What do garden planting services include?

A tidy, well-tended, and beautiful garden can uplift the atmosphere of your home. If your yard is a mess and you don’t know where to start, you can book a skilled and experienced gardener to get the job done. While the range of skills and services vary from Tasker to Tasker, here’s what you can expect when you book a standard garden planting service on Airtasker:

 

Basic gardening tasks

Your Tasker can get on top of your garden’s health and appearance. From watering and feeding your plants to trimming large shrubs and trees, you can hire a gardener to keep your greenery in tiptop shape. They can also help remove weeds and trim hedges in your garden. 

 

Shrub and tree planting

Planting shrubs and trees can be challenging! Planting services near you can help you select prime and healthy specimens for your yard. Moreover, the gardener can plant them using proper and professional techniques. This way, you can avoid damaging your other plants, pipes, and underground wiring that may get in the way. 

 

Installation services

Are you looking to revamp your garden? Garden planting services near you may also install key decorative fixtures in your yard. Whether it’s a bird bath bench or a sculpture, you can have your Tasker safely install any fixture to enhance the look of your garden. Do note that if you intend to install a fountain, well, or anything that requires plumbing, your Tasker may have to work with an experienced plumber.

 

Yard waste removal and cleanup

If you’ve just weathered through a storm or moved into a new home, your garden might need a major cleanup. The task can be pretty overwhelming, but not to a Tasker! They can help remove branches, old fencing, broken glass, corrugated iron, or any other junk.

 

Simple landscaping

A garden planting service can help you achieve the garden of your dreams. This service can include designing and installing walkways, planting, mulching, weeding, and pruning plants for them to reach optimal health. Your Tasker can also help you select flowers and plants that will thrive in your climate and still add vibrancy to your home! What’s more, a plant repotting service near you can help transfer your plants to larger, more beautiful pots.

Bought an old house with an established but run-down and overgrown back garden. 1) Lots of large retaining wall sleepers (timber) to be chopped up into firewood. (I can assist but won’t use the chainsaw.) same go two outdoor seating table/bench setups that need to be dismantled then chopped up. 2) Plants to be removed with excavator, put into burn pile, and ground smoothed out as much as possible. Excavator needs to be small/narrow to fit through side gate 😅 3) Two bathtubs to be removed from garden and put out for hard rubbish. Keen to see how much we can get done in a day. I can have friends help but need someone handy with a chainsaw who also owns and can transport a narrow excavator. Or if you would hire one, allow for it in your quote please.

Remove overgrown plants and clean leaves from gutter

$50

Chadstone VIC 3148, Australia

20th Dec 2025

My gutter has overgrown plants growing out of it (as seen in the photo). Help me remove the plants and check if the gutter requires more cleaning. I am unsure if it requires more cleaning, happy to pay more if upon inspection, it is found that a full clean is required. There is a tree right above my roof gutter, so there may be leaves fallen into it (as seen in the other photo)

My gutter was professionally cleaned and now running smoothly! There was a plant growing inside and heaps of leaves, but they were all cleaned in a quick and professional manner! Highly recommend!!
