Transforming a tired overgrown lawn

Hi all, I'm all all new to this site so thought I'd join to hopefully get some good advise. Im at the stage of changing my complete back garden, it's about 100ft and full of grass and weeds, I'm having a digger come in to levelling the complete garden. My problem is do I kill all grass and weeds first then level or level then kill all growth then restart again, I was planning on seeding or turfing when complete, I'm really stuck on what to do so any advise would be a great help. Many thanks Andy

You say a digger is coming in - whatever you do, don't let it take off the top 20cm of soil or so to get rid of weeds. If you do, you'll lose your topsoil and be left with only subsoil, where plants will struggle to grow.
