or a worn synthetic-turf base. We strip the agreed surface so those conditions can be checked, then prepare the soil or base, correct the listed levels or drainage and lay the new turf around paths and beds. At handover we explain the watering, traffic and first-cut care the lawn needs while it establishes.

  • Worn, patchy and failed lawns replaced
  • Synthetic grass and old underlay taken out

  • Turf variety matched to the sun, shade and use
  • Aftercare explained before we leave the site

Inclusions

What the turf laying covers

What goes on under the new lawn, how it is laid and what it needs afterwards.

  1. Old lawn and synthetic turf removal

    We strip the old grass, the weeds or the synthetic turf and its underlay, so we can see what the ground is actually like before anything new goes on it.

  2. Soil and base preparation

    Where the ground is compacted or the existing base is unsuitable, we loosen, improve or replace the agreed material, then grade an even growing layer for the turf.

  3. Levels and drainage

    If water sits in a corner or the fall runs back towards the house, we deal with it before the turf goes down. That work is listed in the quote so you can see what it involves.

  4. Turf chosen for the site

    The variety follows the yard: how much sun and shade the area gets, whether kids and pets are on it, how it drains, and how much watering and mowing you want to keep up with.

  5. Laying and finishing

    We lay the turf across the prepared ground, cut it cleanly around paths, beds and edges, water it in and leave the lawn ready for establishment.

  6. Establishment and aftercare

    We go through the early watering, keeping traffic off and when to make the first cut, then it can move into normal lawn care once it is holding.

Our process

How a turf laying job runs

We inspect the old surface and the ground beneath it before confirming the preparation and turf in the quote.

  1. Step 1

    We walk the lawn with you

    We check the old surface, the soil or underlay, the levels, where the water goes after rain, the sun and shade, the access and how the lawn gets used.

  2. Step 2

    You get a written price

    The quote sets out the removal, the soil and base work, any level or drainage correction, the turf and the laying, so you can see what is included before it is booked.

  3. Step 3

    We prepare the ground and lay the turf

    We strip the agreed surface, prepare and grade the ground, correct the listed levels or drainage, then lay the new lawn and cut it in around the paths and beds.

  4. Step 4

    We walk the finished lawn with you

    We water the turf in, clear the site and go through the establishment watering, limited traffic and first-cut care for the finished lawn.
