Melbourn garden care
Fortnightly mowing through the growing season suits most Melbourn gardens, with hedges trimmed two or three times a year depending on the species. Front gardens along the busier routes into the village often need regular weeding to keep gravel and paved areas presentable.
Turfing and lawn renewal
Tired lawns in Melbourn respond well to the renewal package at £200 per 100m², combining scarifying, aeration and overseed. For lawns beyond recovery, turfing from £9 per m² labour with turf supplied at cost gives an instant new lawn.
