  1. How to Lay Turf A Quick Guide by Rukeri www.rukeri.com

  2. Prepare your ground • Preparation is key • Remove all existing grass • Work soil – to a depth of 15 centimetres • Remove all stones, twigs and debris • Level the area, taking care not to flatten soil • Buy turf base if unable to get required depth of workable soil www.rukeri.com

  3. Ordering & Storing Turf • Always order fresh turf – easier to work with and roots quickly! We recommend using within 24 hours. • Arrange for turf to be delivered on day of use • Store rolls of turf out of direct sunlight until you’re ready to use them www.rukeri.com

  4. Laying your turf • Dampen area before starting • Start from a straight edge and lay one roll at a time • Make sure each roll touches earth underneath • Work in strips, similar pattern to brick work • Tuck each roll in as close as possible • Cut any surplus carefully to desired length www.rukeri.com

  5. After Care – Maintaining turf • Water your turf in as soon as it has been put down • Keep the area damp until it has rooted properly (check by gently lifting a patch of turf) • Do not over water – if it has rained overnight check dampness • Water in early morning or evening to allow the water to penetrate root system www.rukeri.com

  6. Remember! • Turf is lots of living organisms. The less stress placed on it the better. • Choose turf that has a well knitted root system • Good quality turf should not break or crumble • Always work with the freshest turf possible. It makes the job easier and gives your new grass the best start • Within 28 days you will have a fully established lawn. Enjoy! www.rukeri.com
