About Topsoil & Compost

Screened topsoil is graded, de-stoned soil for lawns, beds and levelling. Subsoil is the coarser lower layer for bulk build-up. Compost and soil improvers add organic matter and nutrients. These are sold by the tonne, bulk bag or cubic metre.

Common uses

  • New lawns and turfing
  • Raised beds and borders
  • Levelling and soft landscaping
  • Topdressing existing lawns
  • Improving soil structure (compost)

Choosing & ordering

Use BS 3882-grade screened topsoil for planting and lawns, and subsoil for bulk level changes beneath a topsoil layer. One tonne of topsoil covers about 13–15m² at 50mm. Blend in compost for beds, and keep subsoil out of anything you want to grow in.
