New Lawns & Turfing · Angus

Looking for turfing & new lawns in Angus?

A new lawn is one of the fastest ways to transform a tired garden. We lift worn out grass, prepare and level the ground properly, and lay fresh quality turf that knits in quickly and gives you a usable green space within weeks. We turf gardens of all sizes across Fife, Dundee, Angus and Perthshire, whether you are replacing a patchy, mossy lawn, finishing off a new build plot, or reinstating ground after building works or a garden redesign.

The coastal strip from Carnoustie up to Montrose is windswept and salt-exposed, and shelter planting takes a beating over winter. Inland towards Forfar, Kirriemuir and the mouths of the Angus glens the ground is more sheltered and fertile, with substantial mature hardwoods and long-established beech and hawthorn boundaries that need regular management to stay dense rather than gappy at the base.

Rural Angus properties usually have good access for machinery, which keeps costs down on larger jobs — but they also bring more overhead line proximity, livestock fencing and roadside safety to plan around. Conservation areas in Montrose, Brechin and Kirriemuir and protected trees on older properties mean we still check with Angus Council before any tree work that might be restricted.

We cover Arbroath, Carnoustie, Forfar, Brechin, Kirriemuir, Montrose, Edzell, Friockheim and the villages in between, and you can read more about our wider work on our Angus page or the full new lawns & turfing guide.

New Lawns & Turfing carried out by LM Trees & Landscaping in Angus
  • Removal of old turf and debris — Stripping out failed grass, moss and surface roots so the new turf is not laid over the problems that killed the last lawn.
  • Ground preparation and levelling — Cultivating, grading and firming the soil to remove hollows and bumps, so the finished lawn mows evenly.
  • Drainage improvement — Breaking up compaction and improving the top layer where ground sits wet, which is common on heavy Scottish soils.
  • Quality turf laying — Fresh turf laid in staggered courses with tight joints and neatly cut edges around beds, paths and curves.

Why Angus homeowners choose us

The difference between a lawn that looks good for a season and one that looks good for a decade is nearly all in the preparation. We take the time to get levels, soil condition and drainage right before a single roll is laid, and we are fully insured and careful with access routes through your property while the turf is moved in.

Typical Angus jobs: shelter belt and boundary tree maintenance on rural properties, long beech and hawthorn hedge reductions, and clearing neglected gardens back to usable lawn.

Reviews from our Facebook page

“Lee and team did a garden clearance for me after moving into a property with a pretty neglected garden, including a pretty hefty ivy growth on the back of the house. They did an absolutely cracking job of clearing all the growth, the ivy, some unexpected branch piles and taking away all the rubbish. Did in a day what would have taken me many days to do myself. Also got some great advice on the next steps of bringing the garden back to life.”

“Had Lee and team lay a patio and path. Work was done in a good manner and to a high standard, everything was left clean and tidy and nothing was too much hassle. Thanks Mr McDonald.”
