James was great! There was a some back and forth initially before being able to get in touch to book the job but once we did it was scheduled within a week and James also came back the next day when it was drier to spray the weeds as promised, and he didn't charge for a longer time because the lawns were wet or reschedule.

What can you expect from gardening services?

Garden services range from basic gardening needs and maintenance to full landscape gardening help. Here are some of the most common gardening services near you and what you can expect from each when you hire a gardener:

Garden maintenance & lawn care

Regular garden maintenance is important to keep your property neat, under control, and looking its best. Whether you need a one-off tidy-up, garden maintenance while you’re away on holiday, or regular upkeep of your backyard, a gardener can help.

Lawn mowing will start by clearing the area with a general garden tidy-up and some gutter cleaning. Then your gardener will mow all grass areas, including your front and back lawn and footpath. Then, they’ll use the brushcutter to whipper snip any edges. Gardeners can also prune your trees, trim your hedges, and rake up leaves and debris. With professional garden cleaning, you'll have no problem keeping your neat and pleasing to the eyes. 

Weeding & pest control

Gardens can struggle to flourish thanks to problems like weeds and pests that eat or crowd out your plants and lawn. Your local gardeners can help by weeding your lawn by hand or spraying herbicides that kill the weeds without affecting the type of grass you’re growing.

Your gardener will also work to prevent weeds in the future by mulching around plants over a layer of newspaper or cardboard so weeds can’t go through. Your gardener will treat unwanted pests using pesticides, tailoring the treatment to keep your home and garden free from spiders, caterpillars, cockroaches, and ants.

Garden planting

Need to fill out your garden bed or plant up a new section in your garden? Your gardener can help choose the right plants that will grow well in your garden. They’ll consider factors like optimum plant positioning, sunlight levels, moisture levels and rainfall, the right fertilisers, seasons, native vs. introduced species, maintenance needs, and more. They’ll choose plants for your garden that suit your landscape design but match the care and maintenance you (or your gardener) can provide.

Lawn restoration

If your lawn’s been overrun by weeds or it’s looking a bit dead or bare in patches, your gardener can help with lawn restoration, too. They can level out any holes, aerate to encourage healthy growth, add nutrients, spread the correct seed variety, and adjust the pH of your soil.

They’ll choose the right variety of lawns to lay turf or seed your lawn. Finally, they’ll water it all in, ensuring you know proper lawn care measures between visits, or set up irrigation for daily automatic watering.

St Marys SA, Australia

23rd Feb 2025

We need some help getting our front yard back to its former glory with some small jobs. 1. Removing grass from garden beds/under Lilly-pillys. 2. Digging out as much soil as possible below our Lilly Pillys and replacing with higher quality soil. (Without doing too much damage to roots) 3. Moving 1 irrigation pipe for point 4. 4. Installing garden edging and some weed mats along the grass line to prevent grass growing into garden beds. 5. Digging out 2/3 inches of soil along fence line that’s sitting against the fence. Obscured by Lilly-pillys so a bit fiddly job. 6. General cleanup. Mowing, edging, weeding, adding/levelling mulch. The garden area is very small approx 5x6, about 1/3 of that is grass. Will either obtain products needed or reimburse as preferred. Garden bed edging is rubber or if you have the skillset mild steel 5mm. We just need a bit of help making this a nicer area! Will also consider any additional cost effective suggestions to improve the area. Please provide quotes!
