What is Top Soil?
Top soil is a dark coloured, nutrient rich soil that is often layered on top of a harder soil, particularly in flower beds or along garden borders. It is popular amongst gardeners and landscapers as it is easy to work with and contains organic materials that help plants and flowers to grow and thrive. Top Soil is also commonly used as a nutrient rich base for laying turf.
How much top soil do I need?
To calculate how much topsoil you may need, just simply measure the size of the area you want to cover and multiply by the needed depth to figure out how much topsoil you'll need. The easiest method is to measure in metres, which will tell you the volume of topsoil required in cubic metres. For example: A location of 10m by 15m requires 150mm of covering.
