Turfing & Reseeding - professional turfing & reseeding services by Connaught Tree Care across the West of Ireland
Overview

What we do

Irish lawns face a constant battle with rain, shade and heavy clay soil, which is why so many gardens end up patchy, mossy and worn. We fix that properly. Our team prepares the ground to give turf the best possible start, then lays quality Irish-grown turf or reseeds with grass seed suited to our damp climate. Whether you need a complete new lawn or a targeted repair, we handle every stage from start to finish. The result is a dense, green lawn that can handle the Irish weather and family life alike.

Full lawn turfing

We strip back the old surface, prepare the soil and lay fresh Irish turf for an instant, even lawn.

Lawn reseeding

We renovate tired grass with quality seed mixes chosen for our wet, mild climate.

Patch repairs and moss treatment

We repair bare patches, treat moss and restore problem areas without replacing the whole lawn.

Soil preparation and levelling

We cultivate, level and improve drainage so new turf and seed establish quickly and last.

Pricing note: Turf typically costs €8-€12 per square metre laid, depending on soil preparation. Reseeding is cheaper but takes longer to establish.

FAQ

Frequently asked

How much does it cost to have a lawn turfed?
As a guide, laying Irish turf costs around €8 to €12 per square metre supplied and laid, depending on access and the preparation needed. We always provide a fixed, no-obligation quote before we start.
Is it better to turf or reseed a lawn?
Turf gives an instant finish, while reseeding is more economical for larger areas and repairs. We will advise on which suits your garden, your budget and how quickly you want the lawn usable.
When is the best time to lay turf or sow grass seed in Ireland?
The main season runs from early spring through to late autumn. Sowing in September or early spring suits the cool, damp conditions grass seed loves here, while turf can be laid successfully for most of the year.
How long before I can walk on a newly turfed lawn?
You can usually use the lawn lightly after two to three weeks, once the roots have knitted into the soil. We will leave you with simple aftercare steps to help it settle in.
Will you clear away the old lawn and weeds first?
Yes. We strip back the existing surface, treat weeds and improve the soil before laying turf or sowing seed, so your new lawn starts clean and weed-free.
Do you offer aftercare or maintenance visits?
We include aftercare guidance with every lawn and can arrange follow-up feeding, moss treatment and seasonal maintenance if you would like us to keep it looking its best.
