Simply Garden Care

About Simply Garden Care 

 

Simply Garden Care provides reliable and affordable garden care to our local clients in Sanderstead, Warlingham and nearby.

 

We are a friendly couple who take pride in our work – whether it is helping you keep on top of those weeds, taking on tougher tasks: digging, mowing, hedging, pruning, trimming, edging, clearing a jungle or wholly transforming your green space, etc.

 

We offer flexibility and are happy to help you garden or take it all on for you, as suits. We can work on a regular or one-off basis or let you "see how it goes" and call us in when you need us.

​

While we have decades of gardening experience, our passion for gardens and our desire to learn formally and informally remains.

 

We carry full Public Liability insurance – although we have never claimed or needed to!

​

​

Our Costs

​

We normally charge £30 per hour (per person). It’s that simple and we think this offers great value in our area of South London.

​

We work honestly and reliably and we believe our costs compare very well.

 

We are happy to care for your garden on a weekly, fortnightly, monthly, one-off or some other basis - whatever makes sense.

 

We work locally and undertake all work ourselves; keeping our overheads down and value-for-money high.

 

We bring our own tools and we carry Public Liability insurance.

​

Caring for your garden shouldn’t cost the earth.

 

 

Your Garden

 

We believe your garden can always be a positive part of life. 

 

It is a simple truth that to best enjoy your garden, you will need to invest in its care. But, caring for your garden should not cost the earth.

 

Whether your garden is a modest patch or almost a park, informal or cultivated, well-tended or in need of some love; we can offer flexible care, passion and support to match your requirements.

 

We will listen to your needs, adapt our care to those and if you want offer our ideas and imagination too.

 

 

Your needs

 

We treat every client and their garden as unique. We like to meet and discuss your needs and aims in your garden.

 

If you are time-poor, we will ensure your garden looks good and is ready for you to relax and enjoy.

 

We can help transform your garden into a better space and / or keep it just so.

 

If you are a keen gardener, we can help you keep up with nature or take on the heavier duty tasks.

 

If everything is long overdue care and attention, we can tame things back from the wild.  

 

Whatever you reason for needing a gardener – we are willing listen and adapt what we deliver to meet your needs and care for you garden.

​

 

 

How we work?

 

We believe your gardener should be willing, flexible and reliable.

 

We mostly undertake regular gardening slots for many of our clients – working our way through the seasonal cycles of care that any garden requires.

 

We do undertake one-off work or projects, but these are usually outside the growing season (when our regular gardens demand our full attention).

​

All too often we hear stories of “gardeners” unwilling to undertake common tasks like weeding or digging over a bed, even dead-heading, planting or collecting leaves. We are happy to do no more than mow the lawn if that’s all you need – but we often do so much more.

​

​

Caring for the Environment

​

We try to garden in as environmentally-friendly manner as possible - e.g. by avoiding the unnecessary use of harsh chemicals. We prefer to use the many natural alternatives.

​

Whenever we can, we use quieter and eco-friendly cordless tools in preference to noisy petrol-engined alternatives.

​

We will help compost any green waste - if possible - creating a free way to enrich your soil a few months later.

​

We focus our work locally with an eye on the mileage to and from your garden.

​

Beyond Simply Garden Care?

​

We know sometimes gardens needs more than everyday care and maintenance.  

 

As a husband and wife team, we know our capabilities and our limits. If we feel something is beyond us – for example large tree surgery or stump removal - we be honest as say so.

​

​

​

Where we work?

​

As above, we consider the environmental cost of travelling to and from the gardens we care for. 

​

We may travel a little further for larger projects, but we are able to keep our costs down by taking the distance we travel into consideration.
