time frame for laying a new lawn

Hi all

I'm laying a new lawn and creating new bedding borders next week and wondered how long it would take from start to finish? I'll be tackling this project on my own and as you have probably guessed I have never laid a lawn before but am up for the challenge.

The size of the lawn is 26sqm and the bedding border surrounding it is 80cm width and 18 meters in length.

I am about to order 6tons of top soil for the lawn and 3 tons of Border Black Screened Top soil, the space in which the lawn will be laid is covered in pebbles and weeds so this will have to be cleared, I have a week off work so I'm hoping this will be enough time to get it all sorted out, if you have any suggestion I'd be very happy to hear from you.

Thank you
