Turf Laying

Our Turf Laying service is based in the North East & Northumberland, but we cover all areas.

Our turf allows you to enjoy your garden instantly without the lengthy process required of seeding your own lawn. The turf is harvested daily so we can ensure maximum freshness. Using the latest harvesting technology ensures less waste, and tidy uniformly sized rolls.

Turf Aftercare

Turf is a living plant and therefore perishable.

It needs to be cared for once laid to give the new root system the time and conditions to establish properly.

Find out more by visiting our aftercare page, and finding out what you can do to make the best of your freshly laid turf.

DIY SOS

The Big Build

GK Turfing were proud to lay a new lawn donating their time and materials to support a deserving family from Longframlington, featured on the BBC One series ‘DIY SOS: The Big Build’ as part of a life changing transformation to their home and outdoor space.

					I wanted an existing lawn lifted and a newlawn laid. The guys arrived on time and worked quickly and efficiently to remove the old lawn before starting to level and... read more sand the base. The new lawn was then laid quickly and the remainder of the area tidied. The whole job took a couple of hours. I can recommend GK Turfing for a fast professional service!

					Fantastic quality turf in terms of grass quality, regular thickness and width so it was very easy to lay. It was delivered within a few days of requesting the quotation... read more and the price was very competitive. We were patching in an area where we previously had paving and I did the work myself. I would have no hesitation using and recommending GK Turfing 👍. Thanks again

					This is our lawn 2 weeks in.  Still being watered but lovely. So flat.  Great grass.
Our lawn is a complex shape and the old turf had been killed... read more and was dry and dusty.
What a great job.  Old dead turf cleared and levelled.  New fantastic turf laid and all tidied up.  120sqm turf took an afternoon and the following morning.
Fantastic job. Brilliant team.  Really good price .
We cannot fault this work.
Just sorry we didn't ask them to do the front lawn too!
PS Comparable quote from a national company to kill and reseed was nearly 3x as much.

					This is the second time that I've used GK Turfing  and both times the company have given excellent results. I'm really impressed by the care and professionalism shown ... read more in the preparation of the site before any turf is lain which produces a first class lawn. I would definitely recommend .
