Measuring the area of a square or rectangular lawn is
easy to do. Simply measure the length and the width and multiply the two
together. This gives you the area.
(For example 9 x 7 = 63)
Triangular gardens are calculated by width x height
divided by 2
You can calculate the area of a circle by using the
radius, which is half the distance across the circle by using the following:
(Radius) x (Radius) x 3.14 = Area of Circle
Convertions:
1 foot = 0.3048 metres
1 square yard = 0.8361 square metres
Wastage Allowance
We recommend that you add 5% to your calculated area to
allow for off cuts and angles. We recommend that you do not use small
off cut pieces within your lawn as they are more likely to dry out and
struggle to establish.
Additional Suggestions
Be sure to measure carefully. Double check your
measurements. We suggest you measure in metres as Sterling Turf is sold
in square metres (each roll equals 1 square metre)
