What do turf laying services include?

Are you looking for help to lay a new lawn for your home? Turf laying includes removal of old grass, laying of new turf, and giving advice on immediate and long-term maintenance of your new lawn. It doesn't matter whether you're planning on laying artificial turf during winter or summer. 


Whatever the season, Taskers can readily work with you for all your garden turf laying needs. For more information about turf services, here are more details:


Winter turf laying

It's a common misconception that grass installation during winter is a big no-no. On the contrary, there are many benefits to turf laying during this colder season of the year. For one, your turf has enough time to settle and grow roots before the arrival of springtime. Also, laying grass turf during winter means you won't need to water it as often and thus makes it easier to maintain.


Your winter turf fitting service starts with a Tasker measuring your lawn area and preparing the ground for new turf. They level your soil using a rake, and carefully remove any weeds, stones, roots, and other debris. Your Tasker then starts to layout each turf roll ensuring each end is laid out as flat as possible. The last step involves checking if the entire lawn is shaped together firmly with no unsightly gaps between the turf.


Summer turf laying

Summer is that time of the year where people spend as much time as possible outdoors enjoying their home garden or lawn. Even with warmer weather conditions, you can still lay turf during summer as long as you know the basics of proper turf maintenance. Since turf rolled up during summertime can quickly lose its quality, your Tasker immediately gets to work by preparing the ground for turfing using a specialised pre-turfing fertiliser.


They quickly layout and water your turf to keep the soil from drying out. Your Tasker also uses laying boards to help avoid walking on wet soil and damaging it before installation. Once the job is complete, your Tasker can give out some reminders, including constant watering every day for the next two weeks.


AstroTurf installation

If you prefer to install specific brands of artificial grass such as AstroTurf, you can also get help from Taskers for artificial grass installation. Similar to turf laying, the first step involves measuring your lawn area and then removing the existing surface. If you own a small lawn, this task can be completed by hand. For larger spaces, it's best to use a turf cutter.


Your Tasker covers the topsoil with a sand or stone base before they compact it using a vibrating roller or plate. Then, they carefully roll out your artificial grass in the direction of your house for a more natural look. Finally, your Tasker trims away any excess grass and brushes your entire lawn to complete your AstroTurf installation.

Lanscaping - spread 1m3 soil and lay 24m2 of turf

$400

New Farm QLD 4005, Australia

22nd Oct 2024

I am replacing the lawn at the rear of my house. The existing lawn has been smothered in plastic sheeting for several weeks and is dead. It will need to be raked off and carried to the front of the house for disposal. I will have 1m3 of soil and 24m2 of turf delivered to the front of my home. The soil will need to be carried in batches from the front of the house to the yard at the back of the house in batches using tubs provided (access along the side of the house is too narrow for a wheelbarrow and there is 1 step). In the back yard, the soil will need to be spread evenly over the lawn area. The turf will then need to be carried in rolls and laid carefully in rows on top of the soil, with ends staggered. I will then attend to watering myself. Time of the soil & turf delivery is yet to be confirmed, so commencement date/time is subject to change accordingly. Tools for job to be provided (sharp shovel/shears to cut lawn, flexi tubs, metal rake) or feel free to bring your own.

Dominic did a great job of replacing my lawn. He brought the tools required and kept at it until the job was done. He even offered to lower his rate when a friend of mine showed up to lend a hand. Very polite and good communication. Happy to recommend him to others.

Lay Astro Turf

$123

Bulimba QLD, Australia

20th Oct 2024

2 small spaces to be astro-turfed at our small townhouse. Looking for a professional finish with a quality product 30-50mm with realistic flecked look. I had raised a task but it just expired while I was waiting to arrange removal of palms out back. So please may contact if you were the tasker who had applied previously- I just can’t contact expired tasks. Rear area (2nd photo - with large planted retainer wall) - 5.7m x 1.8m. Note the palm trees are being removed today so will be gone. Front area (1st photo) - 5.5m x 1.8m Also some photos to show access thru from back to from to get old turf out - it’s a nice straight run with large sliding doors each side flowing out thru and open carport. Although there are 2 steps - it’s all hard floors so could put down some protecting matting and put a timber ramp up the 2 stairs. Hopefully this gives enough to get a good quote.

Godfrey was a committed and reliable worker always going the extra step to keeps his clients happy. A pleasure to deal and work with.

Need to level ground and place new synthetic turf. Ideally place drainage on edge of turf. Area is 4.7m x 3m and includes the area with the small trees. Small trees need to be removed as well as the small concrete kerb diving the teo areas. We can negotiate if you include materials or not. Budget is not accurate, just not sure how much this will cost.

Godfrey was everything every other review mentioned. Extremely good work, effort and profesionalism. He also gave me good advice and even came back for a second day to finish the job as I didn't properly tell him all the info he needed.
