Soil in Sheffield: what we prepare for
Most of the city is on Coal Measures, giving heavy, often stony clay soils. On steep plots the topsoil can be thin, so adding soil helps the turf root firmly.
Typical new-build gardens in Sheffield
Expect slopes, retaining walls and stepped gardens. Turf works well on gentle slopes and helps stop soil washing away.
In a city of hills, levels are everything, and the quote will explain how your slope is handled.
Timing your lawn in Sheffield
