Garden care for managed properties — Landscape gardener
Supply a plan of the communal areas and identify who approves tasks and changes to planting. Explain resident use, access and reporting needs so the gardener can distinguish routine shared-space care from private requests or projects requiring a new instruction.
Service scope
Care of communal gardens or landscaped areas under an authorised managed-property schedule, with defined resident interfaces, tasks and reporting. The service is not an automatic right to alter private gardens or remove established planting without the appropriate instruction.
What is normally included
- Agreed communal garden-maintenance programme
- Resident-sensitive access coordination
- Completion and follow-up records for management
What is not included
- Assumed maintenance of every private garden
- Major tree work or redesign without separate approval
Typical tasks
- Review communal areas and care priorities
- Confirm approval and resident interfaces
- Agree task and visit schedules
- Complete the authorised maintenance
- Record work and proposed additional actions
What to include in your brief
- Communal-area plan
- Management and approval contacts
- Required tasks and frequency
- Resident access and use constraints
- Waste and reporting arrangements
Choosing the right professional
Compare the task schedule and reporting method, not just the visit frequency. Ask how resident requests, plant removal and extra works are approved, and keep specialist tree operations or redesign distinct from routine garden care.
Important considerations
- Unclear communal boundaries can lead to unauthorised work
- Conflicting resident preferences can disrupt an agreed maintenance plan
