Edinburgh's Charlotte Square and Princes Street Gardens rejuvenated with Rolawn Medallion turf

Rolawn’s Medallion Turfmaster 1300 rolls have been used as part of a major restoration programme at two of Edinburgh’s most famous city centre gardens.

Edinburgh City Council appointed specialist contractor Sportsmasters UK Ltd to undertake the project to re-turf Princes Street Gardens, the city’s best known park which lies beneath the castle and Charlotte Square, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. These two popular sites form a key role in Edinburgh city life, hosting various events, concerts and festivals.

Gavin Brown, Managing Director, Sportsmasters UK Ltd commented “Vital to the success of this high profile project is turf quality which meets the exacting standards demanded by our client, turf rolls that are efficient and easy to lay, and a delivery service that can cope with such a large project in a heavily populated major city centre. We selected Rolawn and their Medallion turfmaster rolls because they meet all of these requirements and more. The turf quality is excellent, logistical planning is faultless and we are more than confident the gardens will look fantastic for both residents and visitors alike.”

Important update: Temporary 6.5% surcharge effective 7 April 

At Rolawn, we are committed to maintaining the high standards of quality and service our customers expect, so we want to be open with our customers about a change that will affect pricing from Tuesday 7th April. 

This decision has been taken in response to disruption to energy supplies, which has led to significant increases in wholesale prices, affecting not only fuel and fertiliser but also costs throughout our wider supply chain. As a business that relies heavily on fuel for both transport and operations, these sustained cost pressures have become increasingly difficult to absorb.  

While we have worked hard to mitigate the impact, the scale and pace of recent price increases have now exceeded what we can sustain internally, and we therefore need to recover a proportion of these externally driven increases. 

From Tuesday 7th April, a temporary 6.5% surcharge will apply to all products.  

We know that any increase in price is frustrating, particularly at a time when many businesses and households are already feeling under pressure. That is why we want to be clear that this is not a decision we have made lightly, and not one we wanted to make. It has been introduced solely to help offset unavoidable cost inflation and allow us to continue delivering the quality, reliability and service standards associated with Rolawn. 

We will continue to monitor market conditions closely and will review this surcharge as soon as circumstances allow, providing reasonable notice of any changes. We recognise that any price increase is unwelcome, but this step is necessary to ensure the continuity and reliability of our operations during a period of ongoing uncertainty. 

We remain committed to providing the quality, reliability and service standards you expect from Rolawn, and we truly appreciate your understanding and continued support. 

If you have any questions, please contact our customer support team who will be happy to help.
