We Create Beautiful Lawns

from Seed

Creating new lawns from seed can be very satisfying and will eventually create a fantastic quality lawn, often at a fraction of the price of turfing. We selectively choose the correct seed mixture cultivars which are the most suitable for your individual garden environment. This will be determined by what the lawn is going to be used for, how it is going to be maintained and your soil type.

 

The key to creating a successful lawn from seed is having a little patience for it to mature and establish once sown. This can range from 6 -12 months, but germination usually happens within 4-6 weeks providing there is moisture. We hold your hand through this process and always carry out the first mow, selective weed killer and fertiliser to ensure it is ready for you to nurture and enjoy for the future. Good soil preparation is essential when creating a new lawn from seed. We provide the very best skilled team and equipment to ensure soil preparation is carried out to the highest standard. Where limited access is an issue, we have specialised pedestrian equipment to ensure that soil preparation is carried out to a high standard before the seed is sown.

Mole infested lawn in need of rescue in Trowbridge

This old lawn was once part of a golf course, but with the old clubhouse now converted into a home the garden needed a new lease of life.  The lawn had suffered from extensive Mole and Vole damage over many years, resulting in an uneven lawn,  the only solution was to start again with a newly seeded lawn.  The existing vegetation was killed off prior to rotovation and our compact tractor with Blecavator was used to bury the stones and create a workable tilth.  The seed was drilled with a cultipack seed drill during late August with the first mow being carried out in October.  

New Forest Lawn revived with seed

This beautiful property on the edge of the New Forest near Ringwood required a new lawn, the old lawn had suffered from the removal of old trees and required importation of topsoil and levelling. First we killed off the old vegetation before relieving soil compaction with an excavator. The lawns were rotovated and stone buried with our tractor mounted Blecavator before 80 tonnes of premium top soil was imported to refine the surface. The final preparation was carried out with a powered Blec Stonerake before seeding Pro Master 50 lawn seed with a direct drill Blec Cultipack seed drill. We came back in the spring to carry out the first mow, feed and weed.

Modern Home Soil & Seeded lawn

A common problem with new-build homes is that many are left with builders rubble or poor soil in the garden not far from the surface making it impossible to grow a good lawn. This was the case on this property, so we excavated down 150mm and removed the unwanted rubble. New good quality top soil was imported and levelled before carrying out re-seeding. We carried out the first mow before handing over the new lawn to our client.

Small lawn Re-seed

This garden needed a new lawn makeover, so we killed off the old vegetation, rotovated, raked down the soil to create a fine smooth tilth and sowed Pro Master 50 fine lawn seed. We carried out the first mow and selective herbicide before handing it over to our client.
