Maintenance

 
At Fox Mowing, our Maintenance Services cover everything you need to keep your outdoor spaces functional, tidy, and well-presented. In addition to regular lawn and garden care—like mowing, edging, pruning, and fertilising—we also offer Gutter Cleaning, High Pressure Cleaning, Clean Ups, Small Repairs, and Drain Cleaning. Whether it’s routine upkeep or one-off jobs, our team delivers prompt, reliable service to help you maintain a safe, polished, and hassle-free environment.

We understand that outdoor maintenance goes beyond aesthetics—it’s about protecting your property and preventing small issues from turning into costly problems. That’s why we use professional tools, safe techniques, and a proactive approach to ensure every task is completed to a high standard, no matter the size of the job.

Our flexible service options mean you can choose exactly what you need, when you need it—whether it’s a seasonal clean-up, preparation for a property sale, or regular ongoing maintenance. With Fox Mowing, you can count on dependable, thorough care that keeps your outdoor areas looking their best all year round.

Gutter cleaning

Maintenance: Fox Mowing Australia is here to guide you in achieving the lawn of your dreams with our comprehensive maintenance tips and tricks.

When was the last time you checked your gutters? Gutter cleaning is not on the top of most people’s priority list, as they say ‘out of sight out of mind’. However gutters play a pivitol role in the structural integrity of your house, helping to protect you home and yard from the damaging and erosive effects of water.

Having clogged gutters will prevent water from draining properly and the water instead will try to find another method of draining which could result in leaking into your home and through your window and ceiling.
This is particularly important during heavy storm where large quantities of water is falling onto your roof. The gutters need to be clear and clean to help the water effectively direct and drain the water.

The build up of leaves, dirt and debris will encourage corrosion in your gutters and down pipes which will eventually end up having to be replaced, along with any repair work required to fix any water damage. This can be extremely expensive.

Having gutters and roofs that are filled with leaves and debris also poses a fire hazard. To protect your home, gutter cleaning should be completed at least twice a year in Autumn and in Spring in preparation for the increased rainfall in winter and hot, dry weather in summer.

And, of course, if you want some additional help and advice on maintenance jobs around your garden, then the simplest solution is to let Fox Mowing look after it all for you.

And while we’re there in your garden, we can do a lot of other stuff too to get your garden looking, and feeling, its best.

Drain Cleaning

Blocked or poorly maintained outdoor drains are more than just an inconvenience—they can lead to water damage, soil erosion, plant death, and even costly repairs. In Australia’s unpredictable climate, especially during storm seasons, it’s crucial to keep your garden’s drainage system clean and clear all year round.

At Fox Mowing, we offer professional drain cleaning services designed to prevent flooding, promote healthy garden growth, and protect your property. Whether you’re dealing with slow-flowing stormwater drains, overflowing garden beds, or soggy patches on the lawn, we’re here to help.

Why Drain Cleaning Is Essential for Australian Properties

Outdoor drains are often overlooked until there’s a serious problem. In many parts of Australia, where heavy rains or seasonal downpours are common, blocked drains can quickly lead to:

• Flooded lawns and garden beds
• Standing water that attracts mosquitoes
• Soil erosion and plant root rot
• Water damage to paths, patios, or home foundations
• Bad smells from decomposing leaves and debris

Regular drain cleaning keeps water flowing where it should—and saves you time, money, and frustration.

Common Causes of Blocked Outdoor Drains

At Fox Mowing, we’ve seen it all. The most common culprits behind clogged garden and stormwater drains include:

• Fallen leaves and bark
• Mulch and garden debris
• Dirt, silt, and sand washed in by rain
• Grass clippings from mowing
• Tree roots growing into drainpipes
• Plastic, rubbish, or broken pipe fragments

We clear out all debris and ensure your drains are operating at full capacity again—quickly and efficiently.

Our Drain Cleaning Services Include:

Stormwater Drain Clearing

We remove debris and sludge from surface drains, pits, and garden grates to keep stormwater flowing properly.

Garden Bed Drainage Checks

We assess and clear garden drains to prevent plant damage caused by excessive moisture or flooding.

Yard Drainage Maintenance

We inspect and clean French drains, spoon drains, or other landscape drainage systems.

Preventative Cleaning Programs

Ask us about regular maintenance to prevent clogs before they occur—ideal for leafy suburbs or homes surrounded by trees.

Minor Repairs & Advice

Noticed pooling water or a slow drain? We identify the issue and provide practical advice or recommend further plumbing if needed.

When Should You Get Your Drains Cleaned?

