Paths & driveways
Identify grass growing over hard surfaces and the finish you want along each edge. Point out cracks, uneven surfaces or objects close to the work.
Neater edges. A clearer finish.
Make the edges part of the plan. Describe the paths, beds and fence lines you want tidied, then agree on the work and clean-up.

Define the tidy-up
Be specific about every edge.
A tidy-up can cover different tasks. Separate the edges you want trimmed from other garden work, and ask the provider to confirm what they will include.
Beds & fence lines
Show where lawn meets garden beds, walls or fences. Flag plants and features that should be protected, and discuss areas equipment may not reach.
Loose growth & clean-up
List any loose grass or small debris you want cleared. Ask how cut material will be collected and whether taking it away is part of the quote.
Prepare a useful request
What should an edging request include?
A clear description helps a provider assess the work. The quote depends on the edges, current condition, access and tasks you agree.
Plan your quoteWhich edges need work
List the paths, driveway, garden beds and fence lines separately. Approximate lengths or photos can help explain the scope.
Growth & obstacles
Describe grass over hard surfaces, dense growth and obstacles. Identify fragile plants, irrigation fittings or cables near the edge.
Access & space
Explain narrow side paths, locked gates and steps. Mention whether objects need moving before work can begin.
The full tidy-up
Say whether you also want mowing, clipping collection or removal of cut material. Ask for each extra task to be listed rather than assuming it is included.
Before the visit
Show the edges before work starts.
Once you arrange work directly with a provider, agree on access and anything they need you to prepare.
Mark the boundaries
Walk through the areas you want tidied and any areas that should be left alone.
Identify hidden features
Point out irrigation, cables, drainage and young plants close to the grass.
Move loose objects
Clear toys and other small items where practical. Arrange for pets to be kept away from the work area.
Agree on cut material
Confirm whether material will stay on site, go into an agreed bin or be taken away. Ask about any separate disposal charge.

FAQ
Edging & tidy-ups questions, answered.
Can I request an edging quote here?
Not yet. The quote panel is a preview: nothing is sent or saved. Use this guide to prepare questions for a provider you contact directly.
Is edging included in a lawn mowing quote?
That depends on the provider and the work you agree. Ask which edges are included, how they will be finished and whether clean-up is part of the quote.
Does a tidy-up include hedge trimming or weed treatment?
Do not assume other garden tasks are included. Describe each task separately and ask the provider what they can assess and quote for.
What happens to the cut grass and debris?
Agree on collection and disposal before work begins. Confirm whether material stays on site or is taken away, and ask whether removal has a separate charge.
