Small section clearing for gardens and hard-to-reach areas
Not every project needs large-scale land clearing. Sometimes, you just need a small section of your property cleared—perhaps for a new shed, a vegetable patch, or a seating area. Armstrong Landscape Contractors offers small section clearing tailored to your needs, no matter how tight the space. We can:
- remove overgrown shrubbery, weeds and old fences
- clear away rubbish and rotting wood
- tidy up awkward corners or narrow access points
Our machinery is compact and versatile, allowing us to work efficiently even where space is limited. This means less disruption to the rest of your garden and a quicker turnaround, so you can get started on your next project without delay.
Old stumps and roots can cause a range of problems, from regrowth and pest infestations to uneven surfaces and damage to new structures. Removing them properly ensures your site is safe, stable, and truly ready for planting or construction.
Drainage is a key focus in all our work. We assess the slope, soil type, and intended use of your site before levelling and grading. If required, we also carry out trenching and simple drainage solutions to prevent water pooling or soil erosion in future.
Yes. We can import and spread high-quality topsoil to replace poor or compacted soil. This gives your lawn, plants, or garden beds the best possible start and helps prevent sinking or patchy growth.
We remove and dispose of green waste, stumps, and debris in line with local regulations. Where possible, we recycle or repurpose materials such as soil and clean green waste to reduce landfill and keep costs manageable.
