How it works
Step 1
A couple of photographs is usually enough to price a London garden accurately.
Step 2
Hallway sheeted where the only way out is through the house — the norm in a terrace.
Step 3
Cut back to the agreed line, bagged as we go so nothing is left piled on the patio.
Step 4
Green waste for composting, timber and hard landscaping separated for the right facility.
Step 5
Paths and hallway swept, transfer note handed over, before-and-after photos on request.
Why choose us
Usually bookable within 48 hours outside of March to June, when garden work books out a week ahead. Pontoon Dock (DLR) is the nearest station, so a E16 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, where 23% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in E16, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the North Woolwich and Silvertown stock goes, a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Registered waste carrier; green waste goes to a composting facility and every load leaves with a transfer note in your name.
Two crew and a Luton or tipper; three where everything has to be carried through a hallway. Single access road along the river, construction diversions and gated new blocks.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small courtyard or balcony tidy | £120 | 1–2 hrs | A quarter-load of green waste, hand-carried through the house because most London terraces have no side return. |
| Half-load green waste | £210 | 2–3 hrs | Prunings, turf and pots, taken to a composting site rather than a general transfer station. |
| Full Luton load | £390 | 3–5 hrs | An overgrown rear garden cut back and cleared, including the bags that have been by the back door since spring. |
| Shed or greenhouse dismantle and remove | £180 | 2 hrs | Dismantled panel by panel; glass is wrapped and separated because it cannot go in with green waste. |
| Decking, fencing or hard landscaping removal | £320 | 4 hrs+ | Treated timber and concrete are charged at a different rate than green waste, so it is priced separately. |

Scope
This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again. I had furniture assembly and clearance work to be done, and again it was done very professionally to a very high standard, and with absolute politeness at all times.

Working in North Woolwich and Silvertown
North Woolwich and Silvertown E16 is recent new-build and renter-heavy: 74% of homes here are flats and 26% are houses, across 2,668 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 38% of North Woolwich and Silvertown is privately rented and 39% socially rented, a lot of E16 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
North Woolwich and Silvertown substrates run to often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, where 23% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the North Woolwich and Silvertown stock goes, a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the mistake that costs a E16 customer twice.
North Woolwich and Silvertown is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — riverside strip of former sugar and rubber works, now under heavy redevelopment — which is why a E16 quote is not a Newham average.
Single access road along the river, construction diversions and gated new blocks. Nearest station is Pontoon Dock (DLR), and two crew and a Luton or tipper; three where everything has to be carried through a hallway.
