  • What would be the major pitfalls with digging up concrete and replacing it with turf?

    We're looking at a house which has essentially a tennis court (technically it is a frontenis court) that we'd much rather was grass for the wee-un to play on, and have no idea what it might take to remedy.

  • The key pitfall is that digging up concrete is a lot of hard work. I'd budget for hiring a minidigger.

    After that, you're look at rotavating the base, adding some good soil and then turf.

  • Isn't there a hell of a lot more that can be done with one of those Vs a lawn
    or even if it is a lawn how much of a base would it need to grow i.e. just go on top with a shingle base covered with fleece then 4" top soil
