Great company! I ordered turf and tree bark for my garden late on a Friday for delivery to Girton, Cambridge on the following Monday. It was all delivered on the Monday morning as agreed. The turf was in really good shape and the overall cost was very competitive. I highly recommend this firm.

I wish I had read the other reviews here before trying this firm. They failed to process my order, were unwilling to talk about it on the phone and then hung up.

VERY IMPOLITE AND UNFRIENDLY
Called in today to order turf. Spoke to a gentleman who was able to provide a price and delivery time. However it was not long before he turned very rude. I asked how many rolls would be provided as I need to account for space and handling on the site. He got very short and told me not to worry about that. Then he wanted to take my card details on the phone and I suggested he call me back when near a card machine and I would be happy to pay for the items - rather than him taking details in the car while driving. At this point I was asked if I wanted the turf, after

Absolutely shocking, was short supplied and a quarter of the rolls delivered were in extremely poor quality, rips and tears, falling apart etc
I called up to explain the short supply and a need of some turf rolls being replaced due to there quality, after a brief argument over the phone of which they were taking absolutely no responsibility for I was told to come and exchange turf rolls needed and collect extras that were missing but they must be collected rather than delivered, on arrival at the LC Turf depot we was asked to show the rolls of turf that were received which we did to then be told

Ordered with L.C Turf for the first time. 3 pallets of turf. Guys we’re very accommodating when we changed to our order last minute and requested a new delivery date. Quick and efficient delivery and a wonderful product. Would highly recommend 😊
