Ed’s Garden Maintenance was founded by Edward Mauleverer in January 2003. Within a short time, Ed’s business was profitable and had more customers than it could handle. So Edward decided to share his business approach with others and let them share in his growing success. There are now over 35 current Operators, growing their own successful garden maintenance businesses across the UK.



Ed’s Garden Maintenance Operators deliver prompt, reliable and professional garden maintenance services to all their customers. Most of the work is for residential households and is a mixture of one-off jobs to be done as soon as possible and regularly scheduled, repeat business.
