Laying Turf During the Winter Months
Now the temperatures are beginning to drop, we often receive calls asking if it’s ok to lay turf during the winter months. The answer is always YES, as long as there isn’t a hard frost predicted before or after you lay your turf.
The turf has ample time to root deeply and establish itself before the arrival of spring, preparing it for active growth and use.
Cooler temperatures decrease the stress on newly laid turf, allowing it to adapt and grow without the extreme heat that can occur in summer.
Autumn and winter can be a great time to lay new turf because it won’t be used as much as if you laid it in the spring or summer.
Plus you probably won’t need to water it as much either. So good news all round!
All of our turf we supply is grown for local gardens in Essex and Suffolk ensuring it is perfectly suited for your soil and will give you a beautiful new lawn.
