Really delighted that my practical step-by-step video for B&Q has now had over 1 million views! Hopefully there are now many, many beautiful new lawns gracing gardens around the country. Now's the perfect time for some spring lawn care, so pop into your local B&Q store to find out what you should be doing to keep it in top condition.

Very helpful video. I am now confident of doing DIY for the garden as I have been quoted for over a £1000 for the job. Thank you.

Good video. If the ends of the rolls of turf are not square, overlap one roll end onto another by about 2 inches. Then cut through both mats of turf with a long knife. Throw away the trimmed ends and you should have two straight edges to join together.

@framedoc1 4 года назад

I liked your video as it confirmed most of my ideas on how I will proceed. One thing I would like to mention is that you did "brick" your sods but you didn't actually make mention that this is what should be done. By "bricking" I mean overlapping the sods as though you were laying bricks in a wall. Overall well done though....hope my DIY turf project comes out as good as yours :)

@Hurricanehig 4 года назад

I thought the exact same thing, the reason i watched the video was to find out that information.

What preparation do we need for laying turf in a new build houses lawn? It is full of stones and the soil is pale.

@Playwithwill16 5 лет назад

My backyard is very dusty. Any way I can fix it and grow grass

@utubebroadcaster 4 года назад

How long does it need to be watered for everyday? I hear some people say 10min and others 5min. It's for 20m2.

@Rachel.891 3 года назад

How long would you wait before you sew grass seeds if you were not laying turf?

@bandq 3 года назад

The preparation is the same for sewing grass seeds and laying turf. If you can, try and leave the area for several weeks so the rain gets on it and the ground settles 😊

@jasonantigua6825 3 года назад

There’s a lot of clay in my garden,what advice could you give me? Thanks

substitute compost and manure for sand. fork the sand into the entire area to a spades depth.

@travelsphereuk-7090 2 года назад

I have stinging nettle plant growing. It is very difficult to pull roots out. Can I just throw my real grass turf rolls over it. Please advice.

@bandq 2 года назад

We would not recommend doing this, as there may be implications in the future. We'd recommend popping by your local store and our expert staff will be on hand to advise on the best method to remove the nettle plant 🌱 We hope this helps 😊

@stukerr9372 2 года назад

If you were going to do this with seeds rather than turf is there a preferred method for spreading evenly?

@bandq 2 года назад

Hi, Stu! We'd recommend checking out this article from our website, which should tell you all you need to know: bit.ly/2OsiyMl. Hope this helps!

@Pauly171 7 дней назад

Hi, Can you lay the new turf the same day as prepping the soil and applying new top soil? I've seen a few different answers, and im not sure which is correct?

@bandq 5 дней назад

Ideally you should wait between 1-3 weeks between preparation and laying the turf to allow the topsoil to settle. Watering the topsoil is also recommended before laying. Ensure that once turf is delivered, you lay it within 24 hours as waiting longer is detrimental to the turf quality. Hope this helps! 🌱

@Pauly171 5 дней назад

@@bandq thank you!

@MM-kz9pd 3 года назад

Can you lay a new lawn roll on top of the old one or does it need to be removed first?

@bandq 3 года назад

Hi, it's not something we would recommend, as it will prevent the new turf from rooting properly. Once a new roll of turf has been put down, you need to water the turf thoroughly, making sure the water soaks right the way through to the soil below because it's got to be moist enough for new roots to grow down. Hope this helps 😊
