I'll be laying turf on Saturday for the first time. I'm doing the sensible thing and removing the top 3 inches of old soil and replacing it with topsoil. The old soil is full of stones and isn't very nice overall.
I'll then be leveling the topsoil and laying the turf.
Now, can anyone in the know please suggest things that I should or shouldn't be doing! Like, do I need to compact the topsoil with a roller? What's the best way to lay turf? How long before we can walk on it? etc etc.
Your suggestions will be greatfully received! I want to make sure my grass is the best in the neighbourhood!
