If you can afford to turf, it's quicker and around now, if the rain is
falling wherever you live, is a good time. So is spring as the ground
starts to warm up. Obviously, drought conditions are not ideal. The ground
must be well prepared and you can't walk on the turf for around 3 weeks. I
turfed a lawn in my previous house and it was wonderful and a speedy
solution. But getting a good supplier is paramount, so asking here and in
your area would be a good idea.
