“Just wanted to say a big Thank You to Olly for taking on the pre-winter tidy-up of our garden and patios in Shutford. Olly accomplished a staggering amount in the time he was with us and the result was fantastic - I just wish we had done this sooner!”

Garden clearance typically includes the removal of overgrown vegetation, lawn mowing, strimming, hedge trimming, pruning shrubs, clearing flowerbeds, removing ivy and brambles, weed control, leaf clearance, and the disposal of garden waste. Some services also offer jet washing and soil preparation for replanting.
Yes, professional garden clearance services can take care of everything from overgrown lawns to removing stubborn weeds and brambles. Hiring experts ensures the job is done safely, efficiently, and without the need for you to manage heavy equipment or waste disposal.
Clearing a badly overgrown garden usually starts with cutting back vegetation using strimmers or brush cutters, pruning overgrown shrubs, removing weeds, and clearing brambles. It often involves several stages of tidying, soil preparation, and disposing of large amounts of green waste.
The time it takes to clear a garden depends on its size and how overgrown it is. A small garden might take just a few hours, while larger or heavily overgrown gardens could take several days, especially if there is a lot of waste to remove.
The best tools for clearing an overgrown garden are usually heavy-duty strimmers, brush cutters, hedge trimmers, and pruning shears. For tougher areas like bramble patches, a sturdy lopper and spade may also be needed.
To clear a garden full of brambles, you need to cut the stems back to ground level using loppers or a brush cutter, then dig out the roots to prevent regrowth. It’s important to wear thick gloves and protective clothing as brambles are very thorny.
While it’s not automatically illegal to have an overgrown garden, in some cases councils can issue notices if a property becomes a public health risk or causes nuisance to neighbours. Regular garden clearance helps avoid any potential legal issues.
Yes, if an overgrown garden is causing a nuisance, blocking public pathways, or posing health risks, you can report it to your local council. They may inspect the property and issue a notice requiring the owner to clear it.
Yes, overgrown gardens can attract pests and rodents by providing ideal shelter and food sources. Dense vegetation, piles of debris, and neglected lawns create perfect conditions for rats, mice, insects, and other unwanted visitors.
