Selling or moving out? Get the garden inspection-ready, fast.
A tidy garden is one of the cheapest, highest-impact things you can do before listing or handing back the keys. We'll sort it in a single visit — quiet, clean, no fuss.
First impressions start outside.
Whether you're selling a property, handing back the keys at the end of a lease, or preparing for a rental inspection — the garden is one of the first things people notice. A tidy, well-presented outdoor area makes the whole property feel more cared for. It directly affects buyer perception at open inspections, and it's often the difference between a tenant getting their bond back or losing a chunk of it.
We do a lot of this work in Canberra, and we know exactly what's needed. A typical pre-sale or end-of-lease garden blitz covers everything: mowing and edging all lawn areas, weeding garden beds, trimming hedges, pruning overgrown shrubs, clearing leaves and debris, mulching garden beds to give them a fresh look, and pressure cleaning paths and driveways. Whatever the garden needs to look sharp — we tailor the visit to the property.
All green waste is removed from the property. We don't leave bags at the kerb or fill your green bin. When we're done, the outdoor areas are inspection-ready and you can focus on the rest of the handover.
Because all our gear is battery-powered, we can work the morning of an open inspection without creating a noise problem or leaving petrol fumes hanging around the property. That matters more than you'd think — agents notice, and so do buyers walking through the front gate.

Common questions about pre-sale and end-of-lease gardening.
How do I get my garden ready to sell my house?
Focus on first impressions. The front garden, lawn, and paths are what buyers see first — at the open inspection and in the photos. A tidy, well-presented garden adds perceived value and makes the whole property feel more cared for. We can do a complete pre-sale garden blitz: mow, edge, weed, prune, trim hedges, mulch beds, pressure clean paths, and remove all green waste. It's one of the highest-ROI things you can do before listing.
What garden work is required for end of lease in the ACT?
In the ACT, tenants are generally expected to return the garden in a condition that's consistent with the start of the tenancy, allowing for reasonable wear and tear. In practice, that means mowed lawns, weeded beds, trimmed hedges, and no rubbish or debris in the yard. If the garden was well maintained when you moved in, it needs to be well maintained when you hand it back. We can handle all of this in a single visit.
How quickly can you do a pre-sale garden cleanup?
Most pre-sale and end-of-lease garden cleanups can be completed in a single visit — usually half a day to a full day depending on the property size and how much work is needed. We understand these jobs are often time-sensitive, so we do our best to schedule them within the same week. Call or text Kai on 0414 058 552 with photos and your timeline.
Can you work on the morning of an open inspection?
Yes, and we often do. Our battery-powered equipment is quiet enough to work in the morning without disturbing neighbours or creating a noise issue during the inspection. No petrol fumes hanging in the air either — the garden smells like a garden, not like a service station.
