Turfing, Done Properly
This Whitecraig garden was ready for a fresh start. We stripped out the tired old lawn, prepped the ground and laid 165m² of fresh turf. What a difference a day makes.

“Very professional service. Had a new lawn installed a few weeks ago and am very happy with the results. The communication throughout was excellent and everything happened like clockwork without any delays or glitches. The service also includes lawn treatment for a year. Would highly recommend them.”

This East Calder garden came with a leftover pile from the previous landscapers who laid the paving, and a lawn shape that didn't make the most of the space. We cleared the spoil, dug the lawn a better shape, brought in our usual rootzone as a subbase and laid fresh turf. Another happy client.
