Things to consider before you book
The local conditions that shape the job, the best time of year to book, and what to sort out before you choose a gardener.
Moderate Water Hardness
Northern Adelaide's water is moderately hard — mineral deposits build up gradually on glass, tiles, taps, and fixtures. Regular professional cleaning helps manage the build-up before it becomes stubborn.
What's in a good Gardening quote?
A good quote spells out how the job is priced and what's covered — labour, materials, prep and clean-up — so you're comparing like for like. Check what each gardener's quote covers before you choose.
Worth knowing: getting two or three quotes is the simplest way to land a fair price — and it costs you nothing.
- 01Green waste removal
Whether clippings, weeds and prunings are taken away.
- 02Task breakdown

- 03Plant and mulch specs
Species names, pot sizes, and mulch type and depth.
- 04ABN and insurance
Both on the quote so you are covered.
- 05Quote expiry
