To avoid drainage issues, ensure the soil gradient slopes away from paths and buildings.
When preparing, be sure your soil type is suitable for your new lawn and ensure you have enough soil – at least 50mm to 100mm deep – before laying.

Simple tips to make laying easier.
It is essential to lay your new lawn as soon as it arrives.
First lightly moisten the soil and then begin installing following the longest straight line such as a fence or paver.
Lay turf in a brick pattern (stagger joins) ensuring that each join is tightly bound together with no overlapping. To trim corners use a shovel or large sharp knife. Once your new lawn is completely laid, use a roller to ensure soil to turf contact.

Tips to get the best out of your lawn
It is essential you undertake measures to keep your new lawn healthy.
The highest requirement for watering a new lawn is in the first week.
Watering your new lawn can then be reduced as the following week’s progress and the root system has established.
New lawns which are laid during the heat of summer require the most water – up to 4 times a day in the first week.
In warmer weather (high 20°s to early 30°s Celsius) new lawn needs to be watered less frequently – 3 times a day.
If laid in cooler weather the new lawn requires less water again – as low as 1 – 2 watering’s a day
During cool rainy weather, no extra watering of the new lawn is required in addition to what it is already being naturally received from the rain.
If you lay your new lawn in cooler conditions – just remember it will take a bit longer to establish – so be patient!
