Services
Maintenance can be regular or one-off, and we can visit the site to estimate any job first.
Garden and grounds maintenance
We look after the whole outdoor space around homes, villas, apartments and business premises: lawns, hedges, shrubs, beds and paths. Care can be regular all year, seasonal or a single visit. We first come to see the site, then agree with you what needs doing and how often, so the garden stays tidy without you arranging every visit.
What it includes
- Regular visits on an agreed schedule
- Lawns, hedges, shrubs, beds and paths looked after together
- Seasonal work before and during the tourist season
- One-off jobs, also at short notice
Lawn mowing and lawn care
Mowing at regular intervals through the season, with edges trimmed along paths, beds and walls and the cuttings cleared away. How often we mow depends on the season and on how you use the garden. Smaller gardens are mown with a walk-behind mower; larger lawns, plots and olive groves with a ride-on mower.
What it includes
- Mowing at agreed intervals
- Edges trimmed along paths, beds and walls
- Cuttings cleared away
- Larger plots and olive groves mown with a ride-on mower
Hedge and shrub trimming
We trim hedges straight and tidy and shape shrubs and ornamental plants so they stay dense and well kept. Regular trimming keeps a hedge in shape, and an overgrown hedge can be brought back into order, as the before-and-after photos in the gallery show. Hedges along walls and roads are cut straight and level along their whole length.
What it includes
- Hedges trimmed straight and level
- Shrubs and ornamental plants shaped
- Overgrown hedges brought back into shape
Garden design and landscaping
We plan and plant gardens to suit the space, the Istrian climate and how the property is used, whether it is a family home, a villa or a holiday rental. Before any work starts, we visit the site, talk through what you want and agree the plan with you. The work can include preparing the ground, planting, a new lawn and watering, so the garden is ready to use.
What it includes
- A site visit and a plan agreed with you
- Planting suited to the space and the climate
- Ground preparation, a new lawn and watering, if needed
New lawns
New lawns for new builds, tourist properties and private gardens. We clear and prepare the ground first, because a lawn is only as good as the soil beneath it. Afterwards we can mow the new lawn regularly, so it stays even and green.
What it includes
- Clearing and preparing the ground
- Creating the new lawn
- Regular mowing afterwards, if you want it
Irrigation systems
Watering systems for gardens and yards, planned around where the lawn and plants need water. Istrian summers are long and dry, and a watering system keeps a garden green without daily watering by hand. That matters most for holiday homes that stand empty between guests.
What it includes
- Planning where the lawn and plants need water
- Watering for lawns, hedges and beds
- A system matched to the garden’s layout
Site clearing and preparation
Clearing overgrown ground, removing weeds, scrub and rubbish, and preparing the soil for planting or a new lawn. Useful for new builds, neglected plots and gardens being redone. Once the ground is ready, the planting or new lawn can follow straight away.
What it includes
- Clearing overgrown ground
- Removing weeds, scrub and rubbish
- Preparing the soil for planting or a lawn
Weeding and seasonal work
Weeding lawns, beds and paths, and seasonal tidying of outdoor spaces through the year. Before the tourist season we get the gardens of holiday homes and apartments ready for guests, and during the season we keep them tidy. Seasonal work can also include clearing leaves and tidying the garden in autumn.
What it includes
- Weeding lawns, beds and paths
- Gardens made ready before the tourist season
- Gardens kept tidy during the season
