Why Turf  
Is a turf lawn less work?  
Yes and No.  A cultivated lawn requires less work than a seeded lawn but it depends on what standard of care you wish to lavish on it.  A turf lawn, when installed is ready for use within a few days whereas a seeded lawn requires months, possibly years of nurturing to reach maturity.Ourturf is grown under expert supervision from top quality grass seed blends and is rapidly ready for use.  When you buy Stewarts turf you buy the time we’ve taken to grow it.

After installation just water, mow regularly and fertilise your turf lawn as needed and it will remain a healthy green carpet of grass for years and years.

Can turf withstand heavy usage? Is turf a good investment?
Certainly!  Turf establishes itself quickly.   In a couple of weeks it is ready for full use.  It creates the perfect surface for lawn games and family outdoor living or just simply providing a visual backdrop to your garden. With today’s greatly improved grass seeds, turf is chosen for parks, golf courses, sports grounds as well as residential homes and business parks. Yes - it’s the only way to go - from bare soil to lush green lawn in just hours.  Yet, it is relatively inexpensive to use compared to virtually all other surfaces and considering what has gone into its cultivation.  In the few hours it will take to lay your turf lawn your property value will increase significantly and even more in aesthetic value.
When can I lay a turf lawn? How will turf effect our environment?
Turf has revolutionised the lawn business!  You can lay a turf lawn any time during the year when the ground can be worked or tilled. However, it is best to avoid periods of extreme weather, whether it is wet, dry or frozen.  There is no need to wait for the right season to lay your new lawn. With today’s ecological concerns, many more people are considering turf lawns for the environmental benefits.  Turf cools and cleans the atmosphere by reflecting the suns heat, absorbs noises, carbon dioxide and other harmful pollutants.  It releases valuable oxygen and moisture into the air we breathe.  As it grows, turf silently contributes to a healthier environment.
