🌿 DIY Guide: How to Install Instant Roll-On Lawn
Instant lawn gives you a mature lawn immediately — without waiting months for seed to establish.
✅ STEP 1 — Measure & Order
-
Measure the length and width of your area.
-
Draw a simple sketch, including curves or obstacles.
-
Calculate total square metres (length × width).
📌 Install on the same day as delivery – instant lawn must be laid immediately.
✅ STEP 2 — Prepare the Soil
Dig & Level
-
Dig to a depth of 10–15 cm or add quality topsoil
-
Slope soil slightly away from buildings
-
Remove weeds, stones, roots & debris
-
Lightly compact the soil
Fertilise
-
Apply 2:3:2 or 6:3:4 starter fertiliser
-
Rake lightly into the topsoil
Moisten Soil
-
Lightly water before laying turf (±5 cm deep)
✅ STEP 3 — Lay the Turf
-
Lay immediately on arrival
-
Start from a straight edge (path or driveway)
-
Butt rolls tightly together (no gaps or overlaps)
-
Stagger joints (brick-pattern)
-
Lay across slopes, not down
-
Avoid walking on new turf
-
Lightly roll after installation
-
Water thoroughly once completed
✅ STEP 4 — Watering Schedule
💧 90% of lawn failures are caused by under-watering
General Guideline
| Period | Watering |
|---|---|
| First 2 weeks | Daily (often multiple times in hot weather) |
| Weeks 3–5 | Reduce gradually to once daily |
| After 5 weeks | 2–3 deep waterings per week |
| Established lawn | 1–2 deep waterings weekly (±30 mm) |
🚫 Avoid watering during strong wind
🚫 Do not hand-water
🚫 Common Mistakes
-
Under-watering
-
Hand-watering only
-
Walking on fresh turf
-
Short watering cycles

Delayed installation
