im planning on doing my ex wifes garden soon, its about 25ft x 50ft and its grass covered. i was thinking of putting rockery in and doing some paving stones etc but this will maybe be expensive and ive no confidence in that she will upkeep it ( i want my kid to have a nice home )
anyway, large grass area, how best to maintain it, level it off and best grass seeds etc to make a nice straight lawn, i think that would be easiest option ? the existing lawn is a little bumpy and ground is soft especially now in winter , so i want to harden it up and make it easier to mow etc.
D.D. If you want to keep the grass hire a "WAKER PLATE" to flatten the bumps, look at the likes of Gum Tree for used flag stones, also use teramm membrane to keep the weeds down, can you not find someone to keep it tidy for a few £££££££ per week?
Go for trees and shrubs, easy maintenance, year round interest and wildlife friendly.
Kids should find it a fascinating adventure exploring the nature it attracts.

was thinking this, make it a labour of love and take my time at it bit by bit .
definately need to get a heavy duty grass strimmer, brush cutter .
