🌱 Our biggest project undertaken to date! 🌱

Spade in the Ground teamed up with Leaf It To Me Garden Maintenance to transform this previously unusable back garden into a fresh, level and functional lawn ready for the customer to enjoy.

Here’s how we tackled the project:

🔹 Cleared the garden – removing all unwanted weeds, debris and unsuitable material from the soil.

🔹 Rotovated the existing soil – breaking up the heavily compacted ground to improve airflow, drainage and water pe*******on.

🔹 20 tonnes of topsoil – brought in to build up and create the correct levels and slope, giving us the perfect base for the new seed

🔹 Grass seed – carefully spread across the prepared topsoil, ready to establish and create a healthy new lawn.

🔹 Irrigation system installed – ensuring the new seed had the consistent moisture it needed to give it the best possible chance of germinating and establishing.

⏱️ 3 weeks on and the results are really starting to show!

What was once an unusable garden is now a fresh, healthy-looking lawn ready for the customer to enjoy. 🌱👏

A huge transformation and one we’re extremely proud of!

🌿 A look at some of our recent work! 🌿

We’ve been busy helping our customers keep their gardens looking their very best. From weeding and border maintenance to hedge trimming and bringing tired decking back to life, every job is completed with care and attention to detail.

A well-maintained garden not only looks fantastic but also creates a space you can truly enjoy all year round.

Back in May we completed this lawn transformation, and today we returned to add the finishing touches.

We installed stepping stones and a small patio alongside the sleeper border to create a practical hard-standing area, making it much easier to maintain the plants without walking on the lawn.

A simple addition, but one that makes a huge difference to both the appearance and the long-term usability of the garden. 🌿👌

🌿 Herb Garden Transformation 🌿

What a difference a few days can make! Swipe to see the before and after. 👀➡️

This tired, overgrown herb garden was in need of a fresh new look. We removed the old rotten sleepers, and installed brand-new sleepers creating a fresh new look

To make the space more practical and visually appealing, we laid a block paving pathway through the centre, breaking the garden up into individual planting beds. The result is a much neater, more accessible herb garden

A simple redesign has completely transformed this space into a feature the customer can be proud of

A few pictures of another job completed The old, tired sleepers have been removed and replaced with new pine sleepers, giving the area a fresh new look.

The patio grout, which had started to fail and come away in places, was completely removed before the patio was thoroughly jet washed. The patio was then professionally repointed, leaving it clean, secure, and looking as good as new.
