CB23 WEST OF CAMBRIDGE
Gardener in Cambourne
ELawnCare serves Cambourne and its expanding estates. As a modern new-town development west of Cambridge, Cambourne has relatively young gardens that are still finding their shape. Builder-laid turf, sparse planting and immature hedges are the starting point for most plots here.
New gardens have different needs to established ones. The turf often struggles where the ground was compacted by construction traffic, borders lack structure, and hedges need a few more seasons before they fill out. Getting the basics right early saves years of catch-up later.

New gardens need a proper start
Builder-laid turf in Cambourne often sits on compacted subsoil and starts to thin within a couple of years. Turfing at £9 per m² labour with turf at cost replaces failed sections properly. For lawns that are thin rather than dead, the renewal package at £200 per 100m² gives a fresh start without the cost of full replacement.
Hedges on new estates grow quickly once they take. Regular trimming at £4 per metre from the early stages shapes them correctly instead of letting them run and cutting back hard later, which leaves bare patches.
Landscaping for Cambourne properties
Landscaping projects start from £950 and are common in Cambourne where gardens were handed over in a basic state. Fencing from £100 per panel labour, turfing, border creation, sleeper edging and gravel areas are the typical requests. Materials are quoted separately after a free site visit.
