Luxury Lawn

The original lawn was on solid clay which made the lawn inhospitable during wet periods and during winter and spring months. The idea was to remove a layer of clay and replace with a high quality USGA grade sand allowing access to the lawn all year round. This comes with positives and negatives. Sandy soil does not retain nutrients therefore requires more feeding and requires more regular watering but with that grasses thrive in sandy soils and one is able to acheive a year round accessible and beautiful lawn. (14th May 2026) This is approximately five weeks after the grass seed was first sown (6th April 2026)

Seasonal Inaccessibility

From Winter to late Spring the lawn was like a skid bath. In winter that may not matter too much but in spring everyone wants to access to their lawns. Die back of grass occurs, particularly in the colder months as the plant does not like a soggy environment.
