Re: New lawn
Did you have to do a lot of preparation work with drainage and compacting the sub base?

Re: New lawn
Hi Chez,
No, we have 2 manhole covers in the yard. grass was layed on top of them and then cut out a section to allow the cover to be lifted should it need be.
The sub bsae is/was concrete andjust had to level it out in a few places with sand and cement so it was nice and flat
