Re-turfing a lawn
 

My front lawn needs totally replacing due to moss and weed. It is 17sq m and
I have been quoted £300. Is this a realistic figure? The guy reckons he can
do without a turf cutter and rotavator and just a few bags of topsoil will
be required for levelling. Wish I didn't have this damned slipped disc.

If you have moss, then it is probably because the soil is too damp, and
your new lawn will also get moss unless you sort out the drainage. It
doesn't sound as if your guy is planning to do that.
