    New laid turf very patchy

    I had a new turf laid in September 2024 and did not cut the grass till November The grass was about a foot in height I hired a gardener to cut the grass first with the trimmer and then with the lawnmower Since then the turf has gone very patchy it looks as if at the patches the grass has been pressed and there is no sign of the grass growing there What is wrong with it? Can it be put right so that it looks like a nice neat proper lawn? Please advise what has to be done and how much will it cost? Thanking you in advance

    Turf gravel garden

    What is typically involved in converting a gravel garden (soil underneath) into a regular grass garden? How much would it cost to have done, assuming the garden is thirty-two square metres? Is it cheaper than getting artificial grass? How long does the process usually take? Is the quality of turf used hugely important? How do I know if the installer is using good quality turf?
