The property
The lawn runs between a block boundary wall and an existing path. Posts and changes in the path edge create several small areas where the turf needs to fit closely.

The key takeaway
Even a small side lawn benefits from careful preparation and a tidy fit around paths and posts. The turf variety and the work underneath both matter.
Caring for the new lawn
Check moisture across the full strip, particularly beside the wall and path, and keep regular traffic off while the turf takes root.
