An overgrown garden, step by step

The first visit to an overgrown garden is usually cutting the long grass and weeds, because only then can you see what's left underneath. Next comes clearing scrub and self-seeded saplings, and finally hauling it all away. Each of these stages has its own item in the catalogue, priced per metre or per cubic metre of waste. That's why a rough area in the job is the basis of a fair quote.

Old fruit trees can often be saved with rejuvenation pruning instead of being cut down. Say how many there are and how tall, and if one is dead or leaning, add a separate photo. With bigger trees an arborist's assessment helps. A plot in Zgierz or Pabianice is posted the same way as one in Łódź; just check travel and removal in the offer.

Questions about a gardener in Łódź

Do I need a permit to cut down a tree in my garden?

Sometimes. It depends on the species and trunk girth, and on who owns the plot. Check with the local council whether a notification is enough. The catalogue has preparing documents for a felling application, if you'd rather not do it yourself.

How much does tidying up a neglected garden cost in Łódź?

The gardener prices it in the offer, based on photos and your description. For Łódź the Warsaw price list on the site is just a guide. Removing branches and grass is usually charged separately, by volume.

Can the branches stay on site?

They can, if you have room. Chipped, they make good mulch under shrubs. Say in the job whether you want them taken away or just chipped.

The garden is far from where I live. Do I have to be there?

Not always. Agree access to the plot with the gardener you choose and ask for photos before and after the work. You pay them directly, however you agree.
