I am going to replace the lawn(will probably wait till next spring)
but was wondering if i removed the current lawn now, dug out and laid
the drainage channels and then relaid with topsoil and covered with a
permeable membrane will this give me the best start to laying the lawn
next year or should i just do it all at once
Actually, fall is the best time to start a new lawn. That way it has the winter
rains to help get the roots extablished.

actually i live in north west england and if i was to lay a lawn now it would be dead by spring. Fall may be best in america but definately not here in 'sunny' manchester.
Thanks for the reply
