Laying turf (roll-lawn): What does it cost?

Laying turf costs an average of 17 euros per square meter.
The total price ranges between 14 and 20 euros per square meter.

Roll turf — a beautiful lawn ready to be laid immediately.
Roll turf is especially popular among people with large gardens. Unlike traditional seeded lawns that require several weeks to grow, roll turf is instantly ready and walkable. It’s a natural lawn that takes root in your soil, resulting in a lush, well-kept appearance.
For the best results, it’s recommended to hire a professional for installation.

Cost factors that can affect the price

• Type of turf

• Additional charge for pre-cooled or pre-fertilized turf

• Extra cost for watering

• Labor costs

What additional costs may arise?

Some suppliers include delivery in the total price, while others charge separately.
Expect 1.50 to 3 euros per square meter for delivery.

Over time, additional maintenance costs will occur, just as with traditional lawns — including regular watering and fertilization expenses.
