Located on the coast, just an hour’s drive from Sydney, Wollongong has a warm, temperate and coastal climate which means that it does not experience extremes in temperature. This creates ideal conditions for many turf varieties to thrive in:
Zoysia Turf Types like Empire Zoysia™ and Nara Native Zoysia™ are attractive, drought and wear tolerant grasses. They are also ideal for coastal areas due to Zoysia grass having a high salt tolerance.
If you’re looking for a Buffalo Grass – Sapphire® Buffalo and Palmetto® Buffalo have high shade tolerance, low maintenance and hold their winter colour well.
Kikuyu grass such as Kenda® thrive in full sun, making them an ideal fit for Wollongong homes.
Different turf varieties vary in price and depend on their characteristics. Kenda Kikuyu is generally $7-$15 per square metre and is considered one of the most cost effective turf types. Whereas an all-rounder turf type like Palmetto Buffalo is around $10-$19 per square metre.

How you prepare turf can differ depending on the season and weather conditions.
If you’re laying turf in hot weather, we recommend laying turf immediately after delivery to avoid the turf heating up and drying out overnight. We also recommend laying warm turf first (often slabs in the middle of the pallet are the warmest).
For those laying turf in winter, be mindful of your climate and frost conditions – these will affect your lawn installation. Ensure your site is weed-free and cut/roll existing grass for removal. You may also want to cover it with coarse sand and a layer of fertiliser or topsoil.
myhomeTURF’s network of turf suppliers and growers are highly experienced in turf site inspection, site preparation, and installation. We recommend reaching out to one of our professional turf suppliers for assistance when preparing turf for laying.
The thickness of your turf will depend on the season and conditions at the time of harvesting and usually 35-40mm. If you have any queries about turf delivery, please reach out to your local turf supplier for more information.
