Frequently Asked Questions

How much topsoil do I need for a new lawn?

3-4 inches is the sweet spot. A 500 sq ft lawn at 3 inches needs about 4.6 cubic yards.

Screened or unscreened topsoil?

Screened is weed-free and consistent — worth it for lawns. Unscreened is fine for bulk fill and beds you'll till.
