Lawn mowing and care near Dunboyne

Lawn mowing and care: what the job involves

Keeping a lawn cut, edged and healthy: regular mowing through the growing season, and the occasional heavier work — scarifying out moss and thatch, aerating, feeding and overseeding — that an Irish lawn, wet and mossy for half the year, usually needs.

How long it takes: Under an hour a visit for most suburban gardens; scarifying and aerating a neglected lawn is a half-day or more, and long grass after a missed month takes much longer to cut.

The full guide to lawn mowing and care — the steps, what is included, the Irish rules, paperwork and questions to ask.

What lawn mowing and care in Dunboyne costs, and why

What jobs on Talqero came to

Not enough comparable jobs yet to publish a range here. Talqero shows a price range only once at least five comparable jobs, agreed prices or offers exist — a range from fewer would describe a handful of jobs, not the market. Post your job and compare the offers you get.

What affects the price

  • Lawn area, and how the mower gets in — through the house, a side passage or steps
  • Frequency: weekly, fortnightly, monthly or a one-off cut
  • Condition: long grass, moss and thatch, slopes and banks
  • Treatments and renovation beyond mowing
  • Whether clippings and moss are taken away
  • VAT: building work on a home is charged at the reduced rate of 13.5% by a VAT-registered business — unless the materials come to more than two-thirds of the price, when Revenue’s two-thirds rule applies the goods rate to the whole job. Ask whether a quote includes VAT.

Rules and grants for lawn mowing and care

The rules in Ireland

Whoever takes green waste, soil or old paving away must hold a waste collection permit.

  • Anybody who takes your waste away must hold a waste collection permit. Handing waste to an unpermitted collector is an offence for the householder, with a fine of up to €5,000 — ask for the permit number, which collectors must show on vehicles and receipts.

What to ask before you choose

  • What sub-base and drainage will you put down?
  • Who removes the soil and waste, and with what permit?
  • What guarantee is there on the work?
  • Is VAT included?
