16 May 2026
Spring reset (September–October)
Spring is the biggest tidy-up season in Perth. After winter rains everything has grown — weeds especially — and a thorough reset (weeding, hedging, edging) sets the garden up for the warmer months. Booking early in spring means you beat the rush and your yard looks great heading into summer.
Pre-summer prep (November)
A November visit focuses on tidying for outdoor entertaining — neat edges, trimmed hedges, mulched beds. It's also a good time to identify dry spots and high-fire-risk overgrowth before peak summer.
Autumn weed control (March–April)
Autumn is the sneaky season — weeds set seed and you don't notice until winter hits. A tidy-up in March or April keeps the garden from turning into a spring catch-up job.
Pre-inspection or pre-sale refreshes
Real estate inspections, open homes and rental inspections all benefit from a quick garden tidy-up. Even an hour or two of weeding and edging makes a property feel cared for in photos and walk-throughs.
