Book a visit

Visits and regular slots go straight into the diary: pick what you need, then a day and a time. No waiting for a call back.

Design and landscaping are quoted after a visit: book the free garden visit, or send photos.

Prices are sample figures. On your site this diary is Setmore’s, set up and looked after by us.

What happens after you book

  1. A confirmation emailIn your inbox the moment you book.
  2. A reminder emailThe day before, so the side gate gets left open.
  3. Straight into Tom’s diaryOn his phone, in the diary app. No ringing round.

What we do

One-off jobs or a regular round. Each service has its own page with what’s included, when it’s best done and a sample price.

Before and after

Two recent jobs. Most of our work starts the same way: a few photos sent from a phone.

Before: a weathered picket fence almost swallowed by overgrown hedging and long grassBefore
After: a mown grass walk between neatly clipped hedgesAfter
Overgrown boundary, PrestburyTwo days. Hedges cut back by a metre, the grass walk found again, nine bags of green waste taken away.
Before: a rusty wheelbarrow standing in knee-high grass and weedsBefore
After: a mown lawn in neat stripes beside a clipped hedgeAfter
Lost lawn, Charlton KingsCut down, scarified and overseeded in September. On the fortnightly round ever since.

The garden year

A garden doesn’t stop in November, and neither do we. This is what our round looks like, month by month, and why a winter visit saves you a spring clearance.

When each gardening job is done through the year: main season, lighter work, or not usually.

Mowing every visit, hedges cut once the birds have fledged, deadheading and watering.
Autumn
Lawn repairs while the soil is warm, leaves cleared, perennials cut back, bulbs in.
Winter
Fruit trees and roses pruned, bare-root hedging planted, the big clearances done.

    For lower-maintenance gardens that still want to look kept.

    A longer visit once a month, all year, with the hedges included in their season.

    from £52 a visitsample figure

  • Four seasons

    For people who do the weekly jobs themselves.

    Four big visits: spring tidy, summer hedges, autumn cut-back, winter pruning.

    Our garden had got away from us after the baby. Sent three photos on a Sunday night, had a price on Monday, and two days later you could see the lawn again. Every bag gone, not a leaf left on the drive.

    They've done our fortnightly round for three years. Same face every time, gate shut behind them, and a note through the door if they've spotted something. The hedges have never looked better.

    We asked for a plan for a north-facing bed where nothing grew. It's now the best part of the garden. They knew exactly what would cope with the shade and the clay.

    Laid a small stone patio by the back door so I can sit out in the mornings. Neat, level, and finished on the day they said it would be.

A price from your photos

For patios, planting plans and clearances: we can’t price a garden from a description, but we can from a few pictures.

  1. Send a few photosFrom different corners, with something for scale.
  2. Get a price, usually next daySmall jobs priced from the photos. Bigger ones, book a free garden visit and we come and look.
  3. Agree a dateWe put it in the diary and turn up when we said we would.

Rather talk? Ring 07700 900634 or the office on 01632 960634.

One-off or regular?

Up to six. Something for scale helps: a fence panel, the back door, the shed.

We reply within one working day, usually with a price.

The business on this page isn't real, so this form goes nowhere. On a real Get Booked site it emails the owner the moment someone asks, photos and all: the way in for the jobs that need a price before a date.
