How To Tell

Signs Your Lawn Needs A Mow

It's Past Ankle Height

If the grass is brushing your ankles or you can see seed heads forming, it has been too long between cuts.

Patches Or Bare Spots

Patches usually mean the lawn has been left too long between cuts, or scalped too short. Either way, a proper mow gets it back on track.

Weeds Taking Over

Bindii, clover and onion grass turn up when the lawn isn't kept regular. Mowing at the right height is the first defence.

Edges Blurring

If the lawn is creeping into garden beds, over paths or under the fence, the edges need a sharp clean-up.

What's Included

Every Mow, Done Properly

One fixed price. Every mow includes:

  • Lawn mown at the right height for the grass type and season
  • All edges trimmed sharp along paths, fences and garden beds
  • Whipper-snipping around obstacles like trees, posts and taps
  • Clippings collected on every job, never left on the lawn
  • Paths, driveway and outdoor floors blown off
  • A visual check of the lawn for problem spots flagged to you
  • Gates closed, dogs let back inside if needed
  • Yard left at least as clean as we found it
  • Optional: green waste taken away with us (instead of your bin)
  • Optional: aerate, weed-and-feed or top-dress add-ons on request

How Often

Best Time to Book a Mow in Melbourne's West

Mowing frequency changes with the seasons in Victoria. Cut too often and you stress the grass. Leave it too long and you scalp it on the way back. Here is what we recommend for most lawns in our service area.

Lock in a regular schedule with C&J and we will adjust the frequency as the seasons change, no calls back and forth, no charged extras.

  • Spring (Sep to Nov): weekly or fortnightly, the grass is racing
  • Summer (Dec to Feb): every 10 to 14 days, depends on watering
  • Autumn (Mar to May): every 2 to 3 weeks, slowing down
  • Winter (Jun to Aug): every 4 to 6 weeks, sometimes a skip
  • One-off catch-ups: any time, no commitment

Tools Of The Trade

Equipment We Bring

We bring our own gear, fuelled and sharpened. You point us at the lawn, we do the rest.

  • Petrol Victa or Honda rotary mower with regularly sharpened blades
  • Battery-powered line trimmer for sharp clean edges
  • Backpack blower for paths, driveway and outdoor floors
  • Sealed catcher so clippings come with us, not stay on your lawn
  • Spare fuel, spare line, spare blade. No mid-job stalls
  • Boot mat and tarp so the ute does not track grass through your place

Lawn Mowing FAQs

Common Questions

It depends on the size of the lawn and how often. Tell us the lawn (or send a photo) and we will come back with a fixed price the same day. No hourly meter, no surprises.

In spring and summer, weekly or fortnightly keeps it looking sharp. In autumn and winter it slows down, monthly is usually fine. We can adjust the schedule as the seasons change.

Yes. One-off mow before a sale, an inspection, or just to catch up after a busy month, no commitment required.

Yes. Clippings are collected on every job and we take them with us. We do not leave a pile on your lawn or bag for the bin.

We are based in Bacchus Marsh and cover Melbourne's western and inner-western suburbs through to Sunbury and Gisborne. Give Craig a call if you are not sure.

No. As long as we can access the gates and the back yard, we can mow without you home. We will text when we finish, and your invoice comes through after.

If the lawn is too wet, we reschedule to the next dry day, no charge. Wet mowing wrecks the lawn and clogs the gear, not worth it for either of us.

Friendly dogs are fine, we make a fuss of them. For nervous or protective dogs we ask you to bring them inside or tie them up while we work. We will text when we arrive so you can sort it.

Yes. We bring everything: mower, line trimmer, blower, fuel, spare line. You just need to point us at the lawn.

Most front-and-back suburban blocks take 45 to 90 minutes. Bigger blocks or first-time catch-up jobs can take longer. We tell you the rough time when we quote.
