Suggested reads about Lawn Mowing

What’s included with your lawn mowing service?

A standard lawn mowing service involves cutting the grass to between 5-10 cms (2”- 4”), normally using a petrol lawnmower. Lawn mowing contractors will usually bring their own equipment, plus bags to take the rubbish away. If you have a large garden or acreage, a ride on mower might be required, so make sure you specify the size of the area in your post.

But it doesn’t have to end there. Many lawn mowing service providers offer other inclusions along with the mowing, like...

Edging and whipper snipping

Lawn mowing professionals will have a whipper snipper (and other tools) to give your lawn sharp edges and stop your grass from growing onto the footpath or curbs. They’ll also clean around garden beds, trees, and features for a clean, professional finish.

Rubbish removal

Your gardener may use a leaf blower or broom to remove cut grass from the pathways and edges to leave a clear surface. They’ll also take away any lawn clippings, twigs, and any debris that was on the grass before cutting. If you prefer, you can ask that they leave the grass clippings for you to use as mulch or compost.

Lawn mowing does not usually include removing hard rubbish and waste from your grass. If you want your gardener to clear the area before cutting, make sure you specify this so they can include it in their quote.

Fertilising

Keeping your lawns lush and green requires regular feeding and should be part of your garden maintenance. Knowing which fertilisers to apply and when can make the difference between golf-club enviable green and corn flakes crunchy lawns. Strong, healthy lawns need less watering and are more weed resistant.

Weed killing

Keeping weeds out of your lawns will make them a more welcoming place to play, rest, and relax without worrying about prickles and spikes. Regular trimming, manual weed removal, and organic or chemical weed kill will keep your lawns looking a lot healthier, too. You might also add on weeding for your garden beds so your whole garden can look tidy.

Leaf blowing

Leaves on your grass and driveway not only look messy but can create a hazard if they get wet and slippery. Your gardener can provide leaf blowing services and a garden tidy up, including removing the dry leaves.

Aerating

Soil can get compacted over time, so regular aerating is a good idea if you want to keep it healthy. To aerating your lawn, your gardener will use a machine to make small holes in the ground at regular intervals. This allows for better drainage and allows air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots of the grass.

Seeding

If your lawn has bare patches or is still getting established, you can add garden seeding to your lawn mowing service. Professional gardeners have the tools, equipment, and know-how to freshly seed your lawn and get it growing in no time.

Looking for someone to mow the lawn, remove weeds and give the garden a general tidy up. Photos of the areas are attached. What's involved: - Mow the lawn (one section has gotten quite long and overgrown, see photos) - Whipper snipper and edge along paths, paving and garden borders - Remove weeds throughout the mulched garden beds, including along the side path, driveway strip and front bed - Tidy up loose leaves, twigs and general debris across the mulched areas Please note: - A green waste bin will be provided for clippings and weeds - You will need to supply all your own tools and equipment (mower, whipper snipper, gloves, etc.) Importantly, I'm also looking for someone to take on ongoing regular garden maintenance after this initial visit, so if you do a good job there's regular work on offer. Happy to discuss frequency and a per visit rate. Please send through a quote for the initial tidy up and let me know your availability, plus your rate for ongoing maintenance. Keen to find someone reliable I can keep using. Type of gardening: Lawn mowing, Weeding, Garden cleanup Size of garden: Under 50m² Has green waste bin: Yes

Arman or Mike came promptly to my house to do garden work. But left it in a mess as shown in photos. Asked for extra direct payment via pay id to trim hedges but left without cleaning and called me 20 times to get his extra cash before I could check his work as I came home late from work.
