Question 1

What other services do you offer besides lawn mowing?

Accepted Answer

In addition to lawn mowing, our team can help with a wide range of lawn and garden services. This includes weeding, weed spraying and removal, hedge trimming, plant pruning, general garden clean ups, green waste removal, rubbish removal, and gutter cleaning.

If you have a larger property, we also offer ride-on mowing services. Whether it’s a small residential job or a larger block, we tailor our services to suit your needs.

Question 2

Do I need to be home during the service?

Accepted Answer

No, you don’t need to be home. As long as we have clear access to the areas that need mowing or garden work, you can carry on with your day as normal.

If there are any special access instructions, you’re welcome to let us know ahead of time. You can come home to a neatly maintained lawn without any disruption.

Question 3

What happens if lawns aren’t mowed regularly?

Accepted Answer

When lawns are left too long, grass health can decline. The base of the grass can brown, sunlight struggles to reach the soil, and this can reduce overall lawn nutrition. Over time, this may lead to patchy growth or dormant areas.

Long grass can also create other issues, such as increased pest activity and, during dry periods, higher fire risk. Regular mowing helps keep lawns healthy, tidy, and easier to manage.

Question 4

Can you mow when it’s raining or the lawn is wet?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, mowing in wet conditions isn’t possible. Wet grass leads to poor cutting results and can damage your lawn. It’s also not safe or practical for our team to work in heavy rain.

If rain affects your scheduled service, we’ll be in touch to arrange a suitable alternative day as soon as conditions allow.

Question 5

Do you use environmentally responsible practices?

Accepted Answer

Where possible, we use environmentally responsible methods and products. Our approach focuses on maintaining healthy lawns and gardens while minimising unnecessary impact on the surrounding environment.

Question 6

Do you offer seasonal or ongoing maintenance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer both one-off services and regular maintenance plans. Seasonal services can help prepare your garden for changing conditions, while ongoing plans keep lawns and gardens consistently tidy throughout the year.

Question 7

How often should a lawn be mowed?

Accepted Answer

A good rule of thumb is to avoid removing more than one-third of the grass height in a single mow. Cutting too much at once can stress the lawn.

During cooler months, lawns may only need mowing every four to six weeks. In warmer months, growth is faster and mowing is usually required every two to three weeks. Frequency can vary depending on grass type and conditions, and we’re happy to advise.

Question 8

What time can you visit for lawn mowing?

Accepted Answer

Council noise rules vary, but generally lawn mowing can begin from around 7am on weekdays. On weekends, start times are usually later, often between 8am and 9am.

If you have specific timing needs or an urgent request, let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
