Laying grass

[Guss109]

Passed a job today where they had layed new turf and they were going over it with the wacker plate is this normal? Never seen it done before and thought surely that can't be good for it

[jim@T&Ccare]

Sure it wasn't artificial grass as that needs compacting?

Wasn't stuart and his boys ?

Def not best practice

[biggarlogs]

It means that they have done little or no prep,cowboy job.usually they whacker it before laying turf!.not good for drainage .was it a building site? Maid

Wasn't astro turf was it? Some of it is very good. Not sure how to put it down though.

No definitely real turf as passed yesterday and seen it stacked on the drive. It's a new build that there trying to sell quickly I think. No Dave not a blue van in sight

I hate to see people use them before laying turf to help prep, but after it's laid is a definate no no imo

I thought the same but thought it best to ask as it's not something I've seen done before
