New lawns that take and stay green
Turf is only as good as what is under it. Roll premium turf onto poor ground and it goes patchy and bumpy within a season. Dust To Lawn preps the base properly and lays quality Canturf and Rivturf, so you get a thick, level lawn that roots in fast and lasts.

How we handle your lawns & turf job
Base preparation
We clear the old surface, fix the levels and grade, and lay good topsoil so the turf has something to root into and water drains the right way.
Premium turf
We lay quality Canturf and Rivturf varieties suited to Canberra conditions, sun or shade, so you get a lawn that holds up to frost, heat and use.
Laid tight and level
Turf laid with tight joins and rolled level so there are no gaps, ridges or scalping when you mow.
Aftercare advice
We will tell you exactly how to water and look after it in those first few weeks, which is when a new lawn is made or ruined.
- Premium turf
- Proper base prep
- Level finish
- Roots in fast

Rated 5.0 by Canberra homeowners
We needed our backyard redoing to make it more practical. Adam and his team did an incredible job from start to finish! Honestly, one of the best companies I’ve dealt with. They went above and beyond with their work. Very highly recommended!!
Top-notch bloke, top-notch team. Dust to Lawn are that quiet little company who simply do great work and look after their clients. Seems a rarity these days. I would have the team back at my place any day. I highly recommend them.
Highly recommend Dust to Lawn. Adam and his team were amazing. Adam was extremely helpful from start to finish. We are very pleased with the landscaping as it’s turned previously unused areas into beautiful gardens, lawn and paved living areas.
Thank you Adam and team, our backyard transformation is incredible!
Highly recommended. Very happy with the work done at our place.
Lawns & Turf FAQs
Which turf is best for Canberra?
It comes down to how much sun the area gets and how much wear it takes. We lay Canturf and Rivturf varieties and will recommend the right one for your yard during the quote.
Why not just lay turf on the dirt I have?
Because the result only lasts if the base is right. Without proper grading and topsoil, turf goes bumpy, patchy and struggles to root. The prep is what makes a lawn last.
How long until I can use the new lawn?
Keep off it for the first couple of weeks while it roots in, and keep the water up. After that it firms up quickly. We will give you clear aftercare instructions.
Can you fix a tired existing lawn instead of replacing it?
Sometimes. If it is too far gone, fresh turf is the better value. We will give you an honest call when we look at it.
