Premiership football teams seem to relay their pitches and play on them soon afterwards. LSV actually took off the top surface and re-seeded it last year. (in addition to allowing the existing roots to grow through) That's bound to take longer, I suppose. Years ago, I was shown what Bury did at Gigg Lane. (albeit in the Summer - much to Swinton's delight!) They re-turfed the pitch, with turfs about 10 inches deep. That seemed a pretty solid base to be able to play on fairly quickly.
