Gardener in Orpington

Orpington is largely inter-war and post-war housing with long, generous rear gardens and easy access — good gardens to keep well.

Orpington gardens are typically long, reasonably wide and regular in shape, attached to semi-detached and detached houses with a path down the side. There is real lawn in most of them and room for borders, a shed, and usually a vegetable patch or greenhouse somewhere near the back.

It is the furthest of the areas we cover from base, at roughly nine miles, which we mention only because it affects how we schedule rather than what it costs. Regular Orpington visits get grouped onto the same days as the surrounding Bromley and Chislehurst work, which is how the set-day promise stays a promise.

Long gardens

As with the Corbett Estate streets, length means the far end gets forgotten. On a plot this size the bottom of the garden can be genuinely out of sight, and that is where an unnoticed bramble becomes a two-hour job.

Vegetable beds and greenhouses

More of these gardens have a productive corner than anywhere else we cover. We are happy to keep the paths, edges and weeds around a vegetable patch under control while leaving the growing to you — just tell us what is a crop and what is a weed, because in early summer that is not always obvious to a visitor.

Common questions

Questions about this service

Do you come out as far as Orpington regularly?

Yes. We group Orpington visits with the surrounding Bromley and Chislehurst work so regular customers still get a set day.

Will you work around a vegetable patch?

Yes, gladly. Tell us what is planted and we will keep the weeds and edges off it without touching the crop.
