If your outdoor space needs regular attention or a one-off reset, our team delivers practical, high-quality garden maintenance across SE26. We look after lawns, borders and shrubs with careful pruning, weeding and planting that suits the season. Homeowners near Sydenham Wells Park and Bell Green rely on us for tidy, well-managed gardens without the hassle. Every visit includes a clear plan and thorough waste removal.
Sydenham’s leafy streets and period housing often come with mature planting, established hedges and shaded corners that need knowledgeable care. We regularly work on Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and period conversions where access can be tight and boundaries are close. Whether you’re in Forest Hill or Lower Sydenham, we tailor cutting heights, pruning methods and planting choices to the garden’s light levels and layout. The result is a garden that looks right for the property and stays manageable.
We start with a quick assessment, then schedule the right mix of lawn care, hedge trimming, pruning and seasonal maintenance. Our gardeners arrive with the correct tools, protect paths and planting, and leave the site clean with waste removed. You’ll get straightforward recommendations rather than upselling, plus consistent standards visit to visit. Local homeowners choose us because we turn up when agreed and keep gardens looking cared-for all year.
As gardeners contractors in London Borough of Lewisham, we’re used to Sydenham’s mix of shaded plots, mature trees and varied soil conditions. Areas near Sydenham Hill Wood and Dulwich Wood can bring more leaf litter and root competition, so we adjust mowing frequency, mulching and planting choices. Parking and access can be limited on residential roads, so we plan loading and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also work respectfully around shared paths and close boundaries common with period conversions.

Costs depend on garden size, growth level and how much needs clearing. For regular maintenance in SE26, many homeowners budget around £45–£80 per hour for a two-person team, or £120–£250 for a typical half-day visit. One-off garden tidies with heavy weeding, pruning and waste removal often fall around £250–£650+. We’ll confirm scope first, then price fairly for the time and disposal required.
A straightforward lawn cut, edging and light tidy can take 1–2 hours. A more complete visit—hedge trimming, pruning, weeding, planting and a full tidy—often takes half a day for a small to medium Sydenham garden. Large plots or mature hedges can take a full day or more. Timescales vary with access, green waste volume, weather, and whether you want shaping work or selective pruning.
Most routine garden maintenance—mowing, hedge trimming, pruning, planting and weeding—doesn’t need permission. However, restrictions can apply to protected trees (Tree Preservation Orders) and work within conservation areas, which parts of Lewisham may include. If tree work is involved, we’ll advise on checks and can help you confirm requirements before any cutting. We also follow responsible waste disposal rules for all green waste removed from site.
Yes. We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on qualifying installed elements where applicable (for example, hard landscaping or built garden structures completed by our team). For gardening and maintenance, we guarantee the standard of the visit: agreed tasks completed properly, site left tidy, and waste removed as specified. If something isn’t right, tell us promptly and we’ll return to put it right. Plant performance depends on weather and aftercare, so we provide clear guidance.
We can maintain existing planting or refresh borders with options suited to Sydenham’s mix of sun and shade. Popular choices include evergreen structure planting, pollinator-friendly perennials, low-maintenance groundcover for tricky corners, and seasonal colour in pots and beds. For lawns, we offer mowing plans, feeding, overseeding and moss control. We’ll recommend plants and maintenance levels based on your garden’s light, soil, pets/children, and how much time you want to spend on upkeep.
