Hi folks.

First time in here and hoping to avail of your expert knowledge.

Due to an extension being built last year, a dog that like to dig, a kids pool (before the hosepipe ban) and years of neglect, our garden has fallen into severe disrepair.

The grass is patchy at best & absent/weed infested at best.

I’ve attached some photos so you can see what we’re dealing with.

I’d like to attempt to get it sorted rather than give up & pave over it, but I’m not adverse to that either.

We also have ivy round the walls which is great for security & privacy as it grows about two foot above the walls, but that’s infested with bindweed from a neighbours.

The soil is really good as our garden used to be a fruit orchard and has a lot of nutrients and I believe it could be great, but the nuclear option of paving over appeals as I wouldn’t have to deal with it any more.

Opinions?
