The Gardeneer team provide a reliable, courteous and insured local service to keep your garden ‘looking just the way you like it’. Now in their 9th year, their four main services are regular garden maintenance, lawn care service, tidy-ups and landscaping. Regular maintenance typically covers mowing, edging, weeding and pruning plus leaf clearance in the autumn. The service can be anything from weekly to monthly to suit the garden and your budget, and includes removal and disposal of the trimmings. The lawn service is an annual programme to control moss and weeds then fertilise to promote healthy growth. As an additional option they remove thatch by scarification and aerate by hollow tining. Tidy-ups are for when things have just got a bit out of control or when preparing a house for sale or you have a special event and need the garden to look extra special. Landscaping includes patios, driveways, fencing, turfing, hedge trimming and tree work. Visit their website for testimonials and more detail.
