Central & South Auckland Testimonials

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

We became ashamed of the weeds, bare patches, clay and irregularity of our supposed lawn. Gerard Mcaleese sprayed the weeds until they were all gone, he rotary hoed, added good quality soil, levelled the lawn, rolled out and fitted the Woolgro, and ensured subsequent care and irrigation until we had the beautiful, even, rich green lawn which we have now. The preparation, product, laying and aftercare have been exemplary, and the result proves it. I strongly recommend Gerard Mcaleese & Woolgro.

Ron Goodey, Remuera

I wanted to thank Gerard from Woolgro for transforming my lawn. As is common in One Tree Hill, a lot of the earth is composed of scoria and rock. With a very thin layering of soil, half my lawn’s grass had died with rock exposed. Having heard Woolgro’s advertisement on the radio one evening I researched their website, viewed the video, which was very informative explaining the process. I contacted Gerard who was quick to respond. Within a few days Gerard had visited my property at a time that suited and presented a quote for landscaping, wool mat/grass laying, and recommended a water sprinkling system at a fair and reasonable price. Within two weeks Gerard and his team had completed the work, to budget, and to an exceptional standard. The whole process was seamless. Furthermore, the follow up and after service has been exemplary. He continues to monitor and engage to ensure his product performs as it should. I would not hesitate in recommending Gerard or Woolgro to anybody who requires a new lawn and an extremely professional service.

Jeremy, One tree Hill

We are so happy with how the new lawn looks- it’s night and day compared to the previous lawn. Thanks for the great service and great result.

Brett and Kate

I have found Gerard from Woolgro to be knowledgeable, professional and very helpful. We were confident that he was going to visit when he said he would and gave us a lot of advice. The Woolgro product we found to be extremely successful and has grown into a beautiful lush lawn. Thanks so much for your care.

Linda & Greg Reid

Our landscaping company first used Woolgro for one of our clients lawns about 3 years ago. It was such an easy product to install and produced such an incredible result that we have used it for dozens of lawns since. Not only does the lawn look great after 3 weeks, but it remains a healthy and strong lawn. We have also been impressed that it proves a more cost effective lawn product than other traditional ways of installing a lawn. Thanks Woolgro!

A: The installation time for a Woolgro lawn mat can vary based on several factors, including the size of the area being covered and whether you choose to install it yourself or hire a professional. However, generally speaking:

DIY Installation: Installing the Woolgro lawn mat can typically take a few hours for an average-sized lawn. However, depending on the condition of the existing soil and landscaping, the site preparation may take additional time.

Professional Installation: Woolgro offers professional installation services, which are usually efficient and can often be completed within a day, depending on the size of the project and the team’s schedule.

For both methods, proper preparation and care after installation are crucial to ensure successful grass establishment. Regular watering and monitoring will help achieve a lush lawn quickly.

A: The best time to install a Woolgro lawn mat is autumn and spring. These seasons provide optimal conditions for grass growth due to the moist soil and moderate temperatures, which are favourable for establishing a healthy lawn.

While Woolgro lawn mats can be laid year-round, autumn and spring are preferred because:

  • Moist Conditions: The soil tends to be damp without being overly wet, which helps the grass seed germinate effectively.
  • Milder Temperatures: These seasons generally have milder temperatures, which reduce stress on the newly laid lawn and allow it to establish roots more easily.
