What You Need To Know About Gardening In Liberton
Liberton’s braes give almost every garden a slope: terraced lawns, stepped borders and views that make the maintenance worth it.
We handle the hedge cutting, the borders, the pruning and the weeding, plus one-off clear-ups, and everything we cut leaves with us.
First step is a free assessment. We agree what needs doing, confirm a written price and you decide from there. One-off or regular, no contract.
What’s Included
Everything Your Garden Needs
Build the visits around what your garden actually needs. Some customers add gardening to their lawn round; others book a one-off tidy-up first. Priced after a quick look, no contract either way.
Tree & Shrub Pruning
Pruning at the right time for the plant: shape kept, dead wood out, and growth encouraged where you want it.
Garden Tidy-Ups
One-off clear-ups and seasonal tidies that bring an overgrown garden back under control, ready for regular care.
Planting & Beds
Borders planted, beds refreshed and kept weeded, with plants matched to the spot they are going into.
Weeding
Beds, borders, paths and drives kept clear of weeds through the season, little and often rather than in one battle.
Fencing, Patios & Paths
Fence runs repaired or replaced, with patios and paths laid as part of our landscaping work.
Gardening advice
Davie’s Advice before you spend a penny
What Davie tells every customer, whether they book us or not. Free to ignore, but he’s usually right.
Cut hedges after the birds are done.
Nesting season runs March to August. Check before you cut, or save the big cuts for late summer.
Prune at the right time, not the tidy time.
Spring flowerers get cut after they flower, summer ones in late winter. Timing beats enthusiasm.
Weed little and often.
Ten minutes a fortnight beats a lost weekend in June. Or let us do the ten minutes.
Mulch your borders.
A good mulch in spring feeds the soil, holds water and smothers half the weeding before it starts.
Right plant, right place.
A sun-lover in deep shade will sulk no matter what you feed it. Match the plant to the spot.
Little cuts keep a hedge dense.
Trim light and regular and the hedge thickens. Let it stretch and you end up cutting into bare wood.
Got a question these don't cover? Ask Davie. He answers everything himself.

Gardening in Liberton: the local detail
What Matters Here for Gardening in Liberton
The gardens
Liberton's braes give almost every garden a slope: terraced lawns, stepped borders and views that make the maintenance worth it.
The hedges
Hedges on the brae grow unevenly, faster at the sunny end. We cut to a true line, not just to the growth, which is what keeps a sloped hedge looking level.
The approach
Because Liberton is already on our rounds, gardening slots straight in: one crew, one visit, lawn and garden handled together.
The round
Our Edinburgh rounds run every two weeks, usually Monday to Wednesday, and Liberton shares its round with Gracemount and Gilmerton. Assessments are free and prices are agreed in writing.
