Good afternoon, I am interested to find out how much garden clearance might cost with you. It's a standard size garden in Salford (M5 3WL) with numerous medium sized to large palm trees, some shrubs and a lot of bamboo that would need removing/digging out. Some of the palm trees we would like to keep and place in other areas in the garden, the small tree in the far right corner in the back and the tree stump on the left side need to be removed completely and the soil needs digging up and clearing off bamboo roots and some remaining bamboo plants. The soil in the centre of the garden needs non chemical weeding (we have cats so chemicals are not an option anywhere) and aerating. Additionally, any rubble that comes up during this or is already currently in the garden needs removing (previous owner created borders using big natural stone). I was wondering in what sort of time frame this could be done and how much it would cost roughly.

Alot of digging in this but can do it all and that includes new turf where needed and some material cost. Disposal will depend on amount pulled out to tip

Hi Marlene more than happy to do this for you but would need to see the trees that need removing and the groundwork that needs to be done so I can assess the offer and also agree the changes you want and give you an exact length of time as to how long the job would take. Can you give me more details or post some pics? Although again seeing the job firsthand would be better x

Hi this task is right up my street and easy to get from me to you. I have a plant science degree and I love gardening so I think we would make a good fit. As it's not just garden clearance that makes a garden as once the grunt work is done it's caring enough to then offer some options and knowledge to help your garden grow and develop. Any way I drone on ! In short would enjoy a crack at your task. So if you accept my offer we can PM and sort it out for you. I have all the tools, knowledge and contacts to get this done and done well. Am I over selling ? Hope not ;) yours in green spaces Mark

Questions(6)

What we're trying to achieve is the following: - Dig out all plants, including palm trees, shrubs, bamboo, except 1 big handkerchief tree in the back of the garden and move aside while garden is being cleared (we have some patio space that they can all go on, root balls in binbags is what we were thinking - Move biggest palm tree from front of garden (side of house) to back of garden once cleared - Clear out and remove all bamboo, including roots in soil - Clear garden of any rubble/natural stone and move aside - Dig up and aerate soil and remove any bamboo or other roots that come up during the process (excludes roots of a big eucalyptus tree stump that is still in the garden) - Remove all off cuts, roots etc and bring to tip At the end we want the garden to be empty, dug up, mostly root and weed free soil throughout so we can then move all trees and bushes etc into their new locations, but we will do this second part ourselves (unless we can get a hand moving the big palm tree into the back corner of the garden). We basically need a blank canvas to work with.
