Lawn Top Dressing FAQ

Useful answers before you request a property-specific quote.

Material depends on turf, existing soil and the objective. The team assesses whether sand, soil or a blended material is appropriate before quoting.

It is best for controlled surface improvement. Deep depressions, structural drainage or major grade changes may require separate earthworks.

The dressing is spread in a controlled layer so healthy leaf remains able to photosynthesise and grow through.

Aeration can help material enter a compacted profile, but it is recommended only where soil condition and timing make the combination useful.
