CB4 NORTH CAMBRIDGE
Gardener in King's Hedges, Cambridge
ELawnCare covers King's Hedges and the surrounding streets on regular routes. The area is mostly 1960s and 1970s housing with a mix of council-built properties and right-to-buy homes, each with a decent-sized rear garden that benefits from straightforward, regular care.
Gardens here tend to be practical rather than ornamental. Medium lawns, panel or chain-link fencing, and hedges that grow fast because the soil is good. Fortnightly mowing and seasonal hedge cuts keep things looking right without overcomplicating it.

Practical garden care for King's Hedges
Most visits in King's Hedges follow the same pattern: mow at £20 per 100m², strim the edges at £12 added to the mow, and clear cuttings. Hedges along shared boundaries want cutting two or three times a year at £4 per metre up to 2m.
Hand weeding at £28 an hour tackles paths, gravel areas and beds that have got ahead of the owner. Monthly visits stop weeds getting established in the first place, which costs less over a year than periodic catch-ups.
