Shoalhaven Turf Installation
There’s nothing worse than laying new turf and watching it dry out, curl up or die within weeks. That’s why proper turf installation matters—because even the best turf can fail without the right foundation. At Oaks Quality Turf here in Shoalhaven, we don’t just deliver your turf and hope for the best. We’re on the ground with you, ensuring it’s laid evenly, tightly, and in the best possible condition to take root and thrive.
We’ve seen all kinds of yards—some with poor drainage, patchy sun, or rocky soil—and we know how to work around them to get the best results. We don’t do rushed jobs or shortcuts—just quality work that gives your new lawn the best start possible. If you want your turf to last and look great from day one, let’s talk. Call us on 0413 571 189 and we’ll help you get it done right.
Professional Turf Laying, Done Right
A great lawn starts with a solid foundation—and we know exactly how to create it. Our turf installation service is designed to give your new lawn the best shot at long-term success. We make sure the area is level, free from debris, and ready to support healthy growth. Once the turf arrives, we install it quickly and carefully to minimise stress on the grass and maximise root contact with the soil.
Timing is everything, especially during hot weather, so we stay efficient while making sure nothing is overlooked. We can also walk you through watering schedules and first-week care to help lock in the results. With decades of experience under our belts, we’ve learned what works—and what to avoid. If you want your new lawn to look lush, even, and ready to enjoy fast, give us a ring.
How do I prepare my yard for turf installation?
Start by clearing the area of any old grass, weeds, or debris. Then level the ground and lightly till the top layer of soil to help roots take hold. It’s important to test your soil's pH and add any necessary improvements, such as organic matter or fertiliser, to create the right growing conditions.
Make sure the area is free-draining and has no low spots that could lead to pooling water. Water the soil slightly just before laying the turf to help it stay moist underneath.
When is the best time to install turf in Australia?
The best time to lay turf is during spring or early autumn when temperatures are mild and there’s consistent rainfall. These conditions help the turf establish roots quickly without the stress of extreme heat or cold.
Summer is also possible if you can commit to a strict watering schedule, but avoid laying turf during heatwaves. In winter, turf can still be laid, but root growth slows down, so you’ll need to be patient with the establishment process.
How long does it take for new turf to establish?
New turf usually takes around 2 to 4 weeks to establish, depending on the variety and weather conditions. During this time, it’s essential to keep the turf moist with regular, light watering—especially in the first week.
Avoid walking on the lawn while the roots are developing. Once it starts to resist being lifted and shows signs of new growth, you’ll know the roots are taking hold. Full establishment may take longer during colder months.
