Rental property garden maintenance in Godstone

Tidy-ups between tenancies and regular upkeep for let houses around Godstone.

Rental property garden maintenance in Godstone tends to go wrong in one of two ways. Either the tenant mows the lawn and nobody touches the hedge for three years, or the garden is left completely between lets. Both end the same way, with the next viewing starting at a gate full of brambles.

We tidy gardens between tenancies, keep let houses on a regular visit and get gardens looking right before photos and viewings. We’ll send photos when the job’s done, so you have a record of how it was left. If the property is empty, just arrange access with us and you needn’t be there.

Rental property garden maintenance in Godstone between tenancies

End of tenancy gardening usually comes with a check-out date attached. Tell us the date and we’ll work to it: lawn cut and edged, borders weeded, hedges trimmed once checked for nests, and every bit of waste taken away. On the sandy ground around the village, neglected beds fill with self-seeded weeds quickly, and a summer with nobody looking after it can leave a lawn thin and patchy. We’ll tell you honestly whether it needs a tidy or a proper clearance.

Garden maintenance: landlord or tenant?

Who looks after the garden comes down to the tenancy agreement. Often the tenant is expected to keep it tidy, while the landlord deals with bigger jobs like hedge reductions. Plenty of landlords find it simpler to book regular landlord garden maintenance and build it into the rent. The house stays presentable, the hedge never gets out of hand, and there’s less to argue about at check-out. Photos of the garden at the start and end of a tenancy save a lot of disagreement either way.

Landlords and developers in Godstone: your questions

Anything else, just ring. You’ll speak to the people who do the work.

Can you look after a let house in Godstone on a regular visit?

Yes. Monthly or fortnightly, depending on the garden. The tenant doesn’t need to be in, as long as we can get into the garden.

Do you work with letting agents?

Yes. We’re happy to take instructions from the agent and send photos after each job, so they can see the work without a site visit.

Do you prepare new-build plots and show homes?

Yes. Lawns cut and edged, beds weeded and tidy, and communal areas looking right before handover or a viewing day.

Can you deal with an overgrown hedge at a let property?

Yes, with the main cut between September and February, after a check for nests. If it’s a conifer that’s been left for years, we’ll tell you honestly how far it can be brought back.
