Absolutely fantastic service. The team transformed our lawn in no time at all, and the edging was completed with incredible precision. The attention to detail exceeded our expectations, and the finished result looks outstanding.
Fox Mowing NSW brings ride-on mowing and slashing to Kenthurst's lifestyle blocks, from the paddocks near Kenthurst Park to the acreage further out toward the old citrus country.
Kenthurst properties are big by Sydney standards — lifestyle blocks averaging around 2 hectares, plenty of them still carrying the citrus-orchard and poultry-farm character the district was built on in the 1890s. A push mower doesn’t get through a block this size in a reasonable afternoon, so most of our Kenthurst work is ride-on mowing and slashing, sized to the paddock rather than a suburban lawn.
The ground under postcode 2156 is a fertile shale-derived clay loam that suits buffalo and couch well, though it turns heavy in the wet season and needs the mowing height adjusted to suit. From the blocks around Kenthurst Park and The Hills Grammar School through to the wholesale plant nurseries further out, we know which paddocks need a slasher and which just need a standard cut kept tidy.
Book your free Kenthurst quoteEvery visit is scoped to the block, whether that’s two hectares of paddock or a smaller lawn closer to the house.
The right gear for Kenthurst’s larger blocks — ride-ons and slashers where a push mower would take all day.
Weekly, fortnightly or monthly cuts for the lawn areas closer to the house, with clean edges around paths and garden beds.
Fence lines, gates and the tight corners around sheds and driveways that ride-on gear can’t reach.
Paddock grass left to run for a season gets brought back with multiple passes and the right slashing equipment.
Clippings caught or mulched, paths and driveways blown down, so the property looks properly finished, not just cut.
Grass kept low along the tree line and bushland boundary, which matters for fire safety on blocks like these.
Mowing is only part of keeping a Kenthurst property looking after itself — our operators also handle hedging, pruning, weeding, garden clean ups, mulching and green waste removal, from $70 a visit.
Plenty of Kenthurst blocks still carry mature hedge rows and garden borders left over from the area’s citrus-growing and nursery history, and those need regular attention to stay in shape. A seasonal mulch top-up also helps garden beds hold moisture through the drier stretches on the heavier clay loam.

Honest starting prices so you know roughly what to expect. Because Kenthurst blocks vary so much in size, an operator generally needs to see the ground before confirming the final figure.
| Lawn service | Guide price from | Typical inclusions |
|---|---|---|
| Small maintained lawn — mow, edge & blow | From $50 | Small, regularly maintained lawns with straightforward access. |
| Medium to large — mow, edges & blow | From $70-$150+ | Mowing, edges and whipper snipping around paths and fences, plus a hard-surface tidy-up. |
| Gardening basic visit | From $70 | Hedging, pruning, weeding, bed tidy and green waste removal, sized to the job. |
| Overgrown lawn recovery | From $100-$250+ | Long, thick growth, multiple passes, extra catcher work and clean-up time. |
| Acreage / ride-on / slashing | Quoted on site | Bigger blocks that need the right gear and time on the ground. |
Important: These are Kenthurst starting guide prices. Your final quote depends on block size, slope, access, grass height and how often the property is serviced.
A block mown fortnightly through spring is a straightforward job. A paddock left over winter and into a wet spring is a much bigger one — a free onsite look means we quote it accurately from the start.
A local operator who understands acreage, not a suburban mowing crew guessing at paddock work.
From the blocks around Kenthurst Park to the nursery country further out, our operators know how this clay loam and this terrain behave.
Smaller lawns from $50, gardening from $70, and larger blocks priced properly once the ground has been seen.
Every Fox Mowing NSW operator is fully insured, which matters when ride-on gear is working close to fences, sheds and gates.
Ride-ons and slashers for paddock areas, standard mowers for lawns closer to the house — matched to the ground, not one-size-fits-all.
Weekly, fortnightly, one-off or seasonal slashing, fitted around the strong Hills District growth flush from spring through summer.
Call 1800 FOX MOW or use the form. Larger blocks are best quoted after a quick onsite look at the terrain.
Spring and summer bring the strong growth flush that pushes bigger Kenthurst blocks toward weekly slashing, while the cooler, elevated plateau climate means warm-season grasses slow down earlier into autumn than lawns closer to the coast. Winter frost settles into low, sheltered corners and shaded tree lines, easing the mowing schedule right back until growth picks up again in spring.
We mow right across the Kenthurst operator territory — Kenthurst, Annangrove, Dural, Middle Dural, Glenorie and Kellyville, plus the wider Hills growth corridor through to Stanhope Gardens, Tallawong and Cheltenham. Nearby but not listed? Ask and we’ll sort a local operator.
Absolutely fantastic service. The team transformed our lawn in no time at all, and the edging was completed with incredible precision. The attention to detail exceeded our expectations, and the finished result looks outstanding.
The team arrived exactly when scheduled and took great care while trimming our hedges. Their workmanship was excellent, and they left the property spotless after completing the job. We would gladly recommend their services to others.
A truly professional gardening service. We needed a large amount of garden waste removed along with a general tidy-up of the yard. The team worked efficiently, completed everything quickly, and left the area looking neat and refreshed.
We have used several gardening and lawn care companies over the years, and Fox Mowing stands out as one of the best. Their service is reliable, professional, and consistently delivered to a high standard. We regularly recommend them to family and friends.
If you want a lawn that looks healthy, neat, and professionally maintained, these are the people to call. The difference they made to our property was impressive, and we couldn't be happier with the result.
We had been battling persistent weeds for months and tried numerous products from local hardware stores without success. After Fox Mowing treated the problem areas, the results were noticeable almost immediately. Our weed issue is finally under control, and the garden looks much better.
Small, tidy Kenthurst lawns around the house start from $50, mowing with edging and blow-down generally runs $70–$150+, gardening visits start from $70, and overgrown recovery sits at $100–$250+. Kenthurst's larger acreage blocks and paddock areas are quoted on site, since a 2-hectare property needs a very different approach to a suburban yard.
Buffalo generally holds up far better than couch in the shaded corners under established trees, since couch needs the full sun it isn't getting near a tree line. Kenthurst's shale-derived clay loam suits both grasses in the open, but a shaded, root-competed patch usually needs buffalo and a slightly higher cut to stay thick.
Yes — ride-on mowing and slashing for the lifestyle blocks that make up most of Kenthurst, which typically run to around 2 hectares (5 acres). These jobs are quoted on site once an operator has seen the ground, the slope and how overgrown the paddock area has become.
Yes — hedging, pruning, weeding, garden bed clean ups, mulching and green waste removal, from $70 a visit. Many Kenthurst properties carry on the district's old citrus and nursery character with established hedges and garden borders, and we can fold that work into the same visit as the mow.
Yes — sitting up on the Hills District plateau, Kenthurst runs cooler overnight than the Sydney basin, so warm-season lawns slow down earlier into autumn and frost can settle in sheltered, low-lying corners over winter. That means fewer mows are needed from May through August compared with the strong spring and summer growth flush.
