A local brief makes a difference
Gardeners in Westminster.
For a Westminster gardening request, tell us whether the work is for a home, shared residential space or business premises. Include the planting, building access and removal arrangements so suitable providers can price a defined visit.
Free to request. Providers price the work, access and waste removal; you choose whether to book.
Include your neighbourhood
For requests in Westminster, tell us where the property is — for example Marylebone, Paddington, Pimlico, St John’s Wood, Maida Vale — and give the full postcode. Availability is checked for your address.
Identify the customer and the outdoor space
For a Marylebone courtyard or planted frontage in Paddington, say whether it belongs to a household, a managed residential building or a business. Describe who can authorise the work and any permitted contractor hours. If a building manager needs documents or advance notice, share that requirement early. The provider can then decide whether they can meet the access arrangements as well as carry out the gardening.
Westminster’s residential garden service requires signup and booking
Westminster now describes a free bookable garden-waste service for eligible residential properties across all wards, introduced from April 2026. Residents must sign up before making a collection booking. The council directs business customers to a separate service. Confirm which arrangement applies to the property, what material is accepted and whether professional gardening waste is covered before relying on a residential collection in the quote.
Make container care a complete request
For a Pimlico terrace or Maida Vale planted area, specify whether the work is pruning, repotting, feeding, weeding or removing a container. Show pot sizes and the route through the building. Ask for new plants and growing materials to be identified separately, with advice on who will maintain them between visits. A general request to refresh the terrace should not silently include replacing every plant or moving heavy pots.
Compare a suitable visit, not only an hourly figure
Give providers the same access window, plant list and required finish. Ask whether the work needs an initial assessment and how removal, supplies and any waiting or handling are priced. For regular care, agree the tasks that recur and the process for proposing extras. Send the full Westminster postcode and photos on WhatsApp so the team can check the request against participating gardeners’ service areas and schedules.
Your garden. Your choice.
What does your Westminster garden need?
Tell us what needs doing. Providers set their own prices and you decide whether to book.
Choose the gardening work
Read the service guide, then add your Westminster postcode when requesting a quote. Prices are set by providers for the actual work.
Garden clearance
Clear unwanted growth and green waste so you can use your garden again. Describe what needs cutting, what should stay and what needs taking away.
Garden maintenance
Keep an established garden under control with visits planned around the jobs you need. Request regular care or a single maintenance visit without committing to a package.
Lawn mowing & grass cutting
Get a one-off cut or a regular mowing arrangement for your lawn. Include strimming, edging and clipping removal in the request if you want them priced together.
Hedge cutting & trimming
Request a trim, reshape or reduction for your hedge. Share its approximate height and length so gardeners can assess the equipment, access and work involved.
Garden tidy-up
Bring an untidy garden back into shape before a new season, a house move or time outdoors. Build a one-off job list around what matters most to you.
Weeding & weed control
Get help with weeds in beds, borders and other garden areas. Explain whether you want hand removal, a longer-term management plan or advice on regrowth.
Questions about gardening in Westminster
Is Westminster’s residential garden-waste service still limited to trial wards?
The council’s updated guidance says eligible properties in all wards can use the bookable residential service from April 2026. Signup and an actual collection booking are still required.
Can a business use the residential garden-waste arrangement?
The council directs businesses to a separate service. Ask for a suitable removal arrangement for the premises rather than assuming residential eligibility.
Can I ask for regular care of terrace plants?
Yes. Show the plants, container sizes and building access, and explain any watering or care available between visits. A gardener will assess scope and availability before booking.
