Instant Turf Geelong

There is no simple answer to this question. It depends on a range of factors, including the traffic you expect on your lawn, level of shade or exposure to the sun, whether you want a low maintenance grass, climate, and your aesthetic preferences, just to name a few. The best instant turf is different for everyone. Speak with a friendly Lilydale staff member for expert advice.

The cost of buying and installing an instant lawn starts from a few hundred dollars to many thousands of dollars, depending on the lawn grass variety you choose and the size of the area. Give us a call about your ideas and budget, and see if we can’t help arrange a Sir Walter Turf Geelong lawn for you!

Freshly-laid turf, whether it’s Sir Walter Buffalo or other variety, requires watering a couple of times daily for the first few weeks while it is establishing itself. You’ll know your lawn is established when it’s difficult to pull a section of your lawn upwards, which means the roots are firmly implanted in the soil. 

Once your lawn has established itself, you can wind back the watering to suit your area’s climate.

New turf typically takes about 6 weeks to establish its root system properly. We advise you to avoid mowing and heavy traffic on lawns during this period. While this can be inconvenient compared to synthetic grass and synthetic turf, your patience will be rewarded with a beautiful emerald lawn in less than 2 months!
