CB4 NORTH CAMBRIDGE

    Gardener in Arbury, Cambridge

    ELawnCare serves Arbury and the wider north Cambridge area on regular routes. Gardens around Arbury Road, Carlton Way and the surrounding streets are a mix of council-built and private housing with well-established plots.

    Most Arbury gardens have decent-sized rear lawns, mature hedges, and established flower beds. Fortnightly mowing and seasonal hedge cuts keep them looking cared for without a heavy monthly bill.

    What Arbury gardens need

    Arbury plots tend to be larger than the terraced gardens further south in Cambridge. Mowing is priced by area at £20 per 100m², so a bigger lawn costs proportionally more but the rate stays the same. Strimming and edging along beds, paths and fences adds £12 to a mow.

    Boundary hedges in Arbury are often mature and tall. Hedges above 2 metres are £8 per metre rather than £4, reflecting the extra time, height access and clearing involved.

    Turfing and lawn renewal

    Tired lawns in Arbury often respond well to the renewal package: scarifying, hollow-tine aeration and overseeding at £200 per 100m². For lawns that are beyond recovery, turfing from £9 per m² with turf at cost gives an instant result.
