Garden maintenance

$55/hr

Our garden maintenance team is guided by the best practises in horticulture including plant and tree care as well as season appropriate soil care and fertiliser application. Busy Bees also offers options for pest care and weed management that consider families, pets and the environment.

Busy Bees also performs all aspects of lawn care such as coring, aerating, de-thatching, fertilising, topdressing and over-seeding.

We mow, trim, snip, prune, tidy and all with the best, well kept tools and machinery. And, we ALWAYS tidy up after ourselves.

Residential or commercial maintenance schedules can be set up flexibly to suit you and your garden.

From small instant lawn installs or replanting, to larger hard and soft landscaping projects; our team has the experience and the knowledge to help you realise your vision.

We use premium plant suppliers from here in Adelaide to ensure plants are acclimatised to SA conditions. We use quality products such as ‘StraightCurve’ for garden edging and ‘Hunter’ and ‘Rainbird’ for irrigation control.

We have many years experience using excavation equipment and mini loaders and utilise safe work methods and hazard reduction on all sites, for all works.

One of our experienced team suited to your job requirements will attend the site of your home or business to assess, recommend and quote. A written quote is guaranteed within 5 business days of site visit.*

We now also offer pressure washing as a stand alone service.* We have various equipment to suit jobs such as pavers, patios, garages, concrete, outdoor wet areas amongst others. Pressure washing can be a quick and effective way to have an area looking bright and new again without having to re-new.
