Residential Mowing on Merivale sections
Older sections here have lawns broken up by mature trees, garden beds and hedging, so the mow is as much trimming around obstacles as cutting open grass. We leave the cut a little higher under trees, where grass is weaker in the shade.
Merivale's older sections often have mature street trees and established hedges, so the lawn is usually the smaller part of the garden.
North-side silt soils hold moisture well, so lawns keep growing into early summer — expect weekly cuts from October through December.
We cover all of Merivale 8014, including around Merivale Mall, Papanui Road.
Gardens, trees and hedges around the lawn add time, so we confirm the price after a quick look. See the full residential mowing service for what every visit includes.
