Grounds Maintenance for Developers and Builders
Urban Lawnscape is a Melbourne grounds maintenance and soft landscaping company built around housing developments. Most of our work is for major residential developers, within housing estates across Melbourne's growth corridors, keeping open space, nature strips, streetscapes and vacant lots looking right from the first stage to the last. If you're a developer, builder or estate manager, we can handle the lot under one contractor.
What we do for developers
Large area mowing of open space, reserves, nature strips and vacant lots
Weed control with boom and spot sprayers for turf and garden areas
Soft landscaping, including building and replenishing mulch bowls across entire developments and planting garden beds through to 45 L trees
Site clean-ups: slashing nature strips, collecting windblown rubbish before turfing, and collecting and properly disposing of illegally dumped hard waste
Front yard landscaping packages for new homes, designed within developer guidelines
Why developers use one contractor
Running separate contractors for mowing, spraying, mulching and rubbish creates gaps. The mowers don't pick up the rubbish, the sprayers don't top up the mulch, and nobody owns the overall look of the estate.
When one crew handles all of it, the estate is maintained as a whole. You get one point of contact, one schedule, and a team that notices problems early, whether that's a weed outbreak in a park bed, a mulch bowl that's lost its shape or a pile of dumped waste on a vacant lot.
Keeping estates sales-ready
Buyers judge an estate as they drive through it. Tidy nature strips, clean garden beds, healthy street trees and mown reserves tell them the estate is well looked after. We keep display areas, entries and streetscapes presentable while stages are released and homes are built, so your estate makes the right first impression.
Supporting builders and handovers
Builders need nature strips and front yards finished so homes can be handed over and estate requirements met. We clean up and prepare nature strips before turfing, and our front yard packages give buyers a garden designed within the estate's guidelines, using quality materials and locally sourced plants. We can talk through delivering front yards across multiple lots.
How we work
Urban Lawnscape is fully licensed and insured, including public liability cover. Our crews work Monday to Friday and are experienced with brush cutters, blowers, edgers, ride-on equipment and large site cleans. We plan work around active construction, keep sites safe and tidy, and we complete the job on time, every time.
