Garden maintenance in Dorchester: Homeowners vs renters

Homeowners

You’re responsible for the upkeep of your outdoor space, whether that’s a compact lawn or a larger landscaped garden. Regular maintenance helps avoid bigger issues later and keeps your kerb appeal high.

Planning to sell? A well maintained garden can help boost your property value.

Renters

It depends on your tenancy agreement. Often, you're expected to keep things tidy — think mowing the lawn and weeding. But bigger tasks, like tree work or fence repairs, usually fall to your landlord.

Before booking, it’s worth:

• Checking your tenancy terms
• Getting permission for anything major
• Asking if your landlord already uses a service
