Crown has been a small family run business for over 35years, based at Eastfield Farm Driffield. It is owned and managed by Peter Moore and is one of the leading turf suppliers and installers in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. Peter initially trained at Bishop Burton College gaining an ONC in agriculture, which has given him a good grounding in all aspects of plant and soil husbandry.
Subsequently he has completed further training, attending a three year HND course, specialising in garden design and construction. The business has invested in a variety of specialised "Seed bed" preparation machinery this enables us to cater for all sizes of jobs; from domestic gardens, to larger commercial projects such as, football pitches, caravan parks, housing estates and larger grass seeded areas.

Services
Crown Lawns have specialised in providing Turf in Hull, Beverley, York, Lincoln, Grimsby, Scunthorpe and Driffield since 1974. We also provide Top Soil, Fencing, and Paving and a wide range of other services to residential and commercial customers throughout the UK, but working primarily in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.
We have been supplying and laying turf for over 35 years and our aim is to provide a first class service to all our customers. Whether you need a small or large order we aim to give a good friendly service and advice. We have various grades of turf to suit all budgets and purposes. This is a budget hard wearing Rhy grass mix suitable for family lawns- children and pets, caravan parks etc.
Topsoil is the upper most layer 6- 10 inches deep, it contains the highest concentration of plant nutrients and organic matter. This allows growth to flourish and produce rapidly, but remember different plants may require a different soil ph. Top soil is normally delivered and tipped at your property and left for you to move, but where access is difficult we can provide a barrowing service as shown in the images to the right.
We use various products which include drive sets, natural stone, paving slabs, gravel and slate. We recommend that any hard landscaping products are viewed before ordering from a catalogue. We would recommend that any hard landscaping should have a good sub-base, at least 4-6inches of hardcore, to ensure long lasting stability.
Crown are well suited to undertake larger seeded and turfing Projects. As we are farmers and turf growers, we have specialist machinery and skilled staff to prepare and sow a large areas. We have worked on many large projects throughout the UK including football pitches, caravan parks, housing estates and larger grass seeded areas.
