Lawn Aftercare

After your new lawn has been laid, it is important to care for it accordingly to help it reach its full potential. Once the roots of the lawn have been established and have started to “knit” with the topsoil beneath it, the grass should not be left to grow for too long before an initial cutting.

If the grass grows too long too early, then sunlight may be prohibited from reaching the base of the grass roots, which may stump future growth of the turf.

We recommend that your lawn mower is set to the maximum height the first few times you mow the garden. This helps to achieve an even level across the lawn, without cutting it too aggressively whilst the roots of the turf may still be “taking hold”.
