Pardon Your Garden understands that the needs of a garden are often complex and diverse.

That’s why they believe good garden care goes well beyond just garden maintenance, and that’s where their Service Add-ons come in.

Read on and elevate your next garden maintenance service with the addition of some Add-ons.

What's an Add-on?

Pardon Your Garden Service Add-ons are individual gardening elements that focus on the overall, long-term health and success of your garden– versus just the ‘here and now’ of how it looks. In addition, Add-ons also recognise and cater to the unique needs and wants of the garden owner.

Garden maintenance service Add-on’s will take your garden from being purely (and usually temporarily) functional to healthy, thriving, attractive and sustainable in the long-term. Furthermore, they also ultimately save you money and bother, because a healthier garden means less chance of things going wrong.

Add-on’s can be booked as an individual service or included in one of our standard garden maintenance services:

The Add-ons

The Garden AWAY gardening service Add-on is for those that aren’t always home to care for their garden. It’s amazing because it includes ALL of the features of any of our other garden services PLUS:

  • Watering plants
  • Manual weeding of lawns and potted plants
  • General care for potted plants
  • Putting out your Council bins in time for waste collection
  • Developing a customised garden maintenance schedule identifying exactly what will be done and when while you’re away
  • Security features noted below.

 

At Pardon Your Garden I’m a home-owner and as such, fully understand the security concerns you may have when you go away. To help ease these concerns I can attend to just your front garden, and/or:

  • Provide you with a police clearance for myself valid within the last 6 months.
  • Meet with you beforehand so you can get to know me.
  • Provide you with the contact details of past customer’s who can provide a verbal reference.

 

The added benefit of the Garden AWAY service Add-on is that you’ve got someone regularly coming to your property and keeping an eye out for anything amiss. Should Pardon Your Garden ever have any concerns they will contact you immediately.

BONUS: your chosen Pardon Your Garden service will be discounted when booking it with the Garden AWAY add-on.

The Garden CARE gardening service Add-on is something EVERY garden can benefit from. Don’t just take my word for it- consider your own health for instance- will you thrive and be your best self if you live on a poor diet? Your answer is likely “no”, and your garden is no different.

Gardens are living, breathing things and they need a “good diet” to be at their best. But it’s often not easy to know what to feed a garden- you can’t exactly share your dinner with it. That’s where Pardon Your Garden comes in- I can:

  • Advise you on the best product/s for your garden’s specific needs
  • Arrange supply, delivery and application of the relevant product/s
  • Provide guidance on how best to feed your garden in the future. 

Garden CARE is a perfect example of “a little effort goes a long way”- you’ll be reaping the rewards for a long time after your gardening service is over.

The Garden CLIMB gardening service Add-on is for those with climbing plants, or those who want them.

Climbing plants can make a beautiful statement about a home, adding an eye-catching frame to your veranda, highlighting an archway or fence, or covering an ugly fence. However, there’s a certain knack to growing and caring for climbing plants in your garden because there’s some unique considerations involved that don’t apply to your other plants.

That’s why I offer the Garden CLIMB Add-on. It includes:

  1. Setting up new climbing plants for success.
  2. Assessing the health of your existing climbing plant/s and addressing any issues that might be identified.
  3. Fastening and training the new growth on an existing climbing plant.
  4. Professional advice on the effective ongoing management of your climbing plant/s.

The Garden DIRT gardening service Add-on is all about that which we take for granted- the soil that makes up the foundation of your garden, and provides a home for your plants.

You might be thinking that “it’s just dirt” and it’s going to continue to be there even if you give it no attention. That may be so, but what you might not realise is that your soil:

  • Should be full of nutrients and all kind of other wholesome goodies.
  • Can be the home to not just your plants, but also a range of other living things.
  • Has the potential to drown, suffocate or starve your plants.
  • Can spread diseases to all of your plants.

Soil is more powerful and has a more important role to play in your garden than you might realise. That’s why Pardon Your Garden provides Garden DIRT. This Service Add-on includes:

  1.  Testing the current nature and health of your soil using both chemical, manual and equipment methods.
  2. Providing a written report outlining my findings, and most importantly what you can do it.
  3. Arming you with the information to remedy your soil issues yourself, or carrying out the work for you.

Your garden soil may look like dirt, but don’t treat it like dirt- arrange a Garden DIRT treatment before it’s too late.

The Garden DOCTOR gardening service Add-on is for those times where your garden ‘catches a bug’ (literally and figuratively!).

Even as a professional gardener it never ceases to amaze me just how many pests and diseases a garden can be impacted by- the list is seemingly endless. And for someone that just isn’t that into gardening, it can be completely baffling. The end result is that people either don’t notice something is wrong with their plants, or don’t act on it until it’s too late.

I highly recommend you keep a close eye on the health of your plants- it’s not as hard as you may think- visit Pardon Your Garden’s FAQ’s to learn more about the signs to watch out for. If you have the slightest concern about any of your plants, book in the Garden DOCTOR as soon as possible- it really can make the difference between the life and death of your garden.

Alternatively you can book in a one-off Garden DOCTOR appointment just to give you peace of mind that everything is in order, or even book in a regular Garden DOCTOR check-up.

If you can get sick, so can your garden, so take steps to maintain its wellbeing by booking the Garden DOCTOR gardening service Add-on.

BONUS: the Garden DOCTOR gardening service Add-on is included for FREE when booking any other Pardon Your Garden service (excludes cost of treatment products).

The Garden LAYERS gardening service Add-on provides the perfect finish to your Pardon Your Garden service. It involves:

  1. The supply and application of a thick layer of mulch to your garden beds.
  2. Choice between a range of different products.
  3. Trade discounts passed on to the customer.

Customers often opt to include the LAYERS gardening service Add-on because it’s a cost-effective way to elevate the appearance of their garden by giving it a polished finish and making it look more attractive. What’s more it also helps to:

The Garden LEASE gardening service Add-on is for those who rent. It includes:

  1. Providing a report on company letterhead detailing the gardening and outdoor maintenance work that Pardon Your Garden has carried out at the property.
  2. Hand-signing your report by Pardon Your Garden’s Owner-Operator.
  3. Garden condition photographs.
  4. Written reference regarding the overall condition and management of the outdoor area/s by the tenants (based on the assessment of Pardon Your Garden’s Owner-Operator.

 

Given the ultra-competitive rental market in Perth at present, renters tell me that having good rental references and a positive tenant record help to give them the edge over other applicants. The Garden LEASE gardening service Add-on is the perfect way to really stand out from the crowd when it comes to your rental history – it shows a high level of care for the rental property and Property Manager’s love it!

Pardon Your Garden’s Garden Q&A gardening service Add-on is for those that have challenging questions about their garden and need a clear, reliable, expert answer

The Garden STRAIGHT gardening service Add-on will help your plants to be strong and robust. No one likes wonky plants in their gardens, or worse, beautiful plants that snap when a strong wind hits. To address this, Pardon Your Garden will supply and install as many plant stakes as you require to support your plants in need.

A plant stake is a rod or post structure that helps your tall plants to grow straight by:

  • Giving the plant the strength to withstand heavy rains, strong winds and thunderstorms
  • Counteracting the weight that comes with a plant that bears fruit or has heavy branches
  • Giving the plant a singular direction to grow in.

 

Garden STRAIGHT could literally save lives…those of your plants. Once I know what type/s of plants require a stake, I will use my experience to select and supply a stake suited to the specific needs of your plants, along with the ties and supports to go with it.
