Project Planner - Cost Calculator


The project planner helps you to draw a plan, calculate your requirements and work out the price of the materials you'll need for your SowGreen® lawn. You can use the downloadable project planner (PDF) to help you plot this or a printable grid is available here. Then use our online project calculator.

Step 1


Provide the total finished lawn area...

Total lawn area:   sq. m.  

Step 2


Provide the number and lengths of SowGreen® rolls you need...
SowGreen® is supplied in 2m widths and roll lengths up to 20m. Work out the best way to position the rolls to minimise the number of joints. This simply means deciding whether to lay the rolls from top to bottom or left to right across the garden. Never lay the rolls in different directions as this will detract from the overall finish.

WEED MEMBRANE:

A weed membrane should be laid prior to laying SowGreen® as a precautionary measure. You should use the calculated carpet area plus 10% to ensure there is sufficient overlap. The online price calculator on the next page will add this 10% for you. You should add it manually if you are using the downloadable project planner.
No. Rolls Roll length (m)
    x 2m wide = 0.00
    x 2m wide = 0.00
    x 2m wide = 0.00
    x 2m wide = 0.00
    x 2m wide = 0.00
Total carpet area: 0.00  square metres (at an RRP of £19.95 per sq. m.)

Step 3


Provide the total length of the seams that will join the rolls...
Length of joints: linear metres  

JOINTS:

Once you have determined your carpet layout you can calculate how many joints you will have. The jointing operation is very simple and we provide the adhesive, jointing tape and applicator to do this.
Optional Items:
 
Include skipbags for waste removal.  Include charge for fitting.

SKIP BAGS:

If required, we can provide skip bags for easy removal of your old turf. We would recommend that you remove your existing turf to a depth of 20mm. Use the lawn area and multiply it by 50 to calculate the overall weight of the waste in kg (eg. a 37 sq.m. lawn area x 50 kg would give 1850 kg of waste, therefore two 1000kg skip bags would be required). Please note cost is for bags only and you need to allow a collection charge for each bag. Details can be found at www.hippowaste.co.uk.

FITTING:

Although installation of SowGreen® is very straightforward, we do offer an installation service. If you choose this option we will assume that there is easy access to the garden through a minimum 800mm wide gate.
We will provide an amount of sharp sand for taking out minor undulations but the carpet will be laid to existing falls. We shall assume that the SowGreen® is to be laid in the same configuration as the existing lawn. The cost for this service is calculated per square metre of lawn area, however there is a minimum charge.


PLEASE NOTE: For ease of installation and transport we cut Sowgreen into 2 metre widths, however we are happy to supply it in 4 metre widths if you prefer. The finish achieved in either width is just the same as no seams are visible after installation.
