Why this matters
Garden work needs waste, access and seasonal limits agreed before attendance.
Gardening services cover tidy-ups, lawn care, hedge trimming, clearance, patio cleaning preparation and regular maintenance for presentable outdoor space.
A garden visit should be planned around access, waste, season and the finish expected, not just the number of hours. Perfect Living handles this as a managed service: useful details are collected first, the work is routed properly, the scope is confirmed and the client stays focused on the decision that matters.

How this service is normally priced and routed.
Photos normally give a useful price range. Inspection is recommended where condition, access, damp, heavy waste, multiple rooms or finish quality can change the scope.
Final pricing depends on photos, access, condition, materials, urgency and inspection where required.
Send wide photos of the garden, waste piles and access route.
Expert diagnosis
What we check before the job is confirmed.
Good property service starts before anyone arrives. The brief needs enough detail to send the right person, allow realistic pricing and avoid wasted visits.
We check Why it matters
Garden size and current condition Garden size and current condition changes preparation, product choice, labour time and whether the finished result is likely to last.
Photos of overgrowth, hedges and waste Photos of overgrowth, hedges and waste reduces guessing before dispatch, shows likely parts or tools and helps avoid a wasted first visit.
Access route through the property Access route through the property affects arrival planning, labour time, equipment choice and whether the work can be completed safely.
Whether green waste removal is required Whether green waste removal is required decides labour, vehicle capacity, disposal route and whether restricted items need separate handling.
Pricing and timing
Realistic expectations before you book.
Small tidy-ups may take 2-4 hours. Overgrown gardens, hedge work and clearance may need a half day, full day or quoted project.
- Volume of green waste
- Height and density of hedges
- Tools required

Can I do this myself?
DIY is sensible only when risk, tools and time are under control.
Some preparation can be done by a homeowner: taking photos, clearing access, checking manuals, measuring areas or buying materials after advice. Work involving water damage, electrics, structural risk, working at height, gas, tenant disputes or high-value finishes should be handled professionally.
Perfect Living guarantee
Clear scope, clean communication and an accountable route.
The garden should be left safer, clearer and more presentable, with realistic advice for the next maintenance interval. We cannot promise that every property will be simple. We can promise a clearer route: written booking details, practical triage, price guidance, insurance-backed confidence and a desk you can return to instead of starting from zero each time.
