How are Emerald Lawns delivered?

Normally rolls on pallets by a lorry with a tail lift and pallet truck to offload onto a smooth, solid, level surface which is usually the “kerbside”.

What size is each roll?

Normally 600 x 1667mm (24 x 64 inches) = one sq. metre (0.8361 sq. yard) and 19mm (3/4 inch) thick, weighing 15-20Kgs (7-9lbs). N.B. All figures are approximate.

What is the best time of the year to lay Emerald Lawns?

Conveniently at any time of the year, although it must be kept sufficiently damp until it has rooted into the soil below. Therefore during the summer, you may have to pay extra attention to watering. Consequentially, during the winter it is not at such risk of drying out, but root growth is slower, and therefore you will have to wait a little longer before you can use your new lawn.

Can I lay Emerald Lawns on my old lawn and how are they laid?

We recommend that the base is prepared as for seeding a new lawn, i.e firm & level topsoil. Please click here for details on “How to create the perfect Emerald Lawn”

How long can I leave the Emerald Lawns rolled up?

Being a perishable product, each order is harvested fresh and should normally be laid within 24 hours of delivery. If this is not possible it should be rolled out on a temporary area and kept sufficiently damp until it is finally laid.

When can I walk on my new Emerald Lawn?

Try to stay off the lawn until the new roots have transplanted into the soil, binding it together and making it firmer to withstand potential foot impressions.

When it’s laid, what do l need to do?

Ensure it is adequately watered immediately, otherwise the rolls may shrink, leaving gaps between the joints. Please click here for further information.

When do l start mowing my Emerald Lawn?

When the lawn is firm enough to walk on, commence mowing, where no more than 25% of the initial height is removed. Click here for further details.

Toadstools have appeared on my recently laid Emerald Lawn. Are they harmful?

These are formed from spores which occur naturally in fertile soils when disturbed by the harvesting process. They are completely harmless and normally only occur in the first year, during conditions of warm, wet weather.

Grubs have appeared in my lawn. Are they harmful?

Certain types of grubs or slugs can cause severe damage to lawns by eating the grass roots. Sometimes birds feeding on these pests during the Autumn/Winter periods will be a sign of a potential problem. Identify the exact pest present and then apply a suitable insecticide as stated on the product label. For more information follow this link: www.nemasysinfo.com/order.shtml
