As we come to the end of summer and the flowerbeds within the garden begin to lose their colour, whilst the leaves on the trees start to turn golden brown and crisp, ready to fall as we approach Autumn; many gardeners will be looking to lay new turf Richmond to ensure that it’s settled perfectly and is a beautiful shade of green come Spring 2012. To give your garden and lawn the perfect start, here at Royce Turf we’re able to provide gardeners with the perfect turf for their surroundings.

Since the late 1980s our team here at Royce Turf have been providing gardeners within Richmond and surrounding areas with a range of quality turf; and through our experience within the industry we’re able to provide you with the perfect turf for your garden.

Some of the turf which we’re able to supply which is perfect for family lawns, includes:

•    Regal – Perhaps our bestselling turf, the Regal is perfect for back gardens as it roots quickly and can handle wear and tear. The Regal turf also has a nice shade of green, ensuring that your garden looks spectacular year round.

•    Dominion – Although the Dominion is our budget turf, it’s still considerably better than many seeded lawns within the area. We’d recommend using our Dominion turf where quantity is your main priority.

Our top tip before you opt to buy some turf is to pay attention to the soil within your garden and try to buy turf Epsom to lay during the Autumn months as the soil will still be warm and moist, plus the turf will receive the regular watering it requires from the traditional autumn rainfall. It’s also advisable to lay the turf once all heavy garden maintenance, such as tree pruning by tree surgeons Cambridge has been carried out, to prevent unnecessary damage.

However much turf Richmond you need and whatever you use your garden for, our team here at Royce Turf will be able to provide you with the perfect lawn at a competitive price. If you’d like more information or turf advice, please don’t hesitate to contact us via 01932 860760.

Maintaining a healthy lawn can be difficult, especially when you consider how unpredictable the British weather is. One minute it is glorious sunshine, the next the heavens have opened and the rain is literally pouring down. If your garden doesn’t have a good drainage or irrigation system in place, then you may find that your once healthy lawn begins to deteriorate considerably. At Royce Turf we understand the effects that too little or too much rain can have on your garden, and as such provide the essential equipment for irrigation and drainage Guildford to keep you lawn in a good condition.

Irrigation Equipment

If you are struggling to maintain a green, then Royce Turf may have the answer. We have an array of irrigation equipment specifically designed to rejuvenate a tired and dried out area of grass.

Another good function which is incorporated in all of our irrigation systems is rain sensors. It is useless having an irrigation Richmond system that is on while it is raining, as all this does it cause an influx of excess water on the ground, as well as produce waste water.

At the moment, we do seem to be having a lot of rain, and if you do not have a drainage system in place this can turn your lawn into a damp and water clogged area. Not only does this affect how you use the area, it also means that garden equipment Northampton can’t be used on it either. Here at Royce Turf, we have effective methods and equipment to help you with your predicament.

Another area of the garden which we here at Royce Turf appreciate requires some TLC, especially in the next few weeks, is the turf Richmond.

During the run up to the warm weather and throughout this period, your lawn turf Guildford will fortunately only need small amounts of care and attention if you’ve done your garden maintenance Windsor throughout autumn and winter. The majority of this care is ensuring that it’s well watered during any prolonged dry periods we’ll experience, and to also regularly cut it down to an acceptable size for your garden, to ensure that it continues to grow strong and healthy.

2)    Once the turf has been laid you’ll need to water it morning and night, until the roots have taken as this will ensure a luscious green lawn throughout summer.

As keen sport spectators will notice, the playing fields at grounds across the country, from Old Trafford to Lords and from Wimbledon through to Twickenham, are well cared for before, during and after play to ensure it continues to look spectacular. There’s no reason why your back garden, months after you’ve laid turf Richmond cannot look as fantastic, so long as you provide the area with the right level of aftercare, as we here at Royce Turf explain.

After spending the winter months pruning your garden and laying new turf, you’ll no doubt be looking forward to the start of spring so that you can go out and enjoy the fruits of your labour. However, as any keen green fingered gardener will testify, the hard work and labour doesn’t stop once your turf has taken. Instead through each season it’s vital you carry out various aspects of turf aftercare; the main ones are listed below.

Watering:

There will be some gardeners who rely on the rain to provide water for the garden grass. However, when the turf is first laid or during hot spells, it’s important to regularly provide your lawn with a healthy dose of water.

The watering of turf, especially newly laid turf is vital as it provides nutrients to the roots, which in-turn helps the grass to grow and take – however be careful not to over or underwater, as this can lead to the lawn either suffocating or dying.

Mowing:

There are no set rules as to how often you should mow your lawn, as this is all a matter of preference and you cannot damage mowing your lawn by mowing it every day. However, it’s worth noting that if your grass becomes too short it becomes liable to being affected by weeds or damage from the sun.

Providing your property with the perfect turf Richmond is a labour of love, which requires plenty of aftercare – watering and mowing being just two of the things you need to take into consideration. If you’d like more information about how to look after your turf, then please contact us here at Royce Turf.

For those green-fingered ones amongst us, the wet winter months we’ve endured can be a frustrating time as it’s harder to get out to prune the trees and keep on top of the flowerbeds. It’s also likely that during the wet weather your once luscious lawn will have bore the brunt and became damaged in one way or another. If this is the case, then digging the current lawn up and replacing it could be the ideal solution – especially as it will give you the opportunity to reshape your garden to a new design. But which method do you choose – seeding the lawn or buying pre-grown turf Richmond?

Here at Royce Turf, we’re specialists in providing quality turf which is suitable for various locations and weather conditions. However, we also appreciate the satisfactory feeling you get when you sow your own seeds, and watch the lawn take shape. So we’ve compiled this simple guide to the benefits of each.

Seed:

There’s no denying that sowing a lawn via seed is a more time consuming method – depending on the weather, it’ll take roughly a week for the shoots to show, however the lawn won’t be ready for a couple of months. Sowing seed will also require more groundwork preparation.

Seed is a cheaper alternative to laying a lawn and it can be laid in harsh conditions and in those awkward areas, where turf can’t, making it ideal for small areas of repair.

Turf:

Unlike seed, turf is a quick way to get the perfect lawn. Once it’s been laid, the edges trimmed and watered, it’s ready for use – and all of this can be done within an afternoon. Laying turf from us at Royce Turf also requires little groundwork and can be done within any weather conditions, making it a perfect choice for this time of year.

Here at Royce Turf, we have a wide range of turf Richmond which is ideal if you want to ensure that your lawn is ready from the moment that spring arrives. Our turf is available for either collection or delivery and promises to be the ideal finishing touch to any garden.
