Heavy clay is the biggest challenge for lawns in much of Northampton. It compacts, drains slowly and bakes hard in summer, so a lawn laid straight onto it rarely thrives.
We break up the ground by rotavating, add screened topsoil to create a proper root zone, then level, firm, rake and feed before laying premium turf. We’re about 25 minutes away along the A45.
Areas we cover: Northampton, Duston, Kingsthorpe, Abington, Weston Favell, Moulton, Wootton, Upton and Overstone
Clay holds water in winter and cracks in summer. Rotavating and adding topsoil gives the turf a better root zone and helps drainage.
Terraced gardens can be narrow and partly shaded. We’ll talk you through turf that copes with shade, or suggest a lawn and patio mix.
Turf and topsoil can come in by hand through the rear alley or jitty, so nothing needs to come through your house.
Lawns at Upton, Wootton and Overstone Leys are often laid on thin soil over compacted ground. We strip, cultivate and topsoil before re-turfing.
