-
Clearance from buildings, paths and planting

Who Our Pruning Service Is For (and Not For)
We’re a Great Fit If…
-
You’re in Derby or Nottingham and have established planting that needs skilled pruning
-
You value the health, structure and flowering of your plants (not just a quick cut back)
-
You have climbers like wisteria, clematis or ivy that need correct control
-
You want topiary or formal shaping maintained properly
-
You’re happy with a minimum spend from £250 (incl. VAT)
We’re Probably Not the Right Choice If…
-
You want the cheapest “cut everything back” job
-
You’re after a quick mow-and-go style service
-
You want removal of large trees handled as standard (we’ll advise if a tree surgeon is needed)
We’re upfront about this because it saves everyone time and ensures we focus on the Derby gardens where we can add the most value.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you prune Wisteria in Derby and Nottingham?
Yes — wisteria pruning is one of the most common requests. We focus on correct pruning to improve structure and flowering. Main pruning times for Wisteria are end of summer to keep it in check, then one in late winter (End of Feb/ Start of March), for pruning to promote flowering.
Can you prune clematis without reducing flowering?
Yes — the method depends on the clematis type and when it flowers. We’ll advise and prune accordingly. Knowing when the Clematis flowered previously and if you have pictures of the flower. can help speed up identification.
Do you do topiary work?
Yes — we provide topiary shaping and maintenance, plus formal shrub shaping.
Will you remove the waste?
We can. Waste removal depends on volume and access; we’ll confirm the best option when quoting.
