Overgrown Gardens Cleared Across Truro and Mid-Cornwall
Jake takes on gardens that have got away from their owners — brambles taking over a back plot in Trelander, hedges grown out of shape behind a terrace in Malpas, a Cornish cottage garden in Feock that hasn't been touched in years. The job gets done in a single visit wherever possible, and everything cut, dug or pulled out leaves with him on the day.
Whether it's a one-off tidy-up before a property goes on the market, a regular seasonal cut-back, or a full strip-out of an overgrown plot, the approach is the same: turn up when agreed, work through it methodically, and leave the garden clear and accessible rather than just "tidier".

Prices reflect the size of the garden, how overgrown it is, and how much green waste needs to leave the site. Send Jake a couple of photos and he'll confirm a fixed price — most quotes are given without needing to visit first.

Questions Jake Gets Asked
Do you need to visit before quoting?
Not usually. Send Jake a few photos of the garden on WhatsApp and he can give you a fixed price in most cases without a visit.
How much green waste can you take away in one visit?
A standard van load covers most domestic garden clearances. Larger overgrown plots may need more than one load, and Jake will tell you upfront how many loads the job is likely to need.
Can you clear a garden before a house sale or probate?
Yes. Jake regularly clears overgrown gardens for properties going on the market, probate sales and lettings changeovers across Truro and mid-Cornwall.
Is green waste taken away the same day?
Yes. Everything cut, dug or dismantled is loaded and removed on the day of the job, so nothing is left behind for you to deal with.
