Conflicting advice on levelling and turfing my lawn.
Hi all
I have a garden that is about 20' by 35'. I have recently turned it with a rotorvator and have invited 3 different quotes. All 3 have said diferent things and quoted different prices. Here are some facts:
The garden slopes down from the back towards the house. The incline is not that great (A football would probably not roll down it)
Of the first quote I had, the gardener told me:
"You'll need about 3 ton of top soil to level it off. Then we'll put top quality turf down". I know this guy as a freind and he seems very nice and honest. Price is £550
2nd firm told me "You'll need a skip to get rid of a lot of that soil so we can get it level before we turf it". Price £350
3rd Guy (one man band) "It'll be £250 all in"
Why the difference in price?
Why does 1 firm want to add soil, and 1 take it away in a skip.
Please help. I'm confused.
