Garden clearance

Garden clearance can mean very different things, from dealing with an overgrown corner to discussing vegetation across a larger area. A useful enquiry explains what is there now, what you want removed and what must stay. Avoid describing everything simply as waste if some plants or features are to be retained.

Describe the area and access

Include an approximate size, the main types of growth and how the garden is reached. Steps, narrow gates, long paths and shared access can all affect the discussion. Photographs taken from a safe position help show the layout without requiring you to enter dense or uncertain areas.

Tell us about any items mixed into the vegetation, such as old fencing or stored materials. Do not handle sharp, unstable or unidentified items to photograph them. Describing what you can see is enough for an initial enquiry.

Separate clearance from other work

Explain what you would like the space to look like afterwards and what you plan to do with it. Clearance should not be assumed to include landscaping or every type of material removal. The scope needs to be discussed and agreed.

If the work includes hedge cutting or a standing tree, mention that separately. See tree surgery for tree-related enquiries. Raise any wildlife, boundary or permission concerns before work is arranged.
