Pricing guide

Garden care pricing guide.

Every garden is different, so prices depend on the size, condition, access and work required. This guide gives sensible ranges while keeping final quotes clear and fair.

Small local lawn mow

From around £40

For simple local mowing where access, grass length and route planning are straightforward.

Regular garden maintenance

Typical range £45-£95+ per visit

Depends on visit length, garden size, frequency, access and agreed routine.

One-off garden tidy-ups

Typically from £120-£350+

The final range depends heavily on condition, overgrowth, waste volume and time required.

Hedge trimming

Quoted by hedge

Based on length, height, sides required, access, season and waste handling.

Green waste removal

By arrangement

Bagging or placing green waste on site is standard. Removal may be available by arrangement and quoted separately where suitable.

Small commercial grounds

Quoted separately

Commercial enquiries are reviewed manually and are not priced through domestic assumptions.

Estimate guidance

How to choose the right size, condition and access options.

These guides make the online estimate easier to use. They are practical bands rather than exact measurements, and final pricing is still confirmed after review. Good access and nearby parking help keep visits efficient. If access is through the house, down steps, along a narrow path or parking is limited, that does not necessarily mean we cannot help - it simply means we may need to allow more time or review the estimate.

Illustrated guide showing garden size bands from small to very large

Garden size guide

Choose the maintained garden area, not the whole property plot.

These are practical guides, not exact survey measurements. Use the maintained garden/lawn area that needs work.

Small garden

Up to around 50 m²

A typical courtyard, small rear garden or compact lawn/patio space.

Usually suitable for shorter maintenance visits if access is straightforward.

Medium garden

Around 50-150 m²

A typical family garden with lawn, beds/borders and some edges.

Often needs regular maintenance or a longer one-off tidy.

Large garden

Around 150-300 m²

A larger plot with multiple beds, a larger lawn, hedges or several zones.

May need a longer visit, recurring plan or quote visit.

Very large / complex garden

Usually over 300 m²

An extensive garden, multiple levels, long hedges, difficult access or heavy overgrowth.

Likely to need manual review or a quote visit.

Illustrated lawn measurement guide showing length by width

Lawn size in square metres

A rough length by width estimate is enough.

Estimate the area by multiplying approximate length by width. For example, a 10m by 8m lawn is about 80 m².

No lawn

Beds, patios, gravel or paved garden only.

Small lawn

Up to around 50 m²

Roughly a small courtyard or compact rear lawn.

Medium lawn

Around 50-150 m²

A typical rear garden lawn.

Large lawn

Around 150-300 m²

Likely to take longer and may need regular mowing.

Very large lawn

Over 300 m²

May need manual review depending on access, slope and grass length.

Illustrated garden condition guide from well maintained to heavily overgrown

Garden condition

Choose the closest fit without worrying about being exact.

The condition helps estimate time and waste. It is a practical guide, not a judgement on the garden.

Well maintained

Regularly cut or tidied, with light mowing, weeding or edging and little waste.

Usually more predictable.

Needs attention

Grass is longer than usual, weeds are visible or borders need tidying.

Manageable waste, but it may take longer than a routine visit.

Overgrown

Long grass, established weeds, brambles or heavy growth, with edges or borders less clear.

Likely to need a tidy-up rather than simple maintenance.

Heavily overgrown / manual review

Very long grass, dense brambles, blocked access, hidden obstacles or unsafe areas.

A quote visit or photo review is likely, and the price range may change after review.

Illustrated guide showing a side gate, driveway and garden path for access and parking

Access and parking

Good access and nearby parking help keep visits efficient.

If access is through the house, down steps, along a narrow path or parking is limited, that does not necessarily mean we cannot help - it simply means we may need to allow more time or review the estimate.

Easy access

Side gate or direct garden access, with normal garden tools carried through safely.

Parking nearby or driveway available.

Moderate access

Access through a house, narrow path, steps, shared access or limited parking.

May take extra time to move tools and green waste.

Difficult access

Steep steps, very narrow route, no nearby parking, long carry distance, awkward gates or restricted access times.

May require manual review or adjusted pricing.

Driveway / nearby parking

The easiest option for moving tools safely and keeping visits efficient.

Street parking

Usually fine if it is close by and there are no unusual restrictions.

Limited loading

May increase the time needed if tools or waste have to be carried further.

Permit / restricted parking

Tell us in advance so the visit can be reviewed sensibly.

Illustrated guide showing different green waste bag volumes

Green waste volume

Bagging or placing neatly on site is the standard option.

Removal may be available by arrangement and is normally quoted separately depending on volume, access and the appropriate disposal route.

Bag/place neatly on site

The standard option for most visits, using an agreed place, green bin or compost area where suitable.

Small amount

A few clippings or one/two bags. Removal may be available by arrangement.

Several bags

Likely to need separate review or an add-on quote depending on volume, access and disposal route.

Large volume

Manual review required before any handling or removal is agreed.

How pricing is worked out

  • Prices are confirmed before work is booked.
  • Simple local jobs may receive a clearer range than overgrown or access-sensitive work.
  • Regular maintenance is usually the best value where a garden needs ongoing care.
  • Travel is handled through practical service-area and route planning, not a public mileage table.
  • Green waste removal is not automatically included and may be quoted separately by arrangement.
  • Urgent, commercial, hedge-heavy or waste-heavy work may need manual review.

Important pricing notes

The minimum practical visit guidance is around £40 for a simple local job. One-off tidy-ups, hedges, urgent landlord work, commercial work and larger green waste requests need review because condition, access and waste volume can change the time required.

Travel and service area are handled through practical route planning. ClearPath Garden Care does not publish a mechanical mileage table, and the total is confirmed before anything is booked.

Not sure which price band fits your garden?

Garden size, access, condition, frequency and green waste can all affect the final price. The estimator is designed to give a sensible guide, and we will confirm anything that needs reviewing before work is agreed.
