Good morning all,

I am now fully into my gardening and lawn mowing business but still have some available spaces left for more gardens and lawns to be taken care of. :)

I offer regular or one-off gardening services like weeding, trimming, tidy up's, regular maintenance and lawn mowing services. I also offer my gardening services for properties that want/need to be sold, to make them look tidy and more appealing for the sale.
I am operating on my own, taking pride and care in it as it is my passion and joy!

If you haven't got the time to look after your garden or you are struggling with the physical work that gardening often comes with, give me a call or text on 021 025 1343.

I am Acacia Bay-based but do work all over Taupo, as well as Waitahanui and Kinloch.
