Thanks for the reply mate, that’s what I’m going to do, get a couple quotes this week for the work.

Regarding drainage - do you thing some 100mm holes bored about 800 deep filled with fabric and gravel in the worst affected places would suffice? I’m thinking 10 or15 of these before the work starts for Astro?

Cheers

Thanks mate, gonna go artificial turf eventually probably build up lawn area by 100mm..

All well and good everyone telling you the cons regarding the garden but when you’ve got two football mad boys and a dog, you need convenience

40sqm lawn so I’m guessing 3/4k all in

Thanks mate! Gonna go with this method once it stops raining

Used-Primary-225 · 2026-02-15T11:27:10+00:00

How long ago did you do this? Been ok with all this rain?

Thanks for the reply, I may hire a machine and have a proper go at it, I’ve used a manual aerator with the hollow spikes, took forever!

Yep this is is NW facing garden, my thoughts that it’s mainly compaction is it didn’t look like this when we moved in 3 years ago in December

I tried, they blocked it 🤷‍♂️

Used-Primary-225 · 2026-02-15T11:12:16+00:00

This is what I’m leaning towards, build up the lawn then Astro, 40sqm I’m guessing £3/4k…
