I started what is an ongoing project for a customer. A couple of hours hard graft saw the removal of a long dead conifer including its roots. The area was completely cleared of weeds, leaving the little patch of poppies. One stubborn little ‘sticks’ roots were a bit of a surprise but we got there 😂

Another clean up job with the pressure washer. Slabs, concrete and decking all done 😎

Something other than lawns 😂 A bit of hedge thinning and tidying to allow people to pass more easily.

About 45 years my Dad and I laid this patio. Yesterday I gave it its first clean! Having never used a pressure washer I was a little sceptical to say the least but absolutely amazed at the result. Now I’ve just got to find the time to do the rest 😂

A busy Good Friday for me with a local customer. First of all there was the ‘small job’ of moving a huge grass shrub, which was successfully relocated to a quiet corner. Followed by the removal of something that had seen better days, grass that had encroached into the bed and planting its replacement. The final job was to edge the paving slabs and then home for a cuppa 😉

You order them I’ll pot ‘em up. A few hours work, included picking up some more compost. Now the customer just needs to tell me where she wants them 😉

Unfortunately, personal circumstances have prevented me from taking on any work. Now, a little later than I’d have liked, I’m back at it! So, get in touch if you need any help in the garden 😎
I do occasionally get to do some work on my own garden. Although there’s still a lot to do, this is one of my little projects that I started last year and it’s finally coming together ….
