Our story
The gardener people keep the number of.
Gardening for St Albans is Paul Scammell — a friendly, dependable local gardener who has been keeping St Albans gardens looking their best for over ten years. It's a one-man round by design: the person you speak to is the person who turns up, does the work, and takes pride in it.
The work runs from a weekly mow to taming a garden that's got away from you — lawns, hedges, weeding, clearances and general upkeep. Whatever it is, the approach is the same: reliable, first-class work, a friendly call the day before every visit, and the garden always left neat.
What clients mention most isn't just the gardening — it's the manner. Reliable, personable and honest, with fair, competitive prices and no job too big or small. Many have had Paul for eight, nine, ten years — which is why the reviews read the way they do, and why people keep passing his number on.

“Paul has mowed our front and back gardens for around 7 years now. Contacts me in the spring to check that I’d still like the service which runs through to autumn. Paul worked within my budget to enable me to get the gardens done. He also does our hedge trimming as and when required. Service suits…”
