Thanks Sarah

Is there a recommended minimum time between removing the old membrane and
putting down the new turf.

i.e. If I dig it this weekend, do I have to leave it for a month or two,
or
can I turf straight on to it

thanks

In your position I would not remove the membrane. It is there to prevent
weeds coming up through the gravel or turf. I would dig over only if you
feel it is not sufficiently level, put the membrane back and lay the turf on
it. Effectively you have been given some free membrane. Don't knock it.
You'll look a bit silly if you remove the membrane, dig over the ground,
turf it, and end up with loads of horsetails.
