About
Hi, I'm Jo — The Torquay Gardener
I started Torquay Gardener because I think finding a reliable, trustworthy gardener shouldn't be so hard.
I'm one of the few female gardeners working in the Torbay area, and I think that matters. I listen properly to what you want from your garden, I'm upfront about time and cost, and I take real pride in the results. Gardening is skilled, physical work — and I love it.
When you book with me, you deal with me directly — I manage every job personally and make sure the work is always done to my standard. During school holidays I bring in trusted, vetted help to keep up with demand, but I'm always your point of contact.
Why Torquay Gardener?
There's no shortage of gardeners in Torbay — but finding one who turns up when they say they will, does the job properly, and is honest about what it'll cost? That's harder than it should be.
That's exactly what I set out to offer. A personal, professional service where you always know who you're dealing with and what you're paying. No vague quotes, no surprises on the invoice.
Who I Work With
During busy periods such as school holidays I work with a small number of trusted, vetted contractors to make sure I can always deliver — without ever compromising on quality or reliability.
If you're not sure whether I cover your area, just ask.
A Note on Pricing
I charge £25 per hour for maintenance and general garden work, and I'll always be upfront about how long a job is likely to take before I start. For larger projects like garden design or landscaping, I'll give you a free written quote so you know exactly where you stand.
I know most gardeners don't publish their prices. I do — because I think you deserve to know what you're getting into before you pick up the phone.
