Coastal breeze, salt spray and sandy soils define most Caves Beach lawns. Buffalo on street verges needs a higher deck to protect leaf and colour, while sunny backyards with kikuyu/couch can run tighter after rain. We set height and pattern to each area so there’s no scalping on dunes and no tearing on softer patches.
Lots of homes here cop windblown sand and leaf fall from coastal banksias. We trim around sleepers and pavers, square up the kerb line, then do a thorough blow-down of paths, decks and the driveway so grit doesn’t track inside. Want an inspection-ready finish? We can switch from mulching to catching and remove clippings.
Growth surges after summer southerlies and storms; winter slows with shade from fences and two-storey builds. We adjust visit frequency, secure gates, work around pets and send a quick message when the job’s done.
We regularly help with:
Consistent cuts tuned to coastal conditions to protect colour and density.
Crisp kerb, path and garden edges for instant street appeal.
Thorough clean of paths, decks and driveway—no sand left behind.
Mulching for sandy soils or full removal for inspection-ready finishes.
Selective control for bindii, clover and paspalum with clear re-entry advice.
Slow-release and liquid feeds to boost colour after wind and salt.
Spring–summer often needs weekly or fortnightly cuts; winter stretches to 3–4 weeks with coastal shade. We match visits to growth.
Yes—higher cut on buffalo, adjusted patterns after storms, and a full blow-down so sand doesn’t grind into pavers or decks.
Mulching helps sandy soils keep moisture; after long growth or for inspections we switch to catching and remove clippings.
Absolutely—if we’ve got access, we’ll complete the job, secure gates and message when it’s finished and pet-safe.
Buffalo: usually 40–50 mm to buffer wind and salt. Kikuyu/couch can run slightly lower. We adjust by season and exposure.
