About the area
Working in Dalbeattie
Dalbeattie is a granite-built town close to the Solway coast and the edge of Dalbeattie Forest. The combination of coastal weather and nearby woodland means gardens here often need extra attention to hedges, trees and driveways.
Around Dalbeattie we work on granite-built terraces, properties bordering Dalbeattie Forest, coastal cottages nearby, on one-off jobs and regular visits alike. We're based in Dumfries, so Dalbeattie and the villages around it are a normal run for us rather than a trip out of the way.

What we tend to see in Dalbeattie
Being this close to the coast, gardens around Dalbeattie deal with a fair bit of salt and wind, so we pay extra attention to planting and clean-up after a rough spell of weather. With woodland nearby, we're used to dealing with leaf litter and overhanging branches as part of the job.
Sea winds around Dalbeattie do affect how the grass grows, so we adjust the cutting height and how often we come out.
Salt air and wind off the coast near Palnackie can leave hedges looking rough, so we keep an eye out for storm damage as well as the regular trim.
Gardens near Colvend grow back fast in the mild, damp coastal air, so a neglected one can need more work than it looks.
