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 covers the working turf farms, market gardens and scattered rural blocks of Pitt Town Bottoms, with ride-on mowing, slashing and flood recovery for a place that's flood plain first and suburb a distant second.
Pitt Town Bottoms (2756) isn’t a housing estate — it’s flood-plain river flats, turf farms and market gardens with only a handful of homes scattered among the paddocks. Our operators treat it that way: acreage mowing, slashing and border trimming built for working land, not a cookie-cutter suburban round.
The ground here is some of the richest alluvium in the Hawkesbury, the traditional base of Sydney’s lawn turf industry, and it grows accordingly once the weather warms. It also floods, and when it does the grass comes back thick and weedy within weeks. We know the difference between a lawn that needs a routine cut and one that needs a proper recovery mow after the water’s dropped.

Ride-ons and slashers for paddocks and larger blocks — the standard gear for most Pitt Town Bottoms jobs.
Once the water drops and the ground firms up, we cut through the thick regrowth in staged passes so it doesn’t smother the lawn underneath.
Fence lines, laneways and irrigation channel edges tidied without disturbing the working turf next door.
The corners a mower can’t reach around sheds, gates and dams, left as neat as the open ground.
After a flood we clear the worst of the silt and debris before mowing so the deck isn’t clogged and the cut is even.
Scheduled mowing for landholders and absentee owners who need the block kept presentable without being on site.
Most Pitt Town Bottoms properties are about the whole rural block, not a manicured garden bed — so our gardening work focuses on keeping fence lines, laneways and yard areas around the house clear and tidy. Weeding, hedge and shrub trimming and green waste removal start from $70 a visit.
River silt left behind after flooding can smother garden beds close to the house just as easily as it smothers lawn, so a post-flood tidy up is often part of the job. We clear it, reset the beds and get everything looking cared for again before the next wet spell.

Winter brings fog off the river flats and slower growth, so a monthly pass usually keeps things in order. Once the weather warms and any wet spell passes, couch and kikuyu on this river-flat soil put on growth fast, and after a genuine flood the regrowth can be thick and weedy within a couple of weeks — that’s when a staged recovery mow earns its keep rather than a single rushed pass.

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 lawns around the handful of houses on the flats start from $50. Mowing with edging and blow-down generally runs $70–$150+, gardening visits start from $70, and overgrown or flood-recovery jobs run from $100–$250+ depending on size, access and how the ground is sitting.
Give the ground a day or two to firm up before a mower goes near it — wet silt just smears and clogs the deck rather than cutting. Once it can take the weight of a mower we rake or blow off the heaviest silt first, then cut high on the first pass and bring the height back down over the following weeks as the grass recovers.
Both — this is genuinely working turf and market-garden country on some of the richest river-flat soil in the Hawkesbury, but the handful of houses and rural blocks here still need regular mowing like anywhere else. We treat house lawns as house lawns and paddocks as paddocks, and quote each on its own terms.
Yes — ride-on mowing and slashing for turf paddocks, market-garden edges and larger rural blocks, quoted on site once we've seen the ground and the access. This is acreage country, so pricing is done to the job rather than off a standard rate card.
Couch is the standout on this river-flat alluvium — it's the same soil base that made this part of the Hawkesbury one of Sydney's original turf-growing districts, and couch shrugs off periodic inundation better than most other lawn types. It does grow hard and fast in the weeks after floodwater recedes, so a follow-up mow sooner rather than later keeps it in check.
