    Cost of turfing lawn

    The side of my rear garden had a membrane and small stones. The membrane had worn down and weeds took over. Both have been removed ( albeit some small stones in soil) . The ground has been tilled and most weeds removed. Still needs to be made level. . I am trying to work out costs for a turfing option vs seeding. I would like quotes to include a breakdown of cost of turf and labour. The size of the area is approx 100m2. Lawn can be delivered easily to the front. There is side access to the rear garden . There is ample parking with no restrictions.
