Well I don’t know about everyone else, but my house is quiet during the  day, Crazt in the morning and then slow and exhausted in the afternoon. Yes that’s right School has gone back and Marcus my littlest went to Pre-School this year. Its sad and lonely during the days now and the office and farm just aren’t as much fun. There is no real need for the toys to be here now, and like Macca (one of our amazing Truck driver and Grass Grower extraordinaire – and the adopted uncle of the family) we can’t really drive the tractor across the farm for no real reason anymore. Its only the first week and I can’t wait for school holidays. But it does mean that during the day now I have lots more time to talk and listen and help all of you with your Turf needs and desires.

And like the saying goes “the Grass is Always Greener on the Other Side.” I will miss all of them now, but maybe not so much in Holidays. So everyone lets get your grass grenner at your place so I can’t miss my kids and you can have a great place to send your kids out onto when they come home from school.

Well we are rip rearing to go here at Coastal Turf! Literally! Matt, our amazing Excavator/Bobcat/whatever-machine-he-can-get-his-hands-on man has just been amazing last month taking out peoples lawns where they have had the wrong grass put in and it wont grow thick and fluffy, or it has been attached by lawn grubs beyond repair, or that people prefer a different type or style of lawn than they already have. And then he has been replacing them with wonderful soft fluffy lawns for them to enjoy straight away. The customers have been saying how lovely it has been to wake up with dirt and dying lawn in the morning and then that very night sit down at night on soft lush lovely lawn (try saying that really fast ten times!)! What a difference green can make! A day turn around is fantastic!

So why not give us a call and we can have Matt at your place giving you on on-site quote ASAP!

Well at our house we are in full swing for Christmas! The Tree is gorgeous with home made decorations. The presents are wrapped with way more sticky tape than is needed. And the family has arrived to start the Christmas partying. So what else is needed. Well according to my husband, we need to do the lawn. He had my 10 year old nephew, 9 year old son, very old Step-father in law, Brother in law and himself out there yesterday manicuring the lawn, so we can all eat and be merry on it on Sunday. He has deemed water fights ok, and slip and slide a maybe (depending on how much slippy soap we put on – it can harm the lawn you know) and tables and chairs on there. Let me just say being a turf farmer and living with a landscaper/turf technician our lawn gets a spruce up only once a year when everyone is  coming. And the different turf types that make up my lawn (Palmetto in the shade, Zoysia where the cars park, Coastal Mix where the kids play and green couch under the clothes line and Blue couch out the front) are all given their special make over with their special needs, and then come together as one big green lush lawn. And isn’t that part of what Christmas is all about. Everyone from different areas and backgrounds coming together to form a beautiful family to gather eat and be merry at Christmas. And its even better if its done on a Coastal Turf Lawn!

Merry Christmas

Hi all lawn lovers. Just a quick note to say Thursday is these last day to order your turf to get it in time for Christmas. But never fear if you do want turf between Christmas and new year we will be here for you, we do need w day or two notice.

Merry Christmas everyone and have a lovely fun safe time.

Lots of love all the Coastal Turf Crew.

Well on 9 more sleeps until the BIG day, according to my children. They are super excited because school ends today (my daughter took a sicky today, but my son went cause they are having a party) an then its holidays. I am excited too cause it means that I don’t have to have the 5 of us ready to go out the door by 8.30am any more, we can have that extra half an hour on our hands. And the weather has picked up so they can go outside and play. Hurray from the kids and hurray from the parents!

Now kids, the best most lovely present you can give Mum and Dad this holiday is not socks or that thing you found down the bottom of your bed, but a lovely Coastal Turf Certificate so that can have lovely green grass for you to play on and give them some peace and relaxing time. Good for you and Great for them. And of course there is nothing like backyard cricket during the holidays, Parents vs Kids, and you can’t do that in bear feet on dirt and stones. But on lovely soft grass you can.

