Seasonal Garden Tidy-Ups

Gardens change fast — and once things slip, they can feel overwhelming. Our Seasonal Garden Tidy-Up service is a practical, professional reset that brings everything back under control, improves presentation, and sets the garden up properly for the next season.

Whether you need a spring refresh, an autumn clear-out, or a winter cut-back, Project Garden delivers a tidy, structured finish with sensible horticultural timing — so the garden looks better now and performs better later.

What’s included

Every garden is different, but a seasonal tidy-up typically includes a tailored combination of:

Clearing leaves, debris, and overgrowth
Cutting back perennials and tidying borders (seasonally appropriate)
Weeding and hoeing beds and gravel areas
Pruning and shaping shrubs where needed
Hedge and edge tidying for a sharper look
Path, patio, and driveway blow-down
Bagging and waste management (removal available where required)
Quick garden “health check” for obvious issues (damage, disease, drainage)

This is a results-focused visit: a proper reset, not a quick skim.

Regular garden maintenance (weekly or fortnightly)

Hedge trimming

FAQs

How long does a seasonal tidy-up take?
It depends on the size and condition of the garden. We’ll advise after a quick look and can quote accordingly.

Do you take the waste away?
We can remove waste where required, or use your garden waste bin if preferred. We’ll agree this upfront.

Can you do a tidy-up before starting regular maintenance?
Yes — it’s often the best way to get the garden back to a manageable baseline first.

Do you prune everything back hard?
No. We follow seasonal best practice so plants stay healthy and perform well.
