About Hampshire Lawncraft
Hampshire Lawncraft is an independent, local, lawn care specialist offering straightforward, honest advice and treatment to get the best out of your lawn.
Ben Westen
Hampshire Lawncraft's founder, Ben Westen applies his scientific outlook on life to his lawn care services. After a successful career in medical physics, his natural curiosity and love of the outdoors drew him away from the computer screen to the world of lawn care - and he hasn't looked back since!
The first principal of any scientist is to look at the root cause of a problem, start with the why - and then find a solution. It is this approach Ben uses with every customer -investigating the reason behind a specific problem they may be having; not just treating the symptoms.
He understands and can clearly explain the condition of the lawn and the long-term solutions he can provide, in a plan tailored to the lawns' needs. His ultimate satisfaction is overcoming challenges and seeing happy customers delighted by the transformation in their garden.
Local, expert lawn care
Hampshire is our home and we've worked in many gardens all over the county to improve the quality of our customers' lawns. We have great knowledge of the local area and the challenges and benefits of the natural environment. Having said that, every lawn is still completely individual and needs to be treated as such -there is is no 'one size fits all'!
Perhaps you have a high footfall and the ground gets regularly compacted, you have pets or children that like to use the lawn, or you just like to sit outside and admire the view. Every household has differing needs and uses, and these need to be taken into account when assessing how to make improvements.

We come and talk to you, understand your lifestyle and tailor your lawn treatment programme accordingly.
