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.

I’m just hoping to get my lawn mowed tomorrow morning front and back. I need it finished before 9:15am. I know I probably won’t have much luck but thought I would try as my lawn man cancelled. Pending weather. If it is raining, I assume we will need to cancel. I normally pay $70 but will happily negotiate.

Need lawn mowed, garden beds weeded, small pathway cleared of overgrown grass. Then hopefully ongoing maintenance mowing and occasional weeding if the job suits you. The front yard is a grassed area (approx 5m x 10m) with garden beds around the edge. The beds have neglected Agapanthus and I aim to remove but any advice on tackling that is appreciated. The backyard (approx 10m x 15m) is just grass with a short pathway from the house to the clothesline, there are no trees or garden beds in the backyard. The path is overgrown with grass which I’d like removed. I’d also like some advice on plants for the garden beds that are empty, some privacy screening options as it’s on a main road and general tips/ideas as both yards are mostly empty and depressing (I don’t expect free work so time for that will be included in the quote you provide). I’m flexible around when it is done and happy to work around your schedule especially if you do other yards in the area. The house is on Lorna st near the mater hospital. Happy to discuss in more detail please just reach out :) Type of gardening: Whipper snipping, Garden cleanup, Other, Lawn mowing, Weeding Size of garden: Under 50m² Has green waste bin: Yes
