Thanks for the advice. I have contacted a couple of lawn specialists to try and get a report done and will get some photos as you said.
You could have easily remedied the contour problem by applying a top dressing or if far too low lift the areas where it is low & build up with top soil,if drainage was a problem which I suspect it was they should have mixed the sand with top soil in a 70/30 mix or even better put in a layer of stones top soil on top & then level off in preparation for laying turf! The price you paid doesn't seem to be excessive for supplying & laying turf (what was the size of the lawn replaced? Also was it a good quality turf ?)

Cheers
