Garden Tidy-Ups Wicklow — Your Garden Sorted.
Why Choose Us For Tidying Your Garden?
Every garden reaches a point where it needs more than maintenance. A season of neglect during a busy period. A property that's been vacant for months. A garden that was never quite managed properly and has gradually got further and further ahead of you.
An elderly parent's home where the garden has become unmanageable. A rental property that's been handed back in a state.
Whatever the reason, Metro Power Washing provides professional garden tidy-up and clearance services across County Wicklow.
John and his team clear, cut, and tidy gardens of every size and every level of neglect — leaving the property clean, presentable, and ready for whatever comes next, whether that's ongoing maintenance, a property sale, or simply being able to use the garden again.

Frequently Asked Questions — Garden Tidy-Ups
It depends entirely on the size of the garden and the extent of the work needed. A standard residential garden that needs an end-of-season clear and tidy typically takes between two and four hours. A significantly overgrown or neglected garden, or a larger property, will take a full day or more. John assesses the garden before quoting and gives a realistic time and cost estimate upfront — not a vague range that doubles by the time the job is finished.
Yes. Everything cleared during the tidy-up is removed from the property and disposed of responsibly. There are no additional charges for waste removal — it's included in the quoted price.
Yes. Significantly neglected gardens are assessed for what's achievable in a single visit and what may require a follow-up. Some situations — very heavy weed growth, substantial overgrowth, large volumes of debris — are best approached in two visits to get the best result. This is discussed honestly at the quote stage.
Yes. Many customers book an initial tidy-up and then move onto a regular grass cutting and garden maintenance schedule with Metro Power Washing from that point. If that's something you're interested in, mention it when getting a quote and it can be discussed alongside the one-off tidy.
Yes. Front garden, back garden, side passages, and any other outdoor areas on the property are all covered in the same visit where needed.
Both. Standard residential gardens across Wicklow's housing stock are the most common jobs, but larger rural gardens, farmhouse gardens, and properties with substantial grounds are also taken on. Scope and pricing are assessed individually for larger properties.

When People Book a Garden Tidy-Up
Before a property sale. First impressions at a property viewing are formed outside before a potential buyer ever walks through the front door. An overgrown garden, a moss-covered patio, and a lawn that hasn't been cut since last summer communicate neglect — and buyers factor that into their offers. A professional garden tidy-up before a property goes to market is one of the highest-return investments a Wicklow homeowner can make before a sale. John has done enough pre-sale tidy-ups across Wicklow to know that a properly presented garden can meaningfully affect how a property is perceived at first viewing.
After a property has been vacant. Rental properties handed back by tenants, inherited properties, holiday homes left unmanaged through winter, or properties that have been through a prolonged sale process — gardens in these situations deteriorate fast in Wicklow's growing climate. A full clearance and tidy brings the property back to a presentable standard and makes it ready for whatever comes next.
When a garden has simply got ahead of you. Life gets busy. A few missed cuts, a wet month where getting into the garden wasn't practical, an injury or illness — it doesn't take long for a manageable garden to become an overwhelming one. A professional tidy-up resets the situation so that keeping on top of it from that point forward is realistic again.

What a Garden Tidy-Up Includes
Weed clearance Overgrown weed growth in borders, along boundary edges, between paving joints, and throughout neglected beds. Cleared by hand and with appropriate treatment where regrowth needs to be prevented. Wicklow's damp climate means weeds establish fast and spread faster — a neglected border left through one growing season can take significant work to bring back.
Bed and border clearance Overgrown planting beds cleared of dead material, invasive growth, and accumulated debris. Borders defined and edged so the distinction between lawn, bed, and path is clear again.
Shrub and bush cutting back Overgrown shrubs that have spread beyond their intended position, are blocking paths or windows, or have simply grown out of shape over several seasons. Cut back to a manageable size and shape that allows the garden to function properly again.
Leaf clearance Accumulated leaf fall from Wicklow's abundant tree coverage — on lawns, paths, patios, in borders, and in corners where it mats down through winter. Cleared fully and removed from the property.
Patio and path clearance Patios and paths cleared of leaf matter, debris, and the moss and algae growth that accumulates rapidly in Wicklow's climate when surfaces aren't regularly maintained. Where a full power washing clean is needed on the surface, this is offered as part of the same visit.
Debris and rubbish removal Old garden furniture, broken pots, accumulated garden waste, dumped material, and general outdoor rubbish cleared from the property. Everything removed and disposed of responsibly — not fly-tipped.
Hedge trimming as part of the tidy Overgrown hedges brought back as part of a full garden tidy-up — not a separate booking required. Where hedge work is significant, it's assessed and priced as part of the overall job.
