Garden maintenance in Surbiton
Regular gardeners from a Surbiton firm, overseen by Craig Davis, BSc (Hons) Horticulture.
Flourish Landscaping is based in Surbiton, on Egmont Avenue (KT6). Our maintenance round looks after gardens across Surbiton, Berrylands, Tolworth and Long Ditton, and our gardeners are in the town every week.
The gardeners are our own staff, trained in horticulture, not just mowing. The round is overseen by Craig Davis, BSc (Hons) Horticulture, who sets the work for each garden through the year.
What we do on a visit
- Lawns mown and edged, and fed in season.
- Borders weeded, deadheaded and cut back at the right time of year.
- Hedges and shrubs pruned to shape.
- Paths and patios swept and kept clear of weeds.
- Leaves cleared in autumn.
- Green waste taken away and recycled.
Looking after Surbiton gardens
Most Surbiton gardens are long Victorian and Edwardian plots on London Clay. Clay holds water in winter and cracks in summer, so we keep off wet lawns, mulch beds in spring and autumn, and time pruning and planting to the weather. Our guide to improving clay soil explains why.
We also look after the grounds of residential blocks in Surbiton. See communal grounds maintenance.
