The challenge
The two areas had different shapes and access, but still needed to feel like one continuous lawn. The soil had to be prepared so the turf met the path, fence and nearby edges neatly throughout.
Creating the new lawn
What we did and how it came together
What we did
- Prepare the front and side lawn areas
- Shape the soil beside paths, edges and the fence
- Lay natural turf across both connected spaces
- Water the turf after installation
How it came together
- 01Clear and prepare both lawn areas
- 02Smooth the soil around the nearby paths and edges
- 03Lay the turf from the open lawn through the side yard
- 04Check the joins, trim the edges and water the full area
