Turfing & New Lawn Installation in Knutsford

& Surrounding Areas

A fresh, healthy lawn can completely transform the appearance of your garden. Whether you’re
replacing patchy, uneven grass or installing a brand new lawn in a newly landscaped space,
high quality turfing makes your garden look clean, vibrant, and instantly more appealing. At
Cheshire Landscape Gardener, we specialise in professional turf installation across Knutsford and
all surrounding areas within a 15 mile radius.
Why Choose Professional Turf Installation? Many homeowners attempt to lay turf themselves, but
without proper preparation, the results can fail quickly. We ensure your new lawn is long lasting,
healthy, and properly rooted by focusing on the essential groundwork that most DIY attempts miss.
A professionally installed lawn ensures:

  • Strong root development
  • Correct soil depth and nutrient balance
  • Level, smooth surfaces
  • Natural drainage that prevents waterlogging
  • A vibrant, green finish that lasts all year
    Our Turfing Process 1. Site Survey & Assessment
    We begin with a full inspection of the existing lawn area and discuss how you want the space to
    look and function.
  1. Ground Preparation
    The key to long lasting turf is proper preparation. We remove old grass, weeds, stones, and
    poor quality soil. We then re level and regrade the ground to create a smooth, even surface.
  2. Soil Conditioning
    We add fresh topsoil or loam where required to improve drainage and help roots establish quickly.
    This ensures your lawn stays green and healthy long-term.
  3. Professional Turf Laying
    We install high quality, locally sourced turf chosen for durability, colour, and density. Each roll is
    laid tightly, staggered for strength, and cut neatly around edges and borders.
  4. Watering, Rolling & Finishing
    Once laid, your lawn is rolled to ensure perfect contact with the soil. We then water it thoroughly
    and give you clear aftercare instructions to ensure rapid rooting.

    Turf Replacement for Tired or Damaged Lawns If your existing lawn is patchy, moss covered,

    the old grass, reset the levels, improve the soil, and install a healthy new lawn in just a single day
