Garden care from £25 an hour.
I'm Xander. I look after gardens in the Three Counties and across the UK — regular visits, one-off rescues, fair prices.
These are the towns, but most of the work is in the villages between them. Wherever you are, I'm likely nearer than you would think. I take work further afield across England and Wales too.
The heart of it — £25 an hour with a one-hour minimum, fortnightly or every four weeks, around Ledbury, the Three Counties and southwest Bristol. Most visits take one to one and a half hours: mowing, edges, weeding — and whatever's grown since last time. Thorough with the work, straight about the hours.
£25
A lawn and a border or two · About an hour
£25-£40
A typical family garden · 1 to 1.5 hours
from £50
Big garden, or one that has got away · 2 hours or more
| Garden size | Time on site | Typical cost per visit |
|---|---|---|
| Small A lawn and a border or two | About an hour | £25 |
| Medium A typical family garden | 1 to 1.5 hours | £25-£40 |
| Large Big garden, or one that has got away | 2 hours or more | from £50 |
Travel is included around Ledbury and the Three Counties towns, and on Bristol round days — no call-out fee. A garden that has really got away is usually better started with a rescue day than a regular visit.

September is the month to put a tired lawn right and get bulbs in. After that it is leaves off the lawn and paths, and the last cut on the hedges.
