Built for small

Small properties, done properly

Most of the gardens I look after sit on lots of about 5,000 sq ft and under. That is the size this service is built around, and it is the size the big crews would rather drive past. A town lot, a semi, a bungalow with two beds and a strip of grass: that is the job, not the leftover.

Bigger properties are welcome too. I have the tools and the time for them, and I will say so plainly in the estimate if a job is more than one gardener should take on.

How it works

From first walk to full bloom

01

Walk the property

We meet at your place and walk the yard together. I listen to what you want from it, look at what is already growing, and take a few notes. The walk is free.

02

An estimate

First an estimate: the scope of the work and the range it should land in. I take up to 72 hours to put it together and get it back to you.

03

Then a quote

Once the scope is settled the estimate becomes a quote: a firm price on one clear page. No packages, no upselling, and nothing starts until you say go.

04

The quiet work

Battery tools and hand tools only. The work is quiet enough to talk over, and the only thing left behind is a better garden.

05

Season to season

Regular rounds keep beds and grass from ever getting away from you, and each visit ends with a quick note about what was done and what is coming next.

"The first thing I noticed wasn't the garden, it was the quiet. Then the garden caught up, and now it's the nicest thing on the street."

Where I work

Close to home, on purpose

Staying within a short drive of home keeps visits reliable and travel short, which means more time with hands in the soil.
