How does your garden grow?

You’d be forgiven for thinking garden maintenance should be easy; after all, plants are a thriving force of mother nature, but harnessing their organic beauty for cosmetic purposes is a great challenge. 

Site surveillance, climate observation and plant research are all necessary preparations and take many hours before you can even begin to understand what you’re faced with. Save yourself the time and inevitable confusion and farm out your garden maintenance to professionals.

There’s no better way to transform your drab patch of land into an oasis than with the help of a landscape gardener.

If your “garden maintenance” is currently limited to taking the bins in and out on garbage night, you will need the expertise of a landscaper to whip your garden into shape. A qualified and experienced landscape gardener will usually charge around $5000 and deliver you a complete overhaul, including a new garden design and its construction.

With the makeover complete, you will want to keep it in great shape with regular garden maintenance. Gardeners are available through Service Seeking for as little as $15 an hour and need only a few hours on-site every six weeks to uphold your new high standards for your garden.

Looking good

After your initial output for landscaping, regular garden maintenance will cost a few hundred dollars a year. It’s a small price to pay to dramatically lift the appearance and value of your home. Imagine all the things you will be able to do once your garden is an enjoyable place to be – entertain and have barbeques, play outside with your kids, relax by the pool – and all without getting your hands dirty.

You don’t need to have a green thumb or slave away in the yard to have a glorious garden. Garden maintenance is within your reach.
