GARDEN CLEARANCE IN CLAPHAM

Proper gardens, properly cleared.

Clapham has some of the best back gardens this close to central London. Behind the terraces around Abbeville Road, Clapham Park and the Old Town there are long, narrow plots that look great when they’re looked after, and turn into a jungle when they’re not.

Renters often inherit an overgrown garden, and landlords want it sorted before the next tenancy. Owners come to us when brambles, sycamore saplings and ivy have taken over. We cut it all back, clear the ground and take away broken pots, old fence panels and anything else hiding in there.

Almost every mid-terrace garden here has no side access, so it all comes out through the house. We bag at the back and carry carefully through the hall.

Cuttings go for recycling as green waste. Some people book us once; others have us back every spring and autumn to stop it getting this bad again.
