Great job! a lot of hard work went in on this from prepping your lawn, to overseeding, and leveling. After about 12 days once you did this you'll appreciate all that hard work you did from making a good lawn you already had into the best looking lawn on the block.

Hi, love your vids and a lot. After scarifying did you overseed, add topsoil and seed again on top. Thanks

Great job! Congratulations. What type of soil do you have below those layers of sand?

Hi, great video. Which setting did you use on the spreader for the fertiliser, was it 27? Thanks

Roller before watering the lawn.it helps reduce the pick-up(sticking) of seed and soil on the roller.

Nice attempt, but...if you want a golf course level lawn do what golf courses do. Use a 1mm or 2mm screened course sand and use quite a bit more than this guy. I've leveled many dozens of lawns, some using up to 20 tons of sand. Using a leveling product with anything but sand is counter productive. The organic matter will break down and you'll have an uneven lawn again. After you level it, use a shop broom to work the sand down. Put down a good fertilizer to force the grass to grow threw the sand. Unfortunately you really need to pick leveling or over seeding.

Great tips and ideas how would you combat a low spot that slopes down to as much as an inch towards the back of a garden? Also unrelated to this video but my new grass is 10 months old and a little patchy with light spots I fertilised the grass with a 10-2-1.7 feed and weed/moss killer with 8% soluble iron sorry to burden you on this video. Your videosare absolutely brilliant and informative!

Do you have a recommendation for a roller? I couldn't see one list in the comments but I saw you using one in the video.

Hi Mate, once the seed are starting to grow . would you continue to water long after so they get a real good root on them or not worry to much? thanks, Dave.

Cool job! Will the rain wash out the sand thus destroying efforts to level the ground? In this case what are the alternatives and whether leveling the surface with soil will be more efficient (but also more costly)?

Great video! Was also wondering what the song was that plays at the very end? Best of luck with it all 👍🏻

Hello, i have a lawn which is uneven and and has some deep craters. We moved in this new build in December and the builder laid turf. can i use the same technique to fill those holes and dead patches? Secondly, would a roller help even out the existing lawn.

Great Video, loved your work. Mine is a new built property with poor soil quality, is also uneven surface. Seen products you selling on your site, there are two different types. Will you suggest top-soil or 70/30 for me? Thanks

@GardenLawncareGuy

3 жыл бұрын

If you are building up larger levels topsoil can be best to establish a level in the first place it can also be easier to grow seed in if you can't stay ontop of your Watering. If the garden is already mostly level the 70/30 is alot easier to spread and level fine spots out, more attention needed for Watering if you are overseeding too

Would you say every seed needs to be covered? I used compost right at the end to retain moisture, but didn't manage to cover 100%. Should I go out on day 2 to cover the rest?
