How turf cost is estimated
Turf and topsoil are priced per square metre and bought with a 5% wastage allowance on top of your raw lawn area, to cover offcuts and edge trims. Ground preparation and labour, levelling, clearing weeds and old grass, and laying the new turf, is priced on your lawn's actual area, since that work doesn't scale with the extra material ordered. A flat delivery charge covers getting the turf to your door, usually within 24-48 hours of cutting for the best results. For an exact price, measure carefully (or have a supplier measure for you) and get a few quotes, turf grade, ground condition and regional labour rates all affect the final cost.
