A Professional Approach to Your Property
Professionalism in a gardener goes beyond horticultural skill. It means turning up when agreed, communicating promptly when there's a problem, treating your property with respect, and being transparent about pricing. It means not cutting corners on disposal — taking all waste away or disposing of it correctly, not leaving it for you to deal with.
It also means giving honest advice, even when that advice isn't what you want to hear — flagging that a tree may be protected before starting work, or advising against a planting scheme that won't thrive in your soil conditions. Our listed gardeners in Skegby are selected for their professional approach as well as their technical competence.

Materials — Plants, Mulch, Bark, and Topsoil
For any gardening project that involves planting, surfacing, or soil improvement, materials form a significant part of the overall cost. The cost of plants varies enormously — from a few pence for small plug plants to tens of pounds for a large specimen shrub or semi-mature tree. The quantity required depends on the planting density and the size of the area being planted.
Bulk materials such as bark mulch, gravel, topsoil, and compost are typically priced by volume and delivered by the bag or by lorry for larger quantities. A professional gardener will be able to source these at trade prices and advise on quantities, but it's worth asking your gardener in Skegby to separate materials from labour in their quote so you can understand where your money is going.
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.
