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 keeps Catalina's family blocks trimmed year-round, from the streets around the Country Club fairways to the short run down to the Batemans Bay town centre and Clyde River foreshore.
Catalina is one of the more settled corners of the Bay — long-term owner-occupiers on family blocks close to the shops and schools, with a smaller rental patch mixed through. The ground here is sandy coastal soil sitting over a clay base, which holds a couch or kikuyu lawn well through the warmer months, while buffalo does better in the shadier gardens tucked under established trees.
Postcode 2536 covers Catalina and its neighbours Batehaven and Mogo, and the suburb sits a short drive from the Batemans Bay town centre and the Clyde River foreshore. A lot of our regulars here are Catalina Country Club members — the 27-hole course dates back to 1920 as the old Bateman’s Bay Golf Club — and after a round most people would rather be doing anything other than mowing the back lawn.
Book your free Catalina quoteEvery visit is set to the block — a tidy street-front lawn near the Country Club, or a bigger family yard toward Mogo.
Weekly, fortnightly or monthly visits with edges cut clean around drives, paths and garden beds, timed to how fast the lawn’s growing that month.
Fence lines, letterbox posts and the tight spots around the shed, finished as neat as the open lawn.
Kikuyu left too long after a wet spell gets brought back under control with multiple passes and a proper catch, not just a quick scalp.
Clippings bagged and carted off, driveways and paths blown down, so the job looks finished, not just started.
Larger blocks toward Mogo and the rural fringe get ride-on gear where a push mower would take all day.
Scheduled visits for Catalina landlords and property managers so the lawn’s ready before an inspection, no reminder calls needed.
Mowing keeps the lawn in check; the gardening side keeps the rest of the block looking after itself. Hedge trims, pruning, weeding, bed clean ups, mulching and green waste removal are all on the list, from $70 for a basic visit.
The sandy soil over clay drains well but dries out fast once the sun’s properly on it through summer, so a mulch top-up before the heat sets in makes a real difference to the garden beds. We can time a gardening visit around the same call as your mow, so it’s one operator, one booking, and the whole block sorted at once.

Important: These are Catalina starting guide prices. Your final quote depends on lawn size, access, grass height, clipping volume and how often it’s done.
A lawn cut every fortnight around the Country Club is a quick job. One left through a wet spring is a different job altogether. A free onsite look means we quote it to the actual ground, not a guess.

From the Country Club fairways to the Clyde River foreshore, our operators live and work on this stretch of the Bay.
Small maintained lawns from $50, gardening from $70; bigger or overgrown jobs quoted to the actual work, no surprises.
Every Fox Mowing NSW operator is fully insured — peace of mind for homeowners, landlords and managers alike.

Growth picks up through spring and holds on strong into a warm-temperate Far South Coast summer, milder than Sydney but still enough heat and rain to keep a kikuyu lawn moving. Cooler months slow things right down, and that’s when a lot of Catalina gardens get their hedges and beds sorted instead.
We mow right across the Catalina operator patch and into Batehaven, Mogo and the run down to Batemans Bay. Nearby? Ask and we’ll sort a local operator.
