Professional garden clearance to transform overgrown, neglected, or chaotic gardens into manageable spaces. We remove everything - vegetation, debris, rubbish - and leave you with a clean slate ready for whatever comes next.
### When Gardens Get Out Of Hand
Gardens get overwhelming for many reasons. Illness, bereavement, house moves, new babies, work pressures - life happens and gardens suffer. What was manageable becomes impenetrable. Brambles take over, trees self-seed, rubbish accumulates, and it feels impossible to tackle.
We handle complete garden clearance without judgment. Whether it's been neglected for months or years, whether it's overgrown vegetation or accumulated junk, we clear it systematically and remove everything from site. You get your garden back.
### What We Clear
**Vegetation:** Overgrown borders, brambles, nettles, saplings, ivy, undergrowth, overgrown lawns, dead plants, anything green that's taken over.
**Debris:** Fallen branches, hedge clippings, leaf buildup, composted piles, anything organic that's accumulated.
**Rubbish:** Old furniture, broken equipment, construction waste, general garden junk that's been dumped or abandoned.
**Structures:** Rotten sheds, collapsed fences, broken greenhouses - we can dismantle and remove garden structures as part of clearance.
We work methodically, clearing section by section, piling waste, loading transport, and removing everything from site. Nothing gets dumped in your bins or left hidden at the back. Complete removal.
### What You're Left With
A cleared garden showing what you actually have to work with. Borders will be visible. Lawn areas will be obvious. Existing plants and structures will be revealed. You'll be able to see the space properly and decide what happens next - whether that's landscaping, simple tidying, or ongoing maintenance.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Garden clearance reveals opportunities and problems. Sometimes you discover lovely plants hidden under undergrowth. Sometimes you find drainage issues or structural problems that need addressing. It's all useful information for planning what comes next.
### Done Right vs Done Wrong

Good to Know
**Combine with:** Border clearance (for ongoing maintenance), stump grinding, grass seeding **Related services:** Ongoing garden maintenance, landscaping, fence installation Garden clearance is the reset button. It doesn't create a finished garden, it reveals what you have to work with. After clearance, you'll need to decide on next steps - whether that's basic maintenance, landscaping, or leaving it simple. We find all sorts during garden clearance. Sometimes valuable plants hidden under weeds. Sometimes buried treasure (rarely). Sometimes problems like drainage issues or subsidence. Sometimes just years of accumulated chaos. Whatever we find, we'll show you and advise honestly. Protected species and nesting birds complicate clearance. If we discover active nests, we legally must stop until birds fledge. If you're booking for specific dates (property sale, moving date), book early to allow for delays. Garden clearance is often emotional. Especially if it's a loved one's neglected garden or somewhere that got away from you during difficult times. We work respectfully and without judgment. Gardens get overwhelming. It happens. We just sort it out.
