What Is Topsoil & Why Does It Matter?
Topsoil is the uppermost layer of soil — typically the top 10–30cm — and it's where the majority of plant root activity takes place. Good quality topsoil is rich in organic matter, well-structured, and free-draining, giving your plants the best possible start.
Poor or compacted soil is one of the most common reasons gardens underperform. Adding quality screened topsoil improves drainage, boosts nutrient availability, and creates the ideal growing environment for grass, plants, vegetables, and shrubs.
Our Garden Topsoil
Our topsoil is screened to remove stones, roots, and debris, giving you a clean, workable product that's ready to use straight away. It's suitable for a wide range of applications:
- Lawn preparation — create a level, fertile seedbed before turfing or seeding
- Raised beds & vegetable gardens — fill and top up growing areas with nutrient-rich soil
- Border & bed improvement — improve existing soil structure and fertility
- Levelling & landscaping — fill hollows, level uneven ground, and reshape garden areas
- Tree & shrub planting — backfill planting holes with quality soil for strong establishment
How Much Topsoil Do You Need?
To calculate the volume of topsoil required, multiply the length × width × depth of the area (all in metres). For example, to cover a 10m × 5m lawn area at 100mm depth, you'd need 5 cubic metres of topsoil. As a general guide:
- Lawn preparation (100mm depth): 1 tonne covers approx. 6–8m²
- Raised beds (200mm depth): 1 tonne covers approx. 3–4m²
- Top dressing (25mm depth): 1 tonne covers approx. 25–30m²

Tips for Using Topsoil in Your Garden
- Prepare the area first — remove weeds, break up compacted ground, and rake level before applying topsoil
- Apply at the right depth — for lawns, aim for at least 100mm; for planting beds, 150–200mm is ideal
- Mix with existing soil — blend new topsoil into the existing ground to avoid a hard layer forming at the boundary
- Firm and settle — lightly compact and water in after laying to help the soil settle before planting or turfing
