Professional Natural Turf Installation for Melbourne Homes

Preparing the ground correctly is an important part of natural grass installation. Laying turf over poorly prepared soil can contribute to uneven growth, drainage issues and patches that struggle to establish. Before installation, the existing surface should be assessed so that weeds, unwanted vegetation, debris and unsuitable material can be addressed.

Ground preparation may involve clearing the area, improving the soil, establishing appropriate levels and preparing a suitable growing base. The finished surface should allow excess water to drain appropriately while providing suitable conditions for the grass roots to establish. The exact preparation required depends on the existing soil, slope, drainage and condition of the site.

Once the ground is ready, fresh turf can be positioned across the prepared area with care taken to achieve close joins and an even finish. After installation, the lawn needs suitable watering and establishment care. Following the recommended watering, mowing and usage guidance gives the new grass a better opportunity to develop a healthy root system.