We are open on the 28th December and only have the 1st January off, so when your lovely children, neighbors, friends or family give you a lovely gift certificate you can spend it straight away while they are there to help you instal it for free, or hit them up for a little extra so we can come in and install it for you, while you sit down relaxed and watch. We can print your certificate out here, or email it to you so it will definetly be there in time for Christmas!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to All

I was watching the TV the other night and the ad came on for the new laws that are coming out so people can compare home loans. What a  great Idea. And the QTPA (Queensland Turf Producers Association) and the TPA (Turf Producers Australia) are trying to bring it in for Turf.

Too many times I get calls from people who say that they can get turf for cheaper, and will we match prices. My answer is always that at Coastal Turf sell our A Grade Products at that price because we REALLY have A Grade Grasses. A grade Turf to us means weed free and thick and Fluffy – not just cut off a farm paddock that could be a type of grass, but it has lots of other different grasses in it. It is really important that you ask companies what their A Grade products are and what makes them an A Grade Grass.

I know our A Grade Palmetto’s and Zoysia’s only have Palmetto and Zoysia in them. Our A Grade Wintergreen and Queensland Blue Couch only have Couch in them. But we do have B Grade grasses for those who don’t want the A grade grasses and are looking to save a bit of money. Our B Grade Grasses are not as thick and Fluffy as the A Grade, and are therefore labeled and sold that way, cheaper than the A Grade. But give them the 6 week settle time and they will be thick and fluffy at your place.

So please watch and compare prices, but also ask about their quality! Coastal Turf does A Grade to A Grade Quality!

Well Summer is a very funny term at the moment isn’t it. I mean where is the Sun? Maybe a bit of Rainember has come this year. But the rain does make the grass grow!

And makes back yards very muddy, and floors even muddier!I had a lovely lady call the other day who just wanted grass, it didn’t matter what because she was sick of the black dirt being walked in by children, and husbands onto her new white tiles. So we got some lovely green grass over to her straight away so her yard was green instead of mud. And with all the rain she didn’t have to water it either. So win win!

So yes even in the rain, we can cut your grass and bring it to you. But you have to speak REALLY nicley to us if you want the boys to install it….

Well hello December! Christmas is running at us and I had a friend ask me the other day what she should give her Brother who had just moved into his new house for Christmas. And after many thinking cups of coffee later I thought that a Coastal Turf Gift certificate would be great. Sometimes after you move in, and you want to have Christmas at your place cause you are very proud of your new place, you can become a little disheartened because the outside is still not perfect. Well family and friends, why not give them a Coastal Turf Gift Voucher and then they have get their yard finished and you can have a lovely place to have Christmas. And even if you want to give them a lovely wrapped certificate to them on the day we are open between Christmas and New year so we can deliver your lovely new lawn to you and get all your family and friends to help install it.

Merry Christmas and Happy Season Greetings

Wow its only 2 days till summer is here! How exciting! And what is more Australian than the sprinkled on the grass to water the lawn and the kids at the same time.

And the best time to do that without the guilt is after you put down your new turf. The grass is happy and the kids are supper happy cause not only do they have nice soft grass to run around on, but also a lovely cool sprinkler to run under too.

Win win really. I am for anything that stops ly kids being hot and grumpy. There are always the danger that all the neighbourhood kids may turn up for some soft grass sprinkler action as well. That always happens in our street.

Chat soon if I can here over the kids

Well again here I am at the dance reversal with all the dancing boyd and girls looking dazzling and Hollie having a marvelous time. And we are putting on the finishing touches to her costume and make-up. Kinda like the finishing touches to your house….

Well I had to refer to turf somewhere…..

Turning your house is the best finishing touch because adding that green around your house is like putting the glitter on. Making it sparkle saying I’m ready to go. Adding the green soft lush grass is inviting you to finally enjoy your home.

So gilts your place up for summer by adding some Coastal Turf grass at your place. It’s got to be better than waiting for hours at a 5 year old dance rehearsal.
