Customer FAQ

Can I lay new turf or repair my lawn in summer?

Yes, but extra care is needed in hot, dry weather. Summer is suitable for turfing and lawn repairs as long as the area is kept well-watered. Use a rootzone or topsoil base to help retain moisture and encourage healthy root establishment.

Is it safe to use compost in high temperatures?

Absolutely. Compost is ideal for summer use—it provides a slow release of nutrients during the peak growing season. Apply around the base of plants or mix into soil to support healthy growth through warm, active periods.

Will mulch help my garden during a heatwave?

Yes. Bark mulch is excellent for summer—when applied around plants, it helps retain soil moisture, reduce evaporation, and suppress weeds. It also helps regulate soil temperature, protecting roots during hot spells.

What’s the best way to use topsoil in summer?

Topsoil is great for topping up beds, levelling lawn areas, or preparing ground for planting. In summer, apply in the cooler parts of the day, keep it lightly watered if left uncovered, and avoid disturbing established plant roots during hot periods.

How much product do I need for summer projects?

One 0.75m³ bulk bag typically covers 10–12m² at a depth of 5–7.5cm. For lighter applications like lawn dressing or surface topping, it may cover a larger area. If you’re unsure, our team can help calculate exactly what you need based on your project.

Excellent product at a sensible price from a local supplier. Staff are friendly and willing to help: I asked if just one bag of topsoil could be delivered quickly and it arrived next day! Great service.

Smooth execution of the transaction and delivery. Very helpful phone call and conversation. Ordered three bags of Border Blend topsoil. Paid by Paypal. They delivered, on the specified date, carefully, exactly where I wanted the bags placed. All in all, a very pleasing purchase. The topsoil was excellent and had been very carefully prepared. No lumps. Would definitely recommend and I will use again. Everyone I spoke to was nice and helpful.

Ordered topsoil on Tuesday came by Friday at the exact time quoted. Was WAY cheaper than anywhere else (by about £15 per bag) and was dropped off via a crane on back of the lorry, not by pallet which most of the other places use. Soil was fine and dry. Brilliant !
