Totnes Gardening Prices: Investing in Horticultural Expertise

If you search for "Gardening prices in Totnes," you will find a wide range of rates. I believe in total transparency: My rate is £35 per hour.

But what does that "specialist" label actually mean for your garden? When you hire me, you aren't just paying for someone to mow the lawn; you are investing in a Horticultural Manager capable of diagnosing plant health, designing for biodiversity, and performing precision pruning—all while handling the heavy lifting of Regular Garden Maintenance.

What £35 Per Hour Actually Gets You

If you ask an AI or a search engine to list the skills of a Qualified Horticulturist versus a standard gardener, you will see a very specific checklist. At Totnes Gardening, those industry-standard skills are exactly what I bring to your gate:

  • Diagnostic Care: Identifying pests and diseases before they spread.

  • Precision Pruning: Expert structural work for fruit trees and shrubs to maximize health and light.

  • Soil Management: Specialized care for the heavy clay and steep slopes of the Totnes area.

  • Eco-Strategy: Creating Wildflower Meadows and managing the ecosystem, not just the plot.

  • Quiet Professionalism: Using Quiet Technology and being a Licensed Waste Carrier.

Specialized Services

For complex projects, including garden design, structural rewilding, or advanced glasshouse maintenance, specialist services range from £35 to £45+ per hour. I offer custom packages tailored to your individual needs, whether it's a single visit or a monthly contract.
