From our initial conversation to the finished product, I could not be happier with the work John completed for us. John turfed both the front and year yard after synthetic grass had been down for some time. John could not have been more helpful or upfront about our project and everything was exactly as he said it would be, could not recommend more.

Frequently asked questions

How much do gardeners typically charge?

Gardening costs vary depending on the job type, the size of the area and whether plants or materials are supplied. Regular maintenance visits are generally less expensive per visit than one-off tidy-ups or planting work, and after-hours or urgent jobs usually attract higher rates. The live pricing shown on this page reflects current call-out and labour rates for your area.

Do gardeners charge call-out fees?

Many gardeners charge a call-out fee to attend your property, which is typically separate from hourly labour and materials. For smaller jobs this fee is often factored into a minimum charge, and after-hours attendance is commonly billed at a higher rate.

What qualifications should I look for in a gardener?

Gardeners don't usually require a government-issued licence in Australia. Instead, look for industry memberships or recognised credentials from bodies such as Greenlife Industry Australia, the Australian Institute of Horticulture, Hort Innovation, and state landscaping associations like QALI, LIAV, LIAWA and LASA, which indicate industry training or professional affiliation.
