Gardens too big for a standard visit
A Castle Hill back garden is often several times the size of an inner-suburb one. We quote by what the garden needs rather than a fixed hour, because the usual slot simply does not get round these blocks.

Gardener Castle Hill
Castle Hill gardens are bigger than most of Sydney and a good share of them have been planted for decades. We keep them in shape with regular visits sized to the block, rather than a standard hour that was never going to get round it.

What upkeep looks like here
Big blocks, old plantings, serious hedges
Around three quarters of Castle Hill homes are free-standing houses, many on generous blocks, and the suburb was orchard and market-garden country before it was suburban. That history shows up in the gardens, and it is why a standard maintenance slot rarely fits.
Legacy plantings from the orchard era
Old fruit trees, established screens and decades-old shrubs are common here. They respond well to staged, careful pruning and badly to a hard cut-back, so we work them over a few visits rather than all at once.
Long hedges and real screening
Boundary hedges on blocks this size can run for tens of metres and do genuine screening work. Keeping a face straight over that distance is a different job to trimming a front screen, and it is worth doing on a proper cycle.
What we do on a visit
Our garden maintenance services in Castle Hill
Most Castle Hill properties book several of these together, because on a block this size the jobs stack up between visits.
Hedge trimming in Castle Hill
Long boundary hedges, front screens and formal shapes cut to a straight, clean face. On the longer Castle Hill runs we set a line and work to it, because a hedge that wanders is obvious from the street.
How we trim hedgesTree pruning and trimming in Castle Hill
Canopies lifted off roofs, gutters and fences, and old plantings thinned carefully. The established trees here are worth staging the work on rather than taking back hard in one go.
See our pruning and trimmingWeeding in Castle Hill
Beds, paths, paving joints and gravel cleared back to a clean finish, roots included. On a large garden this is the job that decides whether the whole block reads as maintained.
How we handle weedingMulching in Castle Hill
Mulch topped up across large bed areas at a depth that holds moisture and keeps regrowth down. We keep it clear of trunks and surface roots rather than piling it against them.
What our mulching involvesTurf laying in Castle Hill
New lawn over prepared and levelled soil, with a variety matched to the light the space gets. Large Castle Hill lawns often have both full sun and deep shade under old trees, so one turf rarely suits the whole area.
How we lay new turfTree lopping and removal in Castle Hill
Removing a tree that has outgrown its spot or come down in a storm. The Hills Shire controls removal and heavy pruning of many established trees, and we check and flag it at quoting stage.
About our tree lopping workRubbish and land removal in Castle Hill
Prunings, hedge clippings, old turf and yard rubbish taken away when we finish. A single hedge cut on a Castle Hill block can fill a load on its own, and it all leaves with us.

What changes a Castle Hill quote
On blocks this size the variables that matter are not the ones people expect.
- Actual garden area. Not block size. How much of it is planted bed, hedge and lawn decides the visit length, and it varies enormously across Castle Hill.
- Hedge run length. Metres of hedge is often the single biggest factor in a Hills quote. We measure it rather than estimating.
- Age of the plantings. Old trees and shrubs want staged pruning across a few visits. We plan that out rather than taking everything back at once and leaving you with bare structure.
- Tree approvals. The Hills Shire controls removal and significant pruning of many established trees. We check before quoting, not after.
- Waste volume. A large garden generates real volume. We size the removal properly in the quote instead of adding to it afterwards.

-
Agree a scope and a cycle
A fixed price per visit sized to the block, not a standard hour, and a cycle that suits how fast this garden actually grows.

We visit and clean up
The same crew each time, so nobody needs re-briefing on a garden this size. All waste leaves with us and the paths and driveway are swept down.
Terry and his team are fantastic to work with.
The team have been very professional with their work, communication and they were also fast paced.
They use very high quality materials and workmanship is flawless.

Castle Hill questions
What Castle Hill homeowners ask us
My garden is large. Do you charge by the hour?
No. We quote the garden, not an hour. On Castle Hill blocks a standard hourly slot usually does not get round the whole property, which is how gardens end up half done. We price what the visit needs to cover and put it in writing.
I have a very long boundary hedge. Can you keep it straight?
Yes. On the longer Hills runs we set a line and work to it rather than cutting by eye, because over twenty or thirty metres any drift shows from the street. Long hedges usually need two cuts a year here.
I have old fruit trees from the orchard days. Can they be saved?
Often, yes, with staged pruning over a few visits rather than one hard cut-back. Old trees respond badly to having everything taken at once. We work out what is worth keeping when we quote.
Do I need council approval to remove a tree in Castle Hill?
Often, yes. The Hills Shire controls removal and significant pruning of many established trees. We check the tree when we quote and tell you before anything is booked in.
Do you cover Kellyville, Glenhaven and Dural too?
Yes. We work across Castle Hill 2154 and the neighbouring suburbs including Kellyville, Glenhaven, Dural, Norwest, Cherrybrook, Baulkham Hills and West Pennant Hills.
