Timelapse lawn renovation in a shady spot

This lawn renovation includes scarifying heavily, overseeding and topdressing. The garden is in a partially shaded area and struggles with leaves each winter.
When I arrived the customer had removed a number of patio slabs and asked me to seed under those. I hadn't anticipated this, so I did the best I could with what I had brought. Otherwise, I would have brought some additional topsoil in to bring the soil level up a little bit.
In this video, I mention using a Wolf Garten hand scarifying rake and also a compost spreader.
You can get the rake head here: amzn.to/3iReFMN and handle here: amzn.to/3tV9Jgr (these come with a 10-year warranty)
You can get the compost spreader here: www.gardenimports.co.uk/produ...
Any questions? Please comment below and Ill do my best to answer

Good to see the compost lasting longer that the previous superfine compost material! Many thanks

Hi, definitely a shaded mix. I would overseed the whole lawn so it all blends in too... even so, you may still get issues as grass does need 3 hours minimum of direct sun to thrive. There are several varieties Ive not tried that claim to work extremely well but havent tried yet.. The only shade mix Ive tried is the hurrels HM5 mix

Hi all lawns can be saved 😊. That's the good news. Sometimes the simple things make such a big difference.

Hi.. So the more steps done the better the result.. Heavy rain or strong winds can blow or move seeds around.. You will get some germination though...

Hi I honestly dont count the seeds.. I just use a bulk bag and put on what's needed. As for compost it was between 4 and 6 I think.. 40 litre bags

Can you give an idea of how much you charge for this please? And any reason you chose to seed it instead of turf? Thanks
@LawnRight
@LawnRight 2 года назад
Hi all companies charge differently but for reference it was around half days work so it depends on material cost plus what company wants to earn. If you were getting someone in it would be at least £150.. went for seed due to cost saving. Typically a fraction of turfing cost. I've read and believe turfers charge around £10 to £15 a square metre

I think when I move in if council turf it again I will ask permission to put a retaining wall in to level garden and stop rain & mud to covering the patio I think they must of laid it all on rubble for the whole lawn to be dead I will also ask for a soil test to see why there’s no growth as show home on ends lawn is lush & green

Hi Shaun I've just scalified my lawn (-5) one pass. Should I put A1 Spring fertiliser down now or put seed now with top dressing with my Landzie?
@LawnRight
@LawnRight Год назад
Hi John, if it's looking like theres a few obvious bare spots then it would pay to put some seed down and a covering of soil of compost but if it's literally just "thinner" everywhere you can probably just get away without seeding and pop some fertiliser on.. if you do seed I would probably leave the a1 fert for a month, or if any just a very light dose on. Thanks

Great Video mate. How much would you roughly charge for this, if you don't mind me asking. My garden is a similar size, we moved in this time last year and the grass has turned into a mud swamp over the winter period. I'm quite a practical guy as a result of my trade but I'm useless when it comes to sewing a lawn !
@LawnRight

Depending on who is doing it, could be as little as £150 to maybe £300 other extras could be additional soil for example.. thanks!

Is it safe to use weed killer before putting garden soil and then planting frog grass?
@LawnRight
@LawnRight Год назад
Hi as with any herbicide you are best waiting till it's no longer in the ground residually. here in the Uk this period is typically at least 4 to 6 weeks... BUT if you were doing a "total kill" with Roundup for example you could reduce the time of waiting to 2 to 3 weeks Remember that frog grass typically doesn't really do well if it is in shade AND has a lot of heavy foot traffic (jjust something to bear in mind)

I apologize for ignorance but I’m trying to finally have a decent yard but I’m confused on if I should just overseed or start completely over. I’m also confused on aeration, tilling or dethatching. Can you please help me out
@LawnRight
@LawnRight Год назад
Hi.. it all depends what you're starting with.. if you throw seeds onto earth or moss or old grass chances are it wont do very well . So often we dethatch or scarifyto create grooved in the soil..then when you throw seeds they can touch soil and stand a better chance of success..I usually also cover them with a thin layer of compost or topsoil to stop birds and wind moving them around.. finally keep them damp for a few weeks.. aeration helps if it hard and compacted... tilling isnt usually needed
