How Do I Buy Turf Online

August 31, 2023     

Okay, so you’ve decided to transform your garden, begin your next landscaping project or simply refresh your worn-out lawn. Now you’re trying to figure out the best type of turf for your soil and how many rolls of turf you need to order. Here’s the good news, you’re in the right place!

Buying turf online couldn’t be an easier or quicker process. Especially when ordering with the Landscaper’s Choice, George Davies Turf! We’ve made it our mission to ensure the entire process of buying turf online is customer focused. Providing a range of turf to match your requirements and a swift delivery direct to your landscaping project.

We’ve also created a handy step-by-step guide to walk you through the process of ordering and buying turf online. Follow our 6 easy steps rolled out below:

STEP 1: CHOOSE YOUR TYPE OF TURF

George Davies himself has hand-selected the best turf for our customers. Meeting our clients’ requirements and sourcing turf that will thrive with the different soil compositions within the George Davies Country. Start your online turf journey by first finding the right turf to suit your project:

Trident turf

Cultivated for up to 2 years, this is our premium turf; weed-free and harvested to the highest standard.

Wildflower turf

Our natural meadow look provides your landscape project with a splash of colour, minimal maintenance and a place for wildlife to thrive.

Greens turf

This luxury lawn requires expert care and attention, which is why it’s reserved for golf and bowling greens only.

RTF Turf

A robust option for areas with high drought or footfall. RTS delivers tough and stable turf, ready to face all sorts of weather conditions.

Shade Tolerant Turf

The perfect choice for shady gardens; offering a high-quality turf which will flourish with minimal sunlight.

To learn more, read our dedicated blog about the different types of turf or head straight to our turf products.

STEP 2: PICK THE SHAPE OF YOUR LAWN

If you’re replacing your lawn like for like, you’ll already know the shape of your lawn. For those looking to change the shape of their garden or starting a brand-new garden design, then it’s important to know which grass shape you want. This could be square, rectangular, circular or a unique figure altogether. But the shape you choose will determine how much turf you need to order.

STEP 3: MEASURE YOUR LAWN

Once you’ve settled on the shape of your lawn, you now need to calculate how big your dedicated space will be. There are different ways to measure different shaped lawns and our blog on how to measure your lawn provides a breakdown for each outline. Once you have your measurements, you can head straight to our turf calculator for step 4.

STEP 4: CALCULATE HOW MUCH TURF YOU NEED

Our bespoke turf calculator is available to make ordering turf online a quick, easy and accurate task. Our calculator is available on any of the George Davies Turf website pages; simply click the button and it’ll take you directly to the calculator. You can then add in your shape and measurements from steps 2 and 3. This information will confirm the total area to cover and the number of rolls of turf required. We also recommend adding 5% of the amount recommended to allow for any wastage.

STEP 5: ADD TO BASKET

Once you’re happy with the amount of turf you require, add it to your basket. Before you head to the checkout, make sure you view our range of gardening products which you may need to complete your landscaping project. Perhaps some topsoil to scatter before rolling out your new turf, or some decorative bark to add those finishing touches. Once you have everything you need, click on the basket in the top right-hand corner and follow the payment instructions.

STEP 6: BOOK YOUR 2-HOUR GUARANTEED DELIVERY SLOT

Once you’ve placed your turf order, you’ll receive an email confirmation with a unique order reference. One of the GDT team will soon be in contact with you to arrange a delivery day and time suitable for you. On the day of delivery, you’ll receive an update from your friendly delivery driver and your turf will be delivered within 2 hours, guaranteed.
