Work Guarantee — What a Professional Gardener Should Stand Behind
A reputable gardener in New Malden will stand behind the quality of their work. For planting, this typically means replacing any plants that fail within a reasonable period — provided they have been cared for as instructed. For hard landscaping such as patios or decking, a guarantee covering workmanship defects for a period after completion is standard practice for quality contractors.
For regular maintenance, the guarantee is implicit in the ongoing relationship — if the lawn develops problems or the hedges aren't looking as they should, a professional will address the issue promptly rather than making excuses. Ask about aftercare commitments when commissioning any significant piece of garden work, and make sure the terms are clear before work begins.
Patio and Decking Installation
A well-laid patio or decking area extends your usable outdoor living space and adds to the value and enjoyment of your New Malden home. Patio installation involves careful preparation of the sub-base, laying on a suitable mortar bed, and jointing — done properly, a patio should last for many years without sinking, cracking, or allowing weeds to penetrate.
Decking requires sound structural support, appropriate timber specification (hardwood or pressure-treated softwood), and correct gapping for drainage and movement. Both surfaces require planning in terms of drainage gradients to prevent water pooling against the house. A professional landscaper or gardener with hardscaping experience will manage all of these details and deliver a finished result that is both functional and attractive.

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 New Malden 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 — TPO and Protected Trees
A Tree Preservation Order is a legal protection placed on a specific tree or group of trees by the local planning authority. It is an offence to cut down, uproot, top, lop, or carry out any other work on a TPO tree without first obtaining consent from the council. The fine for breaching a TPO can be substantial.
You can check with your local planning authority — many councils publish TPO registers online. In a conservation area, all trees over a certain size are subject to notification requirements even without a specific TPO. A professional gardener or tree surgeon in New Malden will be familiar with local TPO areas and will advise you before undertaking any tree work.
You have the right to cut back branches overhanging your property to the boundary, but only if the tree is not protected by a TPO. The cuttings remain the property of the tree owner and should be offered back to them. You should not go onto a neighbour's property or cut beyond your boundary without permission.
Liability depends on the circumstances — whether the tree owner knew or should have known the tree was dangerous, and whether they took reasonable steps to address it. If a tree falls in a storm without prior signs of disease or structural failure, the owner is generally not liable. If the tree was visibly diseased and no action was taken, liability may rest with the owner. A professional tree survey can establish the health of trees and provide a defensible record of any action taken.
