About The Service

​​​​​​What I Do

​​​​​​

For those that have loved their garden their whole lives, it can be hard when we start to struggle physically to keep the garden in the same state that we love to see it in.  Afterall, a garden refuses to slow down even if you feel like you'd like to!  My service is specifically tailored to help those who need that little bit of help to keep in top of things.  A little regular support can help you or a loved one continue to enjoy the garden and keep the feeling of overwhelm at bay.

​​

I offer a regular gardening service especially suited for those supporting their elderly or vulnerable relatives or those looking for a little extra support themselves.  With an emphasis on keeping you or your loved one safe and keeping the garden looking beautiful all year round, this is a service you can trust.  And to top it off, I actually will turn up, at the designated time - every time. 

​​​​​

Regular Garden Maintenance

With a booked in, regular time slot, I take care of all the essentials, including:
✔️ Lawn mowing & edging
✔️ Weeding, pruning & shaping
✔️ Deadheading
✔️ Planting

✔️ Watering & pot maintenance
✔️ Pond cleaning & greenhouse washing
✔️ Tending garden furniture

✔️ Looking after fruit or vegetables.
✔️ Even a garden centre run—I’ll grab those heavy compost bags for you!

​​​​​​​

Touchpoint Service​​​​​​

​​​​

I can also provide a Touchpoint Service with explicit permission from all parties.  I can send a text or email to a chosen relative letting them know what's been done in the garden, if the garden owner has been seen, and any perceived issues with wellbeing. Sometimes, a simple message can bring great peace of mind.

​​​​

*Note, communication is for the purpose of information and  reassurance.  Eldertree Gardening is not a care service and cannot accept responsibility for the wellbeing of an individual before, during or after a gardening visit.

What I Don’t Do

​​​​​​​

There are some garden jobs better lefts to those with specialist skills.

​​​​​​​

❌ Landscaping services
❌ Building beds or borders
❌ Large tree management

❌Tall hedges (Over 6ft)

​​​​​​

 Additionally, I don’t provide most consumable goods as part of my standard service, though I do regularly buy smaller items such as grass seed and compost for top dressing pots. However, if you’re unable to get to the garden centre, I’m happy to pick up items like bedding plants, grass seed, woodchip, topsoil, etc. The cost will be the purchase price only—there are no additional fees.
