Home and garden care that respects your routines

Your garden has always been a source of pride and joy. But when upkeep becomes challenging, it shouldn't mean giving up the outdoor space you love.

Our gardening and maintenance support keeps your home livable, accessible and safe. Clear paths, trimmed plants, and tidy outdoor areas reduce hazards and maintain the familiarity of your space. We take care of the heavy lifting so you can continue to enjoy fresh air, natural beauty, and the sense of accomplishment that comes from a space that's truly yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I pick the days and times for gardening visits?

Chevron Down Icon

Of course. You’ll always be able to request the days and times that suit your routine. Weekend or public holiday sessions will have different rates, so it’s best to agree on your schedule with your Helper beforehand.

How does garden and home maintenance fit into a wider care plan?

Chevron Down Icon

Gardening and home upkeep can complement other supports like personal care and companion care. Coordinating these services ensures your plan is tailored to your lifestyle, helping you stay independent, safe and fully engaged in the life you love.

How often can I schedule garden and home maintenance support?

Chevron Down Icon

You can arrange gardening or home maintenance assistance as frequently as you like, whether it’s a one-off session or regular visits. If you need ongoing care (or just enjoy the company!), you can also curate a team of support workers who spend the time understanding your routine and preferences.  

Whether you’ve opted for a Self-Managed Membership or Full Service Membership, you’ll have the freedom to select Helpers you trust and tailor services as life changes.

Remember to be aware of any funding limits if you’re using NDIS or Support at Home program funding, so you know how many hours you can schedule.
