• Lawn spring treatment: First mow of the season, edging, moss management, and a spring lawn feed and scarify plan where appropriate.
• Weed prevention: Hand weeding in beds, spot treatment for persistent weeds, and advice on longer-term weed control.
• Patio and path spruce-up: Light pressure washing or brushing to lift algae and improve safety on slippery surfaces.
• Shrubs and perennials care: Divide overcrowded clumps (where suitable), stake early, and set a seasonal care routine.
• Borders and edges: Neat lines along lawns, paths, and beds for a crisp, cared‑for finish.
• Green waste removal: Cuttings, leaves, and debris cleared and disposed of responsibly. See green waste removal.

Limitations & Specialist Requests

We aim to be thorough, but some items require a bespoke approach:

• Large tree work: We handle small to medium pruning; significant tree surgery may involve a specialist partner. See tree pruning.
• Structural landscaping: For major redesigns, we can quote for soft landscaping, or recommend a landscape partner.
• Chemical weed control: We use targeted approaches where appropriate and in line with product guidance; some invasive species require specialist treatment.
• Wildlife considerations: We avoid disturbing nesting birds and will schedule or modify tasks to comply with regulations.
• Access limitations: Restricted access, lack of parking, or multi-storey access may affect timings and scope.
• Severe overgrowth: If the garden is heavily overgrown, our overgrown garden clearance service may be the right first step.

If you’re unsure, we’re happy to assess and provide a clear, tailored plan.
