How much soil do I need to lay my turf onto?

We recommend a minimum depth of 100mm (4"), ideally 150mm (6") of good quality topsoil. It is important to dig over or rotovate the soil to break up compaction as a well prepared soil will encourage deep, rapid rooting of your new turf.

Rolawn Turf & Lawn Seeding Topsoil provides a level surface and firm foundation required for laying turf. It is also blended with Rolawn GroRight® Lawn Establishment Fertiliser to help ensure a lawn gets off to the best possible start. Alternatively Rolawn Soil Improver can be used to enhance existing soil.
