Why us

Specialist garden care
A gardening business that only does gardening
We prune, hedge, weed, mulch, feed, mow and clean up, and that is what our crews do every working day. Horticulture is a craft that rewards repetition, so keeping the whole business focused on garden care is what keeps the standard high – and means your visit never gets deprioritised because a build ran late somewhere else.
We work across four regions – the Northern Beaches, North Shore, Eastern Suburbs and Inner West – with the Northern Beaches as our primary service area, where crews operate every working day.

Three steps to a garden that holds its shape
No lock-in contracts for residential clients, no vague scopes, and no surprise variations on an invoice.
Site walk and scope
We walk the property, record species, soil, aspect, exposure and access, then set a visit frequency and a task rotation that suits the garden rather than a generic checklist.
Fixed per-visit price
You get a fixed price for an agreed scope, plus a separate quote for any restoration work if the garden needs a reset before it joins a normal cycle.
Same crew, same schedule
Your property sits on a fixed route with the same crew, so they learn the garden. You get a short note after each visit on what was done and what to watch.

Practical guides for Sydney gardens
Written by the crews doing the work – mowing heights, coastal plant selection, hedge timing and strata scopes.
Lawn care
The right mowing height for Sydney lawns (and why low cutting kills turf)
Kikuyu, buffalo and couch each want a different cutting height – and most Sydney lawns are mown at least 20mm too short.

Garden maintenance and lawn mowing FAQs
The questions we get asked most often about scheduling, pricing, scope and how we work.
What areas of Sydney do you service?+
Our primary service area is the Northern Beaches, from Manly and Fairlight through to Palm Beach and Whale Beach, including inland suburbs such as Frenchs Forest, Belrose, Davidson, Terrey Hills and Oxford Falls. We also service the Lower and Upper North Shore, the Eastern Suburbs and the Inner West. Because we run established routes in each region, new clients can usually be added to an existing run, which keeps travel loading – and your visit price – down.
What kind of work do your crews take on?+
Ongoing garden maintenance and lawn care: hedging, pruning, weeding, mulching, fertilising, pest and soil management, mowing, edging, ride-on mowing for large areas, and full green waste removal. We also handle garden restorations to bring a neglected property back to a standard we can then maintain on a regular cycle.
How much does garden maintenance cost?+
Visit pricing depends on property size, planting density, the amount of hedging, slope, access and how much green waste leaves the site. Rather than publish a figure that won't match your property, we quote a fixed per-visit price for an agreed scope after a site walk or a review of photos and your address. That price stays fixed for the agreed scope, and any additional works are quoted separately and approved before they happen.
How often should my garden be serviced?+
Most Sydney gardens suit fortnightly visits from September to April and three or four weekly from May to August. Properties with formal hedging, high-visibility entries or irrigated lawns in full sun often justify weekly attention, while low-planting native gardens can hold up well on a monthly cycle.
Do you provide one-off clean-ups?+
Yes – one-off visits suit pre-sale presentation, end of lease, post-storm recovery and gardens that have got away over a wet summer. Most clients who start with a one-off move onto a regular schedule afterwards, because holding a garden costs considerably less than repeatedly rescuing it.
Do you remove green waste?+
Yes. All green waste is taken off site and processed through licensed recycling facilities. If you'd prefer, material can be chipped and returned to your beds as mulch, which is often the better option for sandy coastal soils that need organic matter.
Are you insured, and can you provide documentation?+
Yes. We hold public liability insurance and can provide certificates of currency, safe work method statements and site-specific risk assessments for strata, commercial, education and government sites before work begins.
Do I need to be home during the visit?+
No. Most clients provide access details and we work unsupervised, then send a short note covering what was done and anything worth watching. If you'd like to be present for the first visit to walk through your preferences, we'll book a time that suits.
