Fox Mowing NSW keeps Double Bay's courtyards, terraces and strata gardens looking sharp, from the ferry wharf up to the boutique strip around the Golden Sheaf Hotel.
Double Bay (2028) is one of the more densely built harbourside suburbs, and with flats and units making up the large majority of dwellings, most of the greenery here lives in courtyards, terraces and shared strata gardens rather than sprawling private lawns. That changes the job — it’s less about a big open cut and more about neat, careful work in a smaller space, done well.
The suburb sits in a sheltered position between Point Piper and Darling Point, so the mild maritime climate is kinder than the more wind-exposed suburbs further along the peninsula, though gardens closer to the water near the ferry wharf still pick up some salt influence. Whether it’s a courtyard behind the shopping strip or a common garden at a strata block, our operators size the visit to the space.

The mowing keeps a small lawn or courtyard in shape; the gardening keeps the rest of the space looking as sharp as the shopping strip out front. Our Double Bay operators handle hedge trimming, pruning, weeding, garden bed clean-ups, mulching and green waste removal, from $70 for a basic visit.
With apartments making up the bulk of Double Bay’s housing, a lot of the gardening here is container planting, small courtyard beds and shared strata grounds rather than large open gardens, and we treat that as a specialty rather than an afterthought. Where a building shares grounds, we can coordinate one visit that covers the whole property.

Sitting sheltered between Point Piper and Darling Point, Double Bay has a milder climate than the more exposed suburbs further along the peninsula, though gardens closer to the water near the ferry wharf still get some salt influence. Spring and any wet summer stretch bring the fastest growth in courtyards and strata beds alike, autumn is tidy-up time before things slow, and winter settles into a quieter pace.
