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 is based right here in the Shoalhaven's own town centre, from the older streets near Hanging Rock Lookout to the newer estates spreading out toward Worrigee.
Nowra (2541) is the working heart of the Shoalhaven, and it’s where our local operators are actually based — not a call centre hours away. From the older weatherboard streets around the showground to the newer estates spreading out toward Worrigee, we’ve mown most of what this town has to offer.
The ground here mixes fertile river flats along the Shoalhaven with heavier clay loam over shale further from the water, so kikuyu and couch put on serious growth whenever the rain comes through. A lawn left too long after a wet spell turns into a two-visit job fast — regular mowing keeps it a one-visit job.

Weekly, fortnightly or monthly visits with a clean edge along paths and driveways, timed to how fast your grass is actually growing.
Fences, garden edges and the tight corners around Nowra’s older homes, tidied up on every visit.
Kikuyu that’s got away after an East Coast Low is common around here — multiple passes and extra catcher work bring it back under control.
Clippings caught and carted off, hard surfaces blown down, so nothing ends up tracked back inside.
Bigger yards on the outskirts toward Bomaderry and Worrigee get ride-on gear where a push mower would take all day.
Scheduled visits for Nowra rentals and inspections, booked ahead so the property’s ready without you having to chase anyone.
Hedging, pruning, weeding, garden bed clean ups, mulching and green waste removal — our Nowra gardening visits start from $70 and are usually booked alongside the mow, so one operator handles the whole property in a single visit.
With HMAS Albatross close by and a good number of defence families moving through town, tidy garden care that doesn’t need constant supervision is in real demand. We work to a schedule you can rely on, whether that’s fortnightly upkeep or a one-off tidy before an inspection.

Important: These are Nowra starting guide prices. Your final quote depends on lawn size, access, grass height and how often you’d like it done.
A townhouse block near the centre of Nowra takes a fraction of the time a large block toward Worrigee does — a free onsite look gets the number right the first time.
A local operator who answers the phone, turns up on the day, and knows the difference between a river-flat lawn and a clay-loam one.
Our operators live in the Shoalhaven and know the streets from Bens Walk to the showground, not just a postcode on a spreadsheet.
Small maintained lawns from $50, gardening from $70, bigger or overgrown jobs quoted to match the work in front of us.
Every job is covered, which matters to Nowra’s landlords, property managers and homeowners alike.
Edges done, clippings gone, paths blown down — every visit, not just the ones you happen to see.
Weekly, fortnightly, one-off or seasonal — we work around families, commuters and defence postings alike.

Spring and summer bring the fastest growth, especially after an East Coast Low dumps rain on the district — kikuyu and couch can put on a week’s growth in days. Autumn slows things down gradually, and winter mornings stay cool without ever really shutting growth off completely, so most Nowra lawns still need the occasional cut through the cooler months.
We cover the full Nowra operator territory — Nowra, North Nowra, South Nowra, Bomaderry, Bangalee, Cambewarra Village, Nowra Hill, Berry, Huskisson and the Jervis Bay villages beyond. Not sure if you’re in range? Ask and we’ll sort a local operator.

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, well-kept Nowra lawns start from $50. A standard mow with edging and a blow-down generally runs $70–$150+, gardening visits start from $70, and overgrown recovery work is $100–$250+, depending on the block's size and how it's accessed.
Yes — kikuyu that's grown thick and long after heavy rain is one of the most common jobs we handle around Nowra. It usually takes a couple of passes at a raised height with the catcher fitted, then we drop back to a normal cut once it's under control.
It can — blocks on the river flats near town hold moisture and grow faster, while ground further out on heavier clay loam over shale can respond more slowly after a dry spell. We set your mowing schedule to what your lawn is actually doing rather than a fixed calendar.
Yes — the larger blocks common through central Nowra's older streets are a regular part of the job, and we bring the right equipment for the size instead of pushing a small mower around all afternoon.
Yes — hedging, pruning, weeding, garden bed clean ups, mulching and green waste removal, from $70 a visit. Most Nowra customers have the lawn and garden looked after together in one booking.
