bindweed in lawn

I've been doing a job whereby the whole garden is coveted knee high in bindweed I've sprayed off twice and all has dyed back well. Im now at the point where I need to lay turf. My concern is obviously a lot of root will remain regardless of how Mich I take out. I've explained this to client but am wondering weather I leave for few more weeks to see what comes up .AMD re spray again. Or just bits the bullet and turf. Views very much welcome. Dom

Regular mowing will deprive the bindweed of energy and eventually kill it.

Bindweed is very easily killed by 2-4D which also does not kill grass..... which helps allot if it does make a re-apearance come springitme.
