  • Lawn feeding: Mar, Oct

    Seasonal fertiliser is applied on the scheduled visit closest to March and October.

  • Lawn renovation window: Oct

    Scarifying, aerating and overseeding a tired lawn — usually booked in October, the start of the cool season.

  • Palm pruning: May–Jun

    Dead fronds and old flower or fruit bunches are removed before peak summer heat.

  • Heat-stress watch: Jul–Aug

    Crews watch planting more closely for heat stress and top up mulch through the hottest months.

  • Irrigation check + pool chemistry: Jun–Sep

    A weekly irrigation check is added to garden visits, and large pools move to twice-weekly visits, as summer heat speeds up water loss and burns off chlorine faster.

FAQ

Questions about Garden Care

How is the monthly price calculated?
It's based on your garden's size, whether the lawn is natural or artificial, your pool size, how complex the planting is, and how many trees you have. Use the calculator on this page for an exact price.
Is VAT included in the price?
No. Prices shown are in AED and exclude 5% VAT, which is added to your invoice.
What counts as a 'complex' garden?
Complexity reflects how much variety and detail work is involved — mixed planting beds, hedging, container plants and water features all add time compared with a simple lawn-and-border garden.
Can I cancel or change my Garden Care package?
Yes. Garden Care packages are monthly and roll over automatically. Give us 30 days' notice to cancel, or get in touch any time to adjust your package as your garden changes.
Do you supply plants, fertiliser and pool chemicals?
Yes, routine consumables — fertiliser, pool chemicals and basic materials — are included in your monthly plan. Plant replacement and larger materials are quoted separately.
What happens to my garden and pool in summer?
Visit frequency increases where needed: gardens get a weekly irrigation check added from June to September, and large pools move to twice-weekly visits, because heat burns off chlorine faster.
Which areas do you service?
We currently cover a set list of Dubai communities — see the service areas list on this page. If yours isn't listed, ask us; we're adding new areas regularly.
What if I'm not happy with a visit?
Tell us within 48 hours and we'll send a crew back to put it right at no extra cost.
