What we get called out for

  • Turf and gardens for new builds
  • Boggy clay lawns
  • Retaining walls on sloping blocks

Clay is the story here. It holds water through winter, sets like concrete in summer, and turf laid straight onto it struggles. New estates often hand over a yard of compacted fill with a thin layer of topsoil. Rolling blocks mean runoff heads for the lowest corner.

This shows what's behind the calls we get in the area. It isn't a reading of your garden. Your place might be quite different, and we check the ground when we come out.

The ground round here

Soil: Heavy clay

Mostly heavy clay, and on new estates, compacted fill from the build.

Holds water in winter, cracks in summer. Needs drainage and opening up.

That's the broad picture across the area. Soil can change from one street to the next, and new estates can have anything under them. We check yours on the day.

Gardens we mostly see

  • New estate backyards
  • Big lawns
  • Block retaining walls
  • Pool areas

New homes with a bare or builder's-grade yard, and older homes on big blocks with plenty of lawn.

Yours might be nothing like that. We look before we quote.

Cross-section of a garden. Plants sit on topsoil over subsoil. The sun comes in at an angle. Water runs through the topsoil to a drain. A buried pipe is marked with a flag before anyone digs.SUNTOPSOILSUBSOILPLANTSWATERPIPE MARKEDDRAIN
