So my 65m2 lawn is reall muddy. The drainage is poor. So got a landscaper up and he said it would need to be dug down 6 inches and gravel put in place. Then turfed. He said that would be the only way to solve my muddy lawn. Its muddy all over. I asked him about french drains but the said...

Hi all, My grass is muddy and sodden so i have decided its cheaper and easier to build a deck on it. So its a ground level deck. The dimensions are 6050x3050. Planning on putting in 15 of 100x100 posts postcreted in. 1. Is this overkill putting 15 posts in? 2. How do i minimise wood...

Thanks for your reply. I can get 600 stainless ones for £24 from screwfix. The problem is i need them for tomorrow lol

Hi all, What screws would you use on a fence? Its definitely No4 x 40mm i need. But unsure of which screws (I want to use screws and not nails). Its the screws that screw in the slats to the rail... So which is best to use bearing in mind i need 600 odd of them lol Cheers Robbieee

Hi all, I need to put a spaced picket fence up on an uneven slope. How do i do this? All the online stuff is for even slopes, just want a few pointers as i want the top level of slats to look "stepped down" and not uneven. Thanks Robbieee

Here are some pics: The garden from my bedroom window (some fencing still to be done!): The dead (or dying) patch: The gap in between the turf: These flowers have sprouted up, what are they??: [/img]

It was done professionally. He's a landscape gardener. Will take pics tomorrow :-)

He said it was common and that it wasnt much to worry about.
