Quotations

My basic charge is £20 per hour, and the only extras would be if you asked me to buy any products on your behalf such as a feed or plants from the garden centre.

Minimum time: 1 hour

You can have a mix of services in the time, e.g. lawn mowing plus weeding.

I can pop round to have a look and give you a rough estimate how long it will take, and therefore the expected cost.

  • easy, clear communication
  • any jobs as listed – no job too small
  • tidy up afterwards
Edging

Planting – Spring bulbs such as daffodils (a bit too early for tulips)

Lawn Mowing – grass will continue to grow in October, especially if we have rain and warm days!

Sow new grass seed – last chance to scarify (early october) and put down new grass seed (early to mid October)

Lawn edging – this makes a massive difference to the overall aesthetic appeal of your garden

Weeding – weeds continue to pop up, so keeping on top of them is essential

Pruning – shrubs and flowers that have finished for the season

Deadhead late summer flowers

Hedges – may become overgrown, and now is a good time to give them a trim

Mulching – a good time to spread compost on borders, and I also like to spread bark – it subpresses weeds and looks great!
