Dulwich gardens can look spectacular, but they need consistent care to match the area’s standards. We provide regular garden maintenance for homes across East Dulwich and Dulwich Village, including reliable mowing, pruning and leaf clearance. Whether you’re near Dulwich Park or closer to Dulwich Picture Gallery, we’ll keep borders crisp and lawns healthy. Visits can be weekly, fortnightly or tailored around the seasons.
The Dulwich area is known for Georgian and Victorian houses, plus larger detached properties with mature planting. These gardens often include established hedges, formal lawns, long borders and shaded corners that encourage weeds and moss. We adapt our approach to the garden’s layout, access and planting style, ensuring tidy results without over-cutting or stressing shrubs. If you’re in SE21, SE22 or SE24, we’ll plan maintenance that suits your property and lifestyle.
We start with a quick on-site assessment, then agree a clear task list for each visit—lawn mowing, hedge trimming, weeding, pruning and seasonal care. Our team works neatly, protects paths and planting, and removes green waste as agreed. You’ll get consistent standards from the same trusted crew, plus practical recommendations to improve lawn health and plant performance over time. We’re based just 20 minutes away, so scheduling and follow-ups are straightforward.
Garden maintenance in London Borough of Southwark often means working with mature trees, heavy leaf fall and shaded lawns. In Dulwich, access can be tight on some streets, so we plan equipment and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also factor in parking and timed visits where needed, especially around schools and busier routes. The result is efficient, considerate service that suits period homes and larger plots alike.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For garden maintenance Dulwich area homes typically budget £30–£60 per hour depending on the tasks, access and equipment needed. Most regular visits come to around £100–£300 per visit, based on garden size and how much work is required (for example, mowing and weeding versus pruning and hedge cutting). After an initial tidy-up, ongoing visits are usually quicker and more cost-effective.
Most visits take 2–5 hours, depending on garden size and what’s on the list that day. A straightforward mow, edge and quick weed can be done faster, while hedge trimming, pruning and leaf clearance add time. Overgrown gardens often need a longer first visit to reset the space, then regular visits keep everything manageable. Weather and seasonal growth rates also affect timings.
Routine garden maintenance such as mowing, weeding, pruning and hedge trimming is usually permitted and doesn’t require planning permission. The main considerations are working hours, waste disposal and any restrictions if your property is listed or in a conservation area. If tree work is involved, we’ll advise on potential Tree Preservation Orders and help you check with Southwark where necessary before proceeding.
Yes. We stand behind our workmanship and provide a 10-year warranty on qualifying landscaping installations we carry out (such as paving, decking, fencing or structural garden builds). For ongoing maintenance, we guarantee the agreed tasks are completed to the specification on each visit, and we’ll put right any issues caused by our work. Plant performance can vary with weather and site conditions, but we’ll always advise best practice.
Maintenance can be tailored to your garden and preferences, from formal lawn care and crisp edging to softer, wildlife-friendly borders. Popular options include seasonal mulching, rose and shrub pruning, hedge shaping, leaf clearance, and lawn treatments such as scarifying and overseeding. We’ll recommend a plan based on light levels, soil condition and how you use the space, then schedule visits to match the growing season.
