What we do

From a weekly cut to a plot that has not been touched in years. If it grows, we can deal with it.

Lawn mowing

Regular cuts or a one-off rescue. Edges trimmed, clippings taken away, and your lawn left looking neat, tidy and well cared for.

Verge and bank strimming

Steep banks, rough verges and awkward ground that a mower cannot reach. The right kit for the job.

Why People Have Us Back

We turn up

If we say Tuesday, we come Tuesday. If something changes, you get a message, not silence.

The right kit

Pedestrian mowers, brushcutters, hedge trimmers, chainsaw and jet wash. No job turned away for want of a tool.

We clear up after

All cuttings and green waste taken away as standard. You come home to a finished garden, not a pile of mess.

Where We Work

Based in Darlington, covering the town and the areas around it. Not sure if you are in range? just ask! it’s usually a yes.

Most of our work is in and around Darlington, but we regularly travel out to Middlesbrough, Stockton-on-Tees, Newton Aycliffe, Ferryhill and Spennymoor. Whether it is a domestic garden, a rental between tenants or grounds around a business premises, the service is the same and so is the standard.

Questions People Ask Before They Call

If yours is not here, ring or message and ask. No obligation either way.

How much does a gardener cost in Darlington?

Every garden is different, so we price on the work involved rather than a fixed list. Send a few photos on WhatsApp and you will have a figure back, usually the same day. Quotes are free and there is no obligation.

No. Clearing gardens that have not been touched in years is a large part of what we do. There is no need to tidy up before we visit, and nobody is judging the state of it.

Yes. All cuttings and clearings are removed as standard and disposed of responsibly. You are not left with bags at the kerb.

Both. Some customers have us weekly or fortnightly through the growing season. Others call once for a tidy-up before visitors, a house sale or the end of a tenancy.

We cover Darlington and the surrounding areas, out to Middlesbrough, Stockton-on-Tees, Newton Aycliffe, Ferryhill and Spennymoor. If you are unsure whether you are in range, just ask.

It depends on the time of year, as spring and summer book up fastest. Get in touch and we will tell you honestly when we can fit you in rather than keep you waiting.

What Customers Say

We are vetted and monitored by Checkatrade, and reviews are left by real customers after the work is done.

10/10 - exceptional work. Would recommend and certainly won’t have anyone but Rich do my garden and maintenance work from now on. Garden was an overrun eyesore, was unreal when he left. Proper grafter.

Rich transformed my garden from basically what was a rubbish tip into a proper garden space I can be proud of. Rich is very adept when it comes to communication, he kept me informed at every stage via text message. In person, he's a great lad, let's you know what's happening and then he gets on and does it. Hard working and great timekeeping. I will be recommending him to friends and family for sure.

Needed this massive clump of nasty and extremely tough overgrown bushes removed, Richard removed my cuttings, and removed everything including the root balls and left it spotless. Saved me what would’ve been months worth of green waste collections or dozens of trips to the tip. Highly recommended!

Very reliable service. Called last minute for help getting a large overgrown lawn sorted out and in 48 hours it was strimmed, mown and tidied up including the taking away of waste. It was no small feat but this man had a can do attitude and sorted it all out at a reasonable price despite being extremely busy himself with a full schedule of other jobs. Would definitely recommend 👌 top bloke.

I can strongly recommend this gentleman. He cleared my garden of weeds and made sure the roots were removed, not just the surface greenery. I am delighted with the finished result.
