Why Choose Jim’s Mowing in Porirua

You can choose to have your lawns cut regularly or a one-off mow

With time scarce and lawn mowing equipment expensive, many of our customers prefer to have their lawn mowing and general garden maintenance taken care of by professionals. 

If your property is tenanted, you may just want a single mow before the new tenants move in, or an ongoing mowing service throughout the year. We can fit in with your schedule and can often get started right away. 

Professional and reliable garden maintenance services 

As a familiar and trusted Porirua lawn mowing and gardening services brand, we take pride in working to a strict schedule and cleaning up upon completion of the job. 

We’ll remove any gardening debris such as lawn clippings or pruned hedge trimmings, and make sure your lawns are mown to the right length to suit the seasons. 

Affordable pricing and upfront lawn mowing quotes 

The cost to get your lawn mown or garden tidied will depend on the size of the area and the current state of your property. We’re completely upfront with our pricing and will discuss what’s involved when we do an on-site inspection. 

Your local Porirua Jim’s Mowing contractor will provide you with a written, no-obligation quote and answer any questions you may have when they arrange a time to meet you. 

Residential property maintenance 

In addition to our residential lawn mowing and garden maintenance services, our team can assist with general property maintenance including rubbish removal and gutter clearing.

Great Service from the crew! They got the job done beyond expectation. We have had bad experiences from our local mowing company, and we were searching for someone that can at least do a tidy job. Nimesh has exceeded this. Definitely going to avail him for the next mowing.

Ryan is an excellent communicator, even when I was in Australia. He got the job done very quickly and even went to the added trouble of sending me before and after photos. Anyone looking for trustworthy, reliable and efficiency should look no further than Ryan.
