iv just had the same problem the next few steps are tryed and tested by myself and it works.... but you need to put some work in yourself ..... 1. rake out all moss . 2. rake the area that you demossed, then rake again leaving rake markes in ground about 3inches in depth. 3. now scatter your new grass seeds. 4. cover new grass seeds with a good compost multi perpose is fine. 5. let grass seeds grow then do your first cut. 6.after first cut fork your whole lawn go to the depth of the fork. 7. get some sharp sand and pile it in the middle of your lawn, now work from the center and brush sharp sand over the whole of your lawn. the sharp sand workes as drainage, as your lawn is too wet and damp.... its hard work but worth it.
