The grounds around your premises create a big first impression. We keep lawns, beds and container planting to a professionally high standard at a competitive rate.

Seasonal Pruning
Knowing how and when to prune keeps plants, trees and shrubs healthy, vigorous and free from structural weakness — and encourages more flowers, foliage and fruit.

Testimonials
What our customers say
"Matt is to be commended on the excellent service and standard of work carried out in the restoration of our walled gardens. We value the extra time and effort put towards the project to ensure that it was delivered to budget and within the very tight time frame."
"We are so pleased with our new lawn and we now have jealous neighbours! Matt worked extremely hard and followed up with two visits to ensure that the lawn had progressed satisfactorily. We will definitely use him again and recommend him to others!"
"From start to finish, the service I received from Matt Hennessy was excellent — we were not only happy with the work completed on the garden but we also received help when dealing with our local council in order to gain access to the back of the garden. We were met with polite, reliable and professional service every time and to top it off it was good value for money. I would definitely use their services again in the future."
