Professional Grass Cutting Service | Oxfordshire & The Cotswolds

Home » Garden Services » Grass Cutting & Lawn Care

Keep your lawn neat, healthy, and thriving with professional mowing services tailored to your garden. Our experienced team serves residential garden clients and companies Oxfordshire, adjusting cutting height and frequency throughout the season for strong root growth and lush appearance. We work with your garden’s natural rhythm – more frequent cuts during peak growing months, careful management during dry spells, and expert preparation for autumn and winter. Weekly, fortnightly, or monthly schedules available to suit your needs.

Wildflower meadows and conservation grasslands require specialist timing and technique. Our team understands when to cut for maximum biodiversity – typically once or twice per year after flowering and seed-setting. For the full ecological case, read our guide on what your garden can do for nature. We use appropriate equipment to avoid damaging sensitive habitats, remove cuttings to encourage wildflower growth, and can advise on management strategies for your specific meadow type. Perfect for estates and properties across the Cotswolds looking to support local wildlife while maintaining beautiful, well-managed grounds.

The last cut of the year matters most

Leaving a meadow uncut until late October or November isn’t neglect – it’s the most important management decision of the season. By waiting until seed has set and fallen, and until the hollow stems of knapweed, scabious, and grasses have served as overwintering chambers for solitary bees and hoverflies, a single well-timed cut does more for the following year’s wildflower display than any amount of intervention in spring. The arisings are always removed rather than left in place – meadow plants are plants of low fertility, and a mulching cut that feeds the soil is quietly working against everything you’re trying to achieve.

Over time, lawns develop thatch – a layer of dead grass, moss, and organic matter that prevents water, nutrients, and air from reaching grass roots. Our scarifying service removes this buildup, allowing your lawn to breathe and promoting vigorous new growth. We typically scarify in spring or autumn when grass is actively growing, working across Banbury, Chipping Norton, Bicester, and throughout Oxfordshire. Often combined with overseeding and feeding, scarifying transforms tired, moss-filled lawns into thick, healthy turf. Essential for maintaining quality lawns in the Cotswolds climate.
