Plant Reconditioning Southwest London
Every plant has the potential to look its best. It just needs the right care to get there. That’s where plant reconditioning comes in: our process for taking your plants from where they are now to where they should be, so they’re healthier, fuller, and built to last.
Over time, plants can become overgrown, undernourished, or simply neglected due to a busy schedule or lack of expertise, and that’s completely normal. Our job is to step in, assess what each plant genuinely needs, and put it back on track.
Plant reconditioning isn’t a one-size-fits-all treatment. It’s a considered combination of pruning, shaping, feeding, soil care, and repositioning, applied according to what your specific plants and garden require at that time of year. The result is a garden that doesn’t just look tidier in the short term, but is genuinely healthier and better set up to thrive going forward.
We proudly service areas around Southwest London, with gardener rates of £60 per hour + VAT (minimum 4 hours) or £450 per day + VAT.
Our Plant Reconditioning Services
Cutting Back Your Plants
Part of plant reconditioning is cutting back your plants. Depending on the time of year you need to start pruning, this is particularly common in Autumn. However, different plants need different services, this is what The Southwest London Gardener are here for. Cutting back your plants can make them healthier and last longer.
Shaping Your Plants
Shaping your plants helps your plants stop from overgrowing. Shrubs and bushes tend to be the most common and noticeable plant that needs shaping. The Southwest London Gardener is careful not to cut too close and will remove conflicting or crossing branches.
Feeding Your Plants
Plant nutrition is important and if you aren’t a professional you may overlook what plants need to for them to grow the best they can. The Southwest Gardeners are experienced in using fertilisers to improve plant growth rates and in boosting flowering and yields. However, you can get most nutrients in the soil you already have. We can advise and help you get the most nutrients out of your soil.
Relocating Garden Plants
Moving a plant includes breaking roots. We can extract your plants and place them in a new location, ensuring your plants won’t die and can grow straight away. We can also plant more plants as part of our soft landscaping service.
Improving Your Soil
Plants need to be in good soil conditions for the plants to give the best results. The Southwest London Gardener can improve your soil by using compost/manure and by removing debris and weeds.
