North Shore & West Auckland Testimonials
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

Mike was a legend from beginning to end with great communication on what the steps would be and very responsive to my questions.. I’m extremely happy with the end result and would recommend Woolgro and especially Mike to anyone looking to transform their lawn.



Once mat is installed all I did was to water it and within 8 weeks we had a very healthy and thick lawn. It’s a fabulous product and Mike is very knowledgeable, honest and helpful.
Mike was able to lay a new lawn for us, even though it was in the middle of winter. It is spring, the lawn is lush and lovely to walk on. The Woolgro concept is brilliant and the results are amazing. I have no hesitation in recommending Mike and Woolgro. You will love your new lawn.

FAQs
Woolgro is a sustainable lawn mat product made from recycled wool and natural fibres. It is designed to create lush green lawns quickly and easily. It combines grass seed with a biodegradable mat, providing an ideal growing environment for various climates and soil types.
The Woolgro lawn mat provides a nutrient-rich, moisture-retentive environment for grass seed. The mat protects the seed from birds and ensures even distribution while fertilising the soil and suppressing weeds as it decomposes.
Woolgro offers several types of lawn mats, including:
Premium Rye Grass Lawn Mat Roll: A turf-type perennial ryegrass bred for fineness, density and colour with levels of winter growth.
Premium Tall Fescue Grass Lawn Mat Roll: Premium Tall Fescue forms a dense turf with a reasonably fine texture. It is drought, heat, and wear tolerant, making it a lush, plush lawn.
Tall Fescue Grass Lawn Mat Roll: Tall Fescue is drought, heat and wear-tolerant grass species.
Premium Hardy Blend Lawn Mat Roll: Premium Hardy blends 70% winter-active Rye, 30% creeping, and fine Fescue grass.
Premium Fine Blend Lawn Mat Roll: Premium Fine blends of Rye, creeping, and fine Fescue grass. It suits areas with less direct sunlight.
Kikuyu Blend Lawn Mat Roll: Kikuyu blended with fine Fescue to give quick establishment as the Kikuyu spreads. This blend is ideal for areas that receive plenty of sunlight, offering a lush, vibrant lawn that thrives in warm conditions.

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.
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.
