How Does Tree Surgery Improve Your Property Value?
We’re not the only garden maintenance company in Galway — but here’s why so many homeowners and property managers come back to us year after year.
Over 25 Years of Experience in Galway & Connacht
Since we started, we’ve maintained hundreds of gardens right across Galway City, Galway County, and Co. Mayo. From compact town-house gardens in Salthill to sprawling rural properties in South Galway and North Mayo, we’ve seen every type of outdoor space. That experience means we know how to approach each garden properly — what it needs, what it doesn’t, and the most efficient way to get results.
Fully Insured for Your Peace of Mind
Every member of the JB Garden Care team operates under full public liability insurance. That means if anything goes wrong on your property during a visit — damaged fence, broken glass, anything — you’re fully covered. We’d never cut corners on this. It’s protection for you, and it reflects the professional standard we hold ourselves to.
Licensed and Qualified Team
Our team includes certified tree surgeons and qualified garden maintenance professionals. When it comes to more technical tasks — hedge shaping, shrub pruning, or anything near trees — you want people who know what they’re doing. We do.
Free, No-Obligation Quotes
Before we start any work, we visit your property, take a proper look, and give you a clear, honest quote — no vague estimates, no surprise invoices. You’ll know exactly what’s included and what it’ll cost before we lift a finger.
Available 7 Days a Week
Garden maintenance in Galway doesn’t stop at weekends, and neither do we. We’re available Monday through Sunday, including bank holidays, to fit around your life and your schedule.
Environmentally Responsible Green Waste Disposal
All the material we remove — grass clippings, hedge trimmings, weeds, leaves, branches — is collected and disposed of responsibly. We recycle and compost wherever possible and avoid unnecessary landfill waste. Galway is a beautiful part of Ireland, and we intend to keep it that way.
Local Knowledge That Makes a Difference
We know Galway’s weather. We know how fast certain hedges grow along the coast compared to inland. We know the soil types in different parts of Connacht and how they affect lawn and plant health. This local knowledge means better advice, better planning, and better results for your garden.

Seasonal Garden Maintenance in Galway — What Your Garden Needs Year-Round
One thing we’ve learned over 25 years maintaining Galway gardens is that no two seasons are the same — and Connacht’s climate throws everything at you. Here’s how we approach the year:
Spring — Wake-Up and Reset
After a wet Connacht winter, spring garden maintenance is essential. We clear winter debris, cut back dead growth, aerate lawns, edge borders, and set up your garden for the growing season. It’s also the best time to tackle overgrown hedges before birds nest and before the spring flush kicks in.
Summer — Keep on Top of Growth
Summer in Galway means rapid grass and hedge growth. Regular lawn mowing, edging, and hedge trimming keeps everything under control during peak season. We also keep beds weeded and tidy so your garden looks its best during the warmest months.
Autumn — Prepare and Protect
Autumn is the time to cut back perennials, clear fallen leaves, carry out structural hedge and shrub pruning, and prepare your lawn for the colder months ahead. Getting this right in autumn means far less work come spring.
Winter — Tidy and Maintain
Even in Galway’s winter, gardens need attention. Deciduous trees and shrubs can be pruned while dormant, lawns need occasional attention during mild spells, and a winter tidy-up keeps your property looking presentable year-round — especially important for landlords and commercial properties.
