Garden Maintenance
Lawn Mowing
Regular, well-timed mowing is arguably the most important single thing you can do for your lawn. Cut too infrequently and grass becomes coarse; cut too short and you stress the sward and encourage weeds and moss. Our team understands how to mow properly — adjusting frequency and cutting height through the season to keep your lawn in peak condition.

Lawn Mowing in Cheltenham & Gloucestershire
We cover a wide area across Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, Winchcombe and the surrounding Cotswolds villages. Whether you have a small town garden or a large country lawn, we have the equipment and expertise to keep it looking its very best throughout the growing season.
We use professional-grade mowers that leave a clean, crisp finish — and we always collect and remove grass clippings, which is important for lawn health as well as aesthetics. Clippings left on the surface can cause thatch build-up and dull the appearance of an otherwise healthy lawn.
Cutting Heights & Seasonal Adjustments
Cutting height has a significant effect on the health and appearance of your lawn. During dry summer spells, raising the cut by 5–10mm can significantly reduce heat and drought stress on the grass. In spring and autumn, lower cuts combined with scarification help to reduce thatch and encourage fresh, dense growth.
We monitor conditions throughout the season and adjust our approach accordingly — never cutting wet grass, always mowing when the lawn has had a chance to recover from previous cuts. A consistent schedule, properly carried out, will transform even a tired lawn within a single season.

Every garden starts differently. We begin by listening — about your property, how you live, and what you are hoping this outdoor space could become. You may have a clear brief or just a feeling that something needs to change. Both are the right place to start a landscaping project.
