One of the most common questions we get from homeowners in Bundoora, Greenvale, Roxburgh Park, Somerton, and Meadow Heights searching "garden maintenance services near me" is simple: how often do I actually need this done?
A Season-by-Season Guide to Garden Maintenance
Spring — Melbourne's biggest growth period. Lawns, hedges, and weeds all take off. Fortnightly garden maintenance is ideal to stay ahead of it.
Summer — Grass growth slows in dry spells but weeds and dead growth still need managing. Monthly lawn and garden maintenance is usually enough, with extra visits after rain.
Autumn — Leaf drop season, especially in leafier pockets. A combined garden maintenance and green waste removal visit keeps things tidy before winter.
Winter — Growth slows right down. Most properties are fine with a monthly or even six-weekly garden maintenance check-in.
