Overgrown Lawn Recovery
Been let go for a while? We'll bring an overgrown lawn back under control safely.
If your lawn has gotten away from you — whether it’s been a few months or you’ve just moved into a property with an overgrown section — we can bring it back under control.
Long, thick, or tangled grass needs a different approach to a lawn that’s mowed regularly. We assess the section first and use the right equipment and cutting approach for the condition it’s in, rather than forcing a standard mow onto grass that isn’t ready for one.
What to expect
A first cut on an overgrown lawn is usually higher and rougher than a standard mow — that’s deliberate. Cutting an overgrown lawn too short in one pass can damage or kill it. We bring it down in stages where needed, so the lawn actually recovers rather than just getting scalped once and left to fend for itself.
Get in touch with a few details about the property and we’ll let you know what’s involved and what it will cost.

Questions about this service
How overgrown is too overgrown?
There's no such thing — from ankle-high to waist-high grass and beyond, we assess the section and use the right equipment for the condition it's in.
Will it take more than one visit?
Sometimes. A severely overgrown section is occasionally brought back over two visits a few days apart, so the lawn isn't shocked by too much being cut at once. We'll let you know upfront if that's the case.
