We're just taking up some paving and hoping to put turf in its place.
Underneath the paving slaps is a mixture of soil and sand, which we're planning to take up. We don't know yet how deep it goes down but it has been used to raise the paved area so it may be only six inches or so. It may have normal garden soil underneath it.
My question is: how much good soil will turf need beneath it in order to grow. I need to know so we can judge if we need to excavate and replace soil if what we find under the sand is, say, more sand, or something else unhelpful.
