Trent has completed a great job to the tall hedging that probably hasn't been cut back for at least ten years. Council required a hard trim to the front removing at least 12 inches as was overgrowing the footpath and we were in breach of regulations. This was not an easy job and Trent was diligent, complied with my specific instructions, and completed the job as requested. Trent comes highly recommended, 100% completion rate for all tasks. Thank you Trent for your hard work!

Top Gardening related questions

You can expect to pay between $50-$125 when you hire a gardener through Airtasker. More complex gardening and landscaping services might cost more. Note that the cost will depend on what tasks you need to be done, your location, the size of your property, and how long the gardening will likely take. To better understand gardening prices, read our guide on gardening service costs and set the right pricing when booking a Tasker. 

Hiring a professional gardener will give you the best result for your gardens while saving you time. For garden services, professionals use smart gardening tools and equipment combined with years of experience to take the best care of your plants and gardens.

Gardeners don’t need specific qualifications, but they may have completed studies in horticulture or landscaping. However, your gardener will need good knowledge, experience working with plants, and a reasonable physical fitness level, as some major garden services require extensive effort and time.

Most gardeners will bring their own equipment, including a lawn mower, whipper snippers, leaf blowers, and safety gear. But some gardeners prefer to use the equipment provided at your home. It’s best to check with your gardener to see their approach, and if they have the right equipment, so you’re both prepared.

Weekly gardening maintenance and garden care on a regular-sized suburban block may take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours. But if you need a major gardening service or have a larger block, you can expect the work to take longer.

Gardeners are experts in caring for gardens, including plants, lawns, weeding, pest control, and yard work. They help with gardening work, from planting flowers and pruning trees to trimming overgrown grass, mulching, and maintaining outdoor areas. Some can be flexible and may help in gutter cleaning and landscape design outside of the usual gardening tasks.

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 service, you'll have no problem keeping your garden clean. 

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.

Garden edging and patch up of turf

$500

Box Hill NSW, Australia

22nd Apr 2024

Reposting due to offers made with no reviews. Please provide the materials, 20x pavers, concrete etc. I’ve got a very small section less than 1/2m2 needing 80/20 and Sir Grange Zoysia turf. We may avoid needing to buy a strip of turf when the garden edging is done as turf can be cut out and reused. Otherwise worst case is one strip of sir grange zoysia needed only. Sand in edges for plugged turf and level it off with a rake will need a bit of 80/20 under it. Concrete in 2 x 1.4m long paver garden bed edges, travertine small pavers like pictured. I want them not to move so either a concrete footing or something so they don’t work there way loose. A normal sand cement mix like I have in other areas works itself loose with all the watering etc The plant is brand new and will just need to be shifted over approx half a metre and be in the centre of the new edged bed. I have pristine grass and landscaping and want to keep it that way so looking for someone that knows what they’re doing. It’s an easy job but want professional work Budget includes materials, Allowing 20 travertine pavers ($60), concrete and turf. Please check pics to see the edging and grass section to be fixed
