Lawn Lifestyle

If you want a garden that changes with your needs, then starting off with lawn is one very smart way to begin. Laying a living carpet over your yard, allows you the flexibility of adding garden beds and trees and maybe a veggie garden if and when you decide to make changes.

Apart from being a great garden canvas, there are plenty of excellent reasons why lawn and gardens go so well together.

Why should we love lawns?

COST OF LAYING
– Outdoor entertaining areas and you need and can afford.
– Lawn is the lowest cost surface cover for our yard.
– The cost of installed turf per square metre is $30-$35, which is approximately a quarter of the cost of the next cheapest alternative, concrete.
– The fact that a newly turfed lawn invariably increases your property’s visual appeal and value makes it an obvious choice for landscapers and homeowners alike.

HEALTH

– Healthy lawn, healthy you. It’s True! A great lawn really is beneficial for your overall health.
