Gardens in Ebbw Vale are stacked up the valley sides, where terraced streets climb the slope and the wind has a clear run across the hilltops. Weeds, brambles and ivy take hold quickly in places like this. We clear overgrown gardens, old sheds, broken fencing and rubbish, and we carry the waste away.
We work for homeowners, landlords and people preparing to sell, and small sloping plots with awkward access are part of the job here. If your garden has gone beyond a simple tidy, tell us what you can see and we will explain how we would tackle it.
Wind is hard on gardens in Ebbw Vale. It lifts shed roofs, leans fences over and drives leaves and litter into corners. After a few winters of neglect, a hilltop plot can hold collapsed panels, split timber and heaps of debris tangled in dead growth. We take down what has failed, cut back what has taken over and load the lot, including the small pieces that blow under hedges.
If you plan a new fence or shed afterwards, a clear start helps, because fresh panels need firm, level ground and a clean line to follow, which is hard to find under old timber and weeds. We can pull out the old posts and leave the boundary open, so whoever builds the next one can measure and set it out without clearing the old one first.
Many homes in Ebbw Vale are in long terraces, with narrow gardens behind and a drop to the next street. Access may be through the house, along a back lane or up steps. We work that out at the start and carry waste in manageable loads. It means more trips than a garden you can drive up to, but it is entirely workable.
Slope also makes drainage and stability matter. As we clear, we watch for slumped soil, hidden steps and loose retaining walls, and we tell you if anything needs attention before you spend money on the garden. With wooded slopes close to the houses there are plenty of ivy stems and tree seedlings, so we take those out at the base, not just from the top.
When we finish in Ebbw Vale there is no pile left behind a shed or beside the gate, and no bags waiting for you to find a way to move them. The ground is clear enough to plan for a lawn, paving or fencing. We also cover Beaufort, Cwm, Brynmawr and Tredegar, so ask us if you are elsewhere in the surrounding valley.
A few jobs we have completed. We also work in and around Ebbw Vale.
Garden ClearanceWork in progress clearing a long-neglected Cardiff back garden, with a brushcutter cutting down tall grass and weeds across the lawn.

Garden ClearanceGarden clearance in Neath covering a gravel side passage and a narrow brick-walled yard, cut back from ivy and weeds to open ground.

Garden ClearanceA selection of clearance work in Newport, including an overgrown front garden cut back and bagged, and a bramble-choked plot with bins.
See the project →We work across South Wales. Pick your town to see how garden clearance works locally.
The cost of garden clearance depends on how much there is to remove, how easily it can be reached and what has to be taken away.
Read the guide →A gravel garden can cut mowing and weeding, but only if the ground is cleared and prepared properly first, and the planning matters more than the stones.

Tree surgery is priced job by job rather than from a fixed list, so this guide explains what moves the cost up or down and how to get a firm figure.
Read the guide →Yes. We can remove collapsed fencing, damaged sheds and fallen branches, cut back the growth around them and take everything away. Tell us what has come down, how big the garden is and where the access is, and we will plan around it.
That is common in terraced streets here. We carry waste out in manageable loads, protect your floors where needed and keep the route clear for you. Mention the steps, any gates and how far the garden is from the road when you get in touch, and we will tell you how we would handle the loads.
Yes. We can take down old panels and posts, clear the line and leave it ready for a new fence. If you would like help with the new fence as well, we can talk about it once the clearance is done.
Tell us what needs doing and where. We will come back to you, or call 07766 919630 if it is urgent.
