Turf

Please can anyone advise me on the price of about
15 metres of turf,thank you.

 

HI Tom

15 metre strip of turf?

or

15 square metres?

First work out the AREA you wish to cover (Ie. width x length)

 

Hi Melinda, sorry, 15 square metres approx.

 

It was £2.52 a roll in B&Q a couple of weeks ago. For about 1 sq mtr.

 

Focus DIY is £2.39 per m2. If you can find one near you.

And apparently 20% off delivery if you buy today.

Wickes are more expensive @£7 per m2 but from what Ive read on the site, their turf is the decent Rolawn Medallion stuff.

I've heard that the Rolawn Medallion stuff is really good.

In my previous house I used B&Q turf which was OK. I actually only paid 50p per roll as it was yellow (ish) but it soon greened up.

In my current house I turfed over some of the front garden using turf from a local farm which had just been cut and it was far far better than the B&Q turf.

 

I think it depends to a degree on how "fresh" is the turf you buy. I've bought quality turf before and it's been rubbish.

I've got mine from B&Q, there's no ryegrass in it, but I find out what day it's being delivered and call in late on that day.
Sometimes the stuff can be hanging around on a pallet for days. Can't do it any good.

 

Thank you for all your help,will have a trip to B and Q.
