Gardens in Dudley

Dudley sits high, on the limestone ridge that Dudley Castle stands on, and a lot of the borough is built over old workings. That shows up in gardens as thin, stony topsoil over made ground, which is why lawns here often struggle in a dry summer while the weeds carry on regardless.

The housing is mixed: Victorian terraces near the centre with small, walled yards, and postwar estates further out with more regular plots and long hedged boundaries between neighbours.

What we see most in Dudley

  • Long boundary hedges

    Conifer and privet runs between properties on the postwar estates, often needing a proper height reduction rather than another light trim.

  • Thin soil over made ground

    Common across the borough. Lawns dry out fast in summer, so cutting height and how often the grass is cut matter more here than in most places.

  • Small walled yards

    Around the older terraces, where the work is mostly hard surfaces, pots and keeping the space usable rather than mowing.

What we cover here

  • Hedge trimming and height reduction, including neglected boundaries taken back over more than one visit.
  • Regular cutting at a height that suits the season, which is what these lawns respond to best.
  • Clearing and re-edging borders that have been overtaken by couch grass and bindweed.
  • Jet washing yards, paths and steps around the older terraced properties.

Worth knowing locally

Much of Dudley is underlain by former limestone and coal workings, and the ground is often made rather than natural. If your lawn goes brown before anyone else’s in July, that is usually why, rather than anything you have done wrong. Raising the cut height helps it hold on longer.

Usually thin soil over made ground, which is common across Dudley. Cutting a little higher helps the grass hold moisture, and it is worth knowing the ground is the cause before spending money on the lawn.
