ROTAVATING AND TURFING
Here at MCR we not only cut the grass but offer the complete lawn laying service, taking care of everything from turfing to rotavating.
Rotavating
Rotavating is one of the often-overlooked stages of lawn preparation. Don't skip it! Proper rotavating ensures that the earth below your new layer of turf is smooth, properly churned and primed to hold the new turf layer in place.
It is also a great method for aerating the soil in a vegetable garden before planting, loosening the earth, giving root vegetables room to grow into, mixing in organic matter, and levelling the soil, ready for the new season.
Turfing
As part of our gardening services in Rotherham, North Derbyshire and South Yorkshire, we offer a full turfing service. You can choose from a range of turf types and grass types, depending on the light conditions, for example, and then we will then carefully lay it, so that it can grow in an even way. This service is perfect for landscape gardens, new-build properties and play areas.
