    Alan Titchmarsh shared his simple tips with Waitrose & Partners in a YouTube video in 2014. The expert shared how to repair and protect your lawn with simple techniques.

    For those with bare patches in the middle of their lawn, Alan shared how to repair it.

    He said: “You can of course prick it over with a fork and reseed it.”

    However, in the middle of summer, the grass may take a while to grow. 

    Alan added: “It’s much easier to replace it with a piece of turf but how do you do it so the turf fits perfectly?

    Alan then removed the remaining pieces of grass below before placing the fresh piece of turf over the bald patch.

    He said: “The way to get it to absolutely match is to take a piece from elsewhere in the lawn if you can spare it.

    “If you’re making another border, that’s great for patching because it’s exactly the same turf.”

    Alan then watered the section of grass he replaced.
