Making a NEW LAWN from scratch

It’s time to make a new lawn with grass seed in the UK. In this video we’re doing a lot of tree root removal, full re-grade of ground levels and making a brand new lawn from scratch. Can it be done for under £25??

If only a few more people in the world put even 10% of the effort you put into things the world would be a far more pleasant place to be.

Congratulations to you and Mrs Mac for making such a fine job on the house. Your garden will no doubt be equally impressive.

We did pretty much the same as you in our small lawn last year, after we’d received a quote for £1, 500 from a landscaper to “send some lads over to dig it up, but with no guarantee the seed will take” - saved ourselves almost £1, 500 and have a nice lawn

You guys are brilliant. Love the look of joy on Mrs Mac’s face when you got the Tiller!

[sergeantcrow]

Good job using the levelled buried boards and large T bar to establish level... Excellent idea...

[charlesmcmasters]

Great video. Its not often you can watch the entire start to finish of this type of work in a single video. Well filmed, and explained fantastically. Your channel has come so far since those early days. Nothing but the best of wishes to you and your fam!

[mandyleeson]

Great job, and big shout out for the quietly diligent Mrs. Mac 👏🏼

[juliacarr]

It looks fabulous, I bet you and Mrs Mac are looking forward to everything being done.

I thought it was Michael Jackson doing the moon dance when you were treading in that topsoil Andy. As always such a wonderfully instructive and intelligent vignette. You see so many properties both new build and old built with a download slope towards the foundations or ground level..always something to bear in mind. Still very tidy and thorough and Mrs Mac she's a diamond of a grafter !

[Simezy]

The method of levelling with the wooden batons was genius! Great end result

Place is looking FAB! Mrs. Mac is a total gem.

Great job and great advocate for natural materials

Good job Andy. Mrs Mack is a trooper & gets stuck in. Couldn't see my wife doing anything like that. I know how hard that work is because I had to do a similar thing when we got rid of some 30 year old fir trees from our front garden. Roots everywhere & quite deep. Keep them coming Mr & Mrs Mack.

@17:25 Love it! Great editing!!
Gliding across the lawn.😂✔👍

[Scorpio_moon]

You are so dedicated in everything you do. It really is a joy to watch all the progress. Lawn looks great!

[Bjangle]

I didn't realise how quickly seed grows. Looks amazing

[Wild-Storm]

Great team work with the Mrs. Well done and you both deserved a pat for such a well done job!

[cannontrodder]

That tiller sequence was beautiful! It looked extremely satisfying. Consider goggles though, Andy and Mrs Mac. Great video, I’ve got these sorts of jobs ahead on my own 90 year old property.

Pleased you did this. So many people buy turf and can't be bothered growing a lawn, it's so easy and fun.
