Laying turf on concrete
Having researched whether or not you can lay turf on concrete and finding mixed answers, Ive decided to have a go. It is only a small area about 2m x 2m, i was wondering whether anybody could give me any step by step advice to laying the turf, im a complete novice so as much detail as possible would be excellent!
Thanks in advance

Assuming that you want to do it properly, even for such a small area, and that you want it to last - break up the concrete.
If you don't want to do that then why not pave it, if the concrete is too rough to leave exposed.
If you just lay the turf on top you are probably going to have to replace it annually for with no decent drainage it will be waterlogged in the winter and conversely in the summer it will be crying out for water!!!!
