Good to Know
> ☀️ **Weather dependent?** Sort of. Can't jet wash in pouring rain, but most of the work can be done in any weather. Best in dry conditions so the patio dries properly. **Got new furniture arriving?** Book me for after delivery. I'll get rid of all the packaging at the same time - saves you a tip run. **Decking as well as patio?** Decking takes a bit longer to clean properly and often needs the odd board fixing. Factor an extra hour. **Old Exeter gardens** often have lovely original flags or cobbles. They clean up beautifully but take longer than modern slabs - worth the effort though.
Frequently Asked Questions about Summer garden prep in Exmouth
What does summer garden prep actually include?
Clean the patio, get furniture out and assembled if needed, position planters, general tidy-up of winter mess, maybe fix a wobbly fence panel. Whatever needs doing to make your garden summer-ready and usable again.
Can you help with planting up pots and containers?
I can position them and fill them with compost, but the actual planting you'd need a gardener for. I'm good at the grunt work - moving, cleaning, assembling - rather than the horticultural stuff.
Do I need to have everything ready before you arrive?
Just point me at what needs doing. If furniture's in the shed I'll drag it out. If the patio needs jet washing I can do that. I'll work with whatever state the garden's in - that's the point.
What if I need garden furniture assembled?
Included. I do loads of flat-pack furniture assembly, so garden furniture is no different. Bring everything out, build it, position it where you want it.
Can you do this and then regular maintenance through summer?
Absolutely - get it ready in spring, then maintain it through the season. Makes sense to do both. I'll give you a quote for the prep, then we can agree frequency for maintenance.
