If it’s a few patches then turfing is very satisfying. It’s just like patching a carpet. Cut the turf to shape with a sharp knife. Use the patch as a template to cut out the dead lawn part. Water the ground then stick your patch in. It will establish quickly if you keep it moist. Spring would have been ideal but you can do this anytime that grass grows. Just keep watering until it’s growing actively.
Turf is about £3-4 for a meter long strip roll. Buy it fresh from a good garden centre or B&Q if your not fussy.
Seed is OK too and cheaper for big areas but need a bit more prep and it’s harder to establish especially in hot weather. I prefer the instant results that turf gives.
