Starting with your garden’s boundary:

🌳Hedging: 

With all the young birds now having left the nest, it’s the perfect time to book in hedge trimming.

🪵Wood Preservation:

To save money in the long run, schedule your fencing to be painted with wood preservative—this should be done annually or biannually.

🪚New Fence Panels:

If your fence panels are looking worse for wear, book a consultation to discuss replacement options.

✂️Pruning and Cutting Back Borders:  

October is the ideal time to prune and cut back borders. This helps promote healthy growth in the spring and keeps your garden looking neat through the winter.

🌱October Lawn Care Services by Clive’s Gardening Services:
