Garden Redesign
A garden redesign is a significant project — and one of the most rewarding, when done well. It typically begins with a consultation to understand how you use and want to use the space, followed by a design proposal covering layout, planting, hard landscaping, and any features such as water elements or seating areas.
A full redesign may involve clearing the existing garden, altering levels, installing new drainage, laying hard surfaces, building raised beds or retaining structures, planting trees and shrubs, and seeding or turfing new lawn areas. It requires a combination of horticultural knowledge, landscape design skill, and project management capability. For larger projects in Grantham, look for a BALI-registered landscaper or a garden designer with membership of the Society of Garden Designers (SGD).

How Garden Size and Complexity Affect the Cost
The most fundamental factor in the cost of any gardening job is the size of the garden and the complexity of the work required. A small, well-maintained town garden will cost considerably less to maintain or clear than a large, overgrown rural plot. The number of distinct areas — lawn, borders, hedges, hard surfaces, water features — also affects the time and therefore the cost of each visit or project.
For larger gardens, specialist machinery (ride-on mowers, chippers, brush cutters) may be needed, which adds to the cost. A professional gardener in Grantham will assess your specific garden at a visit before providing a quote, so that the price reflects the actual work involved rather than a rough estimate based on a description over the phone.
Gardening FAQs — Seasonal Care Calendar
Spring is the most important season for garden preparation. Key tasks include the first lawn cuts of the year, scarifying and feeding the lawn, cutting back the previous year's dead growth in borders, weeding before weeds become established, mulching borders to suppress weeds and retain moisture, and planting hardy annuals, vegetables, and summer bulbs.
Summer maintenance focuses on keeping on top of growth: regular mowing, deadheading flowering plants to prolong flowering, watering during dry spells (early morning or evening is most efficient), trimming hedges, and staying ahead of weeds. It's also a good time to take cuttings from shrubs and to feed the lawn if it's looking pale.
Autumn is the time to cut back herbaceous plants (or leave them for winter structure — a matter of choice and wildlife value), rake up fallen leaves before they smother the lawn, aerate and overseed any thin areas of grass, plant spring bulbs, and protect tender plants. It's also a good time for garden redesign and hard landscaping work, as the ground is often still workable and contractors are less busy than in spring.
Winter is a good time for pruning roses and deciduous shrubs (when dormant), clearing paths of moss and algae, maintaining tools and equipment, and planning any changes for the following year. Hard landscaping — patios, paths, raised beds — can often be carried out in winter when there is less impact on the rest of the garden.
