From our experience…

Need advice on lawn care in London and Surrey?

On some occasions your lawn might only require our advice and implementation of correct grass mowing methods. In some cases the garden usually needs quick moss and weed killer applications, however we are also able to advise with a long term lawn treatment plan.

The mission we had since the very beginning of Grass Barbers lawn care services is to help and support the greenest and largest part of your garden – your lawn.

Lawn appearance shows the real situation in your garden. Some gardeners cannot recognise weeds within borders or think shrubs should be as tall as they are. All our gardening ninjas understand that unpleasant lawn experience is easily noticeable by your friends or even nosy neighbours. We always inform London gardeners to get lawn treated before it turn into wild flower meadow overtaken by moss and weeds.
