Default Cost of re-turfing a lawn

Going on what we paid yesterday to have some work done in the garden, that

Just to get the job done and for me not to do it :-))

ps as an afterthought, why not concrete it all and paint it green? No
mowing, quick wash down :-))


Nice idea, but I'd never get agreement on that from SWMBO

Do you really think that's a good price? I'm figuring £600 for the
turf, £100 for sand, seed and weed killer. That's still £1300 for 2
days work. Which is damn good money by my reckoning.
