The turf was delivered promptly which was great but so many rolls were broken and with different batches of turf. This made for a patchy looking front and backyard. Price was reasonable. All in all you get what you pay for.

The turf arrived within 2 days and was of high quality. The truck driver was very helpful in helping me move the turf from the pellet so that he could take it with him.
