Gardening Services in Loures
Loures runs from apartment blocks in Sacavém and Moscavide out to open country around Bucelas and Fanhões, and the gardening changes completely along the way. Up in the north of the concelho the properties are quintas and houses with real land: an orchard corner, a few old olives, a vine over the terrace, a lawn that someone laid optimistically, and a boundary where the garden fades into rough ground. Nearer Loures centro and Santo António dos Cavaleiros the plots are smaller and the work is closer to conventional upkeep. We handle mowing and lawn care, pruning trees and shrubs, watering systems, planting and transplanting, and seasonal tidying, on a calendar agreed after a visit.

About our service in Loures
On a property with land, the useful first step is drawing a line between the garden and everything beyond it. The kept garden is lawn, beds, hedges, orchard and the ground you actually walk on, and it wants regular attention through the year. Rough ground beyond the fence is another job with another purpose, and we keep the two separate in the quote so nobody pays garden rates for scrub or expects a lawn finish on a hillside. Within the garden the calendar does the heavy lifting: grass moves fast in spring, slows almost to a halt in the driest weeks, then picks up again after the first serious autumn rain, so visits bunch up and spread out accordingly. Fruit trees and olives repay proper timing more than any other planting here. Winter is the moment for structural pruning on most of them, opening the centre so light and air reach the fruit rather than shortening every branch by the same amount, and clearing suckers and crossing wood before it rubs. Vines over a terrace need their own regime and a summer tidy to stop the whole thing turning into a roof. Where a garden has been fed by a well or a tank we check what actually reaches the plants, and where it runs off the mains we allow for hard water, which marks foliage and slowly blocks drip emitters. Deep, early morning watering at wider intervals beats a daily trickle, and rules on water use can vary by município, so an efficient system is worth the trouble. One caution matters especially on this kind of land. Cork oak and holm oak are legally protected species in Portugal and olives are governed by their own rules, so a tree cannot simply be felled because it is in the way, and we identify what is standing before any of that is discussed. Maintenance pruning is a normal part of our work. Cuttings, prunings and green waste are loaded and taken to a licensed disposal point. If the real task is an overgrown plot rather than a garden, that is clearance work and we treat it as a separate service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions from properties across the Loures concelho:
When should the olives and fruit trees be pruned?
Structural work belongs in the dormant season for most of them, with a lighter tidy in summer where growth is blocking light or a path. Pruning the same trees hard at the wrong time of year loses you a crop and stresses the tree.
Do you look after the rough ground beyond the garden too?
That is clearing rather than gardening, with different equipment and a different purpose, so we price it separately. Keeping the two apart also means the garden schedule is not swallowed by one heavy job.
Our water comes from a well. Does that change the irrigation?
It changes what we check. Flow and pressure at the plant matter more than what the pump claims, and filtration matters if the water carries sediment. We look at the whole run during the visit before proposing anything.
