Garden maintenance typically starts from around £40 per visit for a standard residential garden, though the exact price depends on the size of the garden, how much work is needed, and whether it's a one-off or a regular round.
Three things drive the price more than anything else: the size of the garden, its current condition, and the frequency of visits. A small, well-kept garden on a fortnightly round costs less per visit than a large or neglected garden needing a longer session to bring it back under control.
One-off visits are usually priced slightly higher per visit than a regular arrangement, since there's more unpredictability in exactly what's needed and no ongoing relationship with the garden. Regular customers often find the price per visit settles once a maintenance routine is established, because the gardener isn't starting from scratch each time.
It's worth getting a specific quote rather than assuming a generic guide price applies — a garden that's mostly lawn costs less to maintain than one with several beds, borders and hedges needing attention on every visit. Gardens across Preston, Penwortham, Leyland and the wider Lancashire area vary a lot in size and layout, so a specific quote for your own garden is always more accurate than a generic figure.
