Frequently Asked Questions

How much does lawn mowing cost in NZ?

Lawn mowing in NZ typically costs $45–$90 per hour or $50–$150 per visit for a standard section. Regular maintenance contracts are often discounted.

What is included in a garden maintenance visit?

A standard maintenance visit usually includes lawn mowing, edging, weeding, blowing paths, and tidying garden beds. Larger tasks like hedge trimming or tree work are additional.

Do I need council consent for a retaining wall?

In NZ, retaining walls under 1.5m high generally don't require consent, but this depends on proximity to boundaries and surcharges. A qualified landscaper can advise on compliance.

When is the best time to plant in New Zealand?

Spring (September–November) is ideal for most planting as soil temperatures rise. Autumn (March–May) is great for establishing lawns and deciduous trees before winter.
