Top Dressing

Top dressing is desirable to improve the flatness of the croquet lawn. The top dressing is ordered from a specialist supplier and usually costs around £30 to £60 per tonne for 10 tonnes or more. A lot will depend on distance because much of the cost is in the transport.
The best method of top dressing is to use pure sand but it must be of the right type - sharp sand must not be used under any circumstances because it can compact into an impervious layer. For this reason it is vital that you use a specialist top dressing supplier. If you need guidance please let me know. If the top dressing is for levelling purposes and will be applied thickly it is best to use a 70/30 or 60/40 mix of sand and loam.
Top dressing should be done in the autumn. The method of application used at Letchworth and Newport Croquet Clubs is demonstrated in the video.
