I want to re-do my lawn completely. Most recommendations are for the old

approach and I would welcome your views.

My idea is to hire a turf cutter to cut the turf and then flip the turf
completely over. Then the plan is to spread about 2 inches of top soil
on top and then sow grass seed with a little fertiliser.

I expect the old grass will grow through.

Well since he wants grass there again, why is this a problem?

No point in the massive effort of turning the turf over.
