Mr Barton from Runcorn contacted us via e mail he requested a quote for his garden to be turfed. Once we had chatted with Mr Barton, he explained that he currently had an area that had once been a decorative paved area with a sun dial in the middle that was now shall we say tired and looked in need of repair. Mr Barton wanted to replace this area with a circular lawn. We suggested sending one of our team round to have a look at the area and advise Mr Barton on what we could do with the area for him. Upon arrival we knew what Mr Barton meant by looking tired and in need of repair. The garden really needed an injection of colour to lift its drab vibe. The existing flags would need removing and the right amount of earth removed to create drainage underneath the lawn. Mr Barton wanted to keep the sun dial in place as it has sentimental value to him so we suggested leaving it exactly where it was as the lawn would give the sundial a whole new lease of life. We drew up a quote for Mr Barton based on the conversation we had had with him whilst stood in his garden. His quote included the removal of the flags the installation of the new lawn and the reinstallation of the sun dial.
Mr Barton was more than happy with the quote and works started the very next week. The full Install only took one day and thankfully the weather was great. The first job was to take out and protect the sun dial. And then the removal of the flags took place. Once the area was dug out and the hardcore put in the whole area was levelled and the base for the sundial was put down we were then ready for the turf to go down. Once the turf was rolled out Mr Barton could get a feel for how the injection of colour was going to lift his garden and he as thrilled. On the day of the install the sun was really shinning, after a few days the weather turned and we had a few grey drizzly days. Mr Barton rang us during that time to say he couldn’t believe the difference the grass made especially on those days, his garden looked so much brighter and more appealing.
Once the grass was all cut in and edges fixed down it was time for the piece de resistance, we power washed the sun dial for Mr Barton and placed it on the base we created in the centre of the lawn. It really did look lovely and Mr Barton couldn’t thank the team enough.
