How Hourly Pricing Workings

Garden jobs are priced hourly because no two gardens are the same. A quick site visit allows us to understand the scope of work and estimate how long the job is likely to take.

Pricing takes into account:

  • Size of the garden and layout

  • Growth level and condition

  • Type of work required

  • Time needed to complete the job properly

Once assessed:

  • We review the scope of work on site.

  • A quote is prepared based on the estimated time required

  • Pricing is confirmed when you accept the quote via the link in the quote email.

  • You’ll then be taken to a booking page where you can choose a day and time that suits you.

Example Garden Work

Outdoor patio with a black pergola, wicker furniture, potted plants, a wooden fence, and a well-maintained garden.

Small garden (light maintenance)

A small garden requiring light weeding, trimming or a tidy up with minimal green waste removal. These jobs are usually straight forward and completed in a shorter timeframe.

From $30 (time and size dependent)

Medium garden (regular maintenance)

A medium sized garden that requires more weeding, pruning, hedge trimming or general tidying including green waste removal. These jobs take longer than a small garden but don’t require the level of work involved in a full overgrown clean up.

From $50 (time and size dependent)

Large garden (heavy maintenance)

A larger or heavily overgrown garden that requires significant weeding, trimming, pruning, general clean up and green waste removal. These jobs taken longer due to the amount of work involved and the condition of the garden.

From $70 (time & size dependent)

Every garden is different, which is why we assess the job first and prepare a quote based on the actual time required to complete the work.