We recommend a professional garden drain clean:

• Before and after storm season
• If you notice water pooling on your lawn or near your home
• When your drains smell bad
• If your garden is overly damp or plants are struggling
• At least once a year as preventative maintenance

How Drain Cleaning Supports Overall Garden Health

Blocked drains don’t just cause surface problems—they can damage your garden’s long-term health. By keeping your drainage clear, you also:

• Protect lawn and plant roots from waterlogging
• Prevent fungal diseases caused by excess moisture
• Help irrigation systems function more effectively
• Reduce the risk of structural damage to retaining walls and paved areas

Drain cleaning is a simple service that delivers big benefits for your landscape.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I clean my garden drains myself?

You can remove surface debris, but most blockages happen deeper in the system. We have the tools and experience to clean drains thoroughly and safely.

2. How often should I have my drains cleaned?

Ideally once a year, or more often if your garden is prone to leaf fall or stormwater build-up. Regular maintenance reduces the risk of blockages.

3. What areas do you service?

We service a wide range of regions across Australia, including metropolitan, suburban, and rural areas. Get in touch to confirm coverage in your location.

4. Do you use high-pressure water jets or manual clearing?

We typically use safe manual and mechanical clearing methods. If your drains require high-pressure jetting or CCTV inspections, we can refer you to a trusted drainage specialist.

5. Can blocked drains kill plants?

Yes—poor drainage can lead to root rot, nutrient leaching, and disease, especially in water-sensitive species.

High Pressure Cleaning

Over time, outdoor surfaces collect dirt, mould, moss, algae, and built-up grime that not only makes them look worn out but can also create safety hazards. That’s where high pressure cleaning comes in.

At Fox Mowing, we offer professional high pressure cleaning services to restore your driveways, patios, paths, fences, and other hard surfaces to their best condition—without the use of harsh chemicals. Whether you’re preparing your property for sale, giving your garden a refresh, or just tackling slippery surfaces, we’ve got the tools and experience to get the job done right.

What Is High Pressure Cleaning?

High pressure cleaning, also known as pressure washing or jet washing, involves the use of pressurised water to remove surface contaminants like:

• Built-up dirt and grime
• Moss, mould, and mildew
• Oil stains and tyre marks
• Leaf stains and bird droppings
• Cobwebs and wasp nests
• Algae on pavers, decks, and walls

We use professional-grade equipment that’s far more effective (and faster) than a standard hose or DIY pressure washer—delivering deep cleaning without surface damage.

Surfaces We Clean

Our pressure cleaning service is suitable for a wide variety of outdoor areas, including:

• Driveways & Footpaths : Remove stubborn oil stains, dirt, tyre marks, and restore kerb appeal.
• Paved & Tiled Areas: Bring life back to your patio, courtyard, or outdoor entertaining area.
• Decking: Strip away built-up grime and slippery algae from timber decks—ready for resealing if needed.
• Retaining Walls & Fences : Clean brick, concrete, rendered, or timber walls for a fresher, neater look.
• Outdoor Furniture & Fixtures : Refresh your tables, benches, bins, and BBQ areas safely and effectively.
• Pool Areas : Make slippery pool surrounds safe again—ideal before summer entertaining.
• Garden Edging & Decorative Stone : Remove mud and mildew for a clean, finished look in your landscape.

Why Choose High Pressure Cleaning?

In Australia’s climate—where dust, leaf litter, and seasonal rain can cause grime to build up quickly—pressure cleaning provides real, visible results. Benefits include:

• Instant aesthetic improvement
• Removes health and safety risks like mould and moss
• Boosts property value and appeal
• Eco-friendly—just water, no chemicals needed
• Saves money on costly repairs or replacements

When Should You Book a Pressure Clean?

We recommend high pressure cleaning:

• Before selling or leasing your home
• Before sealing or painting outdoor surfaces
• At the start or end of the summer season
• After storms or wet weather
• When surfaces are visibly dirty, discoloured, or slippery

Safe for Your Garden and Pets

At Fox Mowing, we prioritise safety—for your property, plants, and pets. We avoid chemical cleaners and take care not to disturb surrounding plants, lawns, or delicate garden features. We also manage water runoff responsibly, in line with environmental guidelines and local regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Will high pressure cleaning damage my surfaces?

Not with us. We use the correct pressure and attachments for each surface to ensure effective cleaning without causing damage.

2. Do I need to be home during the service?

Not necessarily. As long as we have access to the areas being cleaned and a water supply, we can complete the job and send photos once done.

3. Can you remove oil stains from concrete?

Yes. While some deep stains may not lift completely, our process removes the majority of the grime and significantly improves appearance.

4. How long does it take?

Most jobs take between 1–3 hours, depending on the size of the area. We’ll provide an estimate based on your needs.

Rubbish Removal

A tidy garden isn’t just about healthy lawns and well-pruned trees—it’s also about getting rid of the mess left behind. Whether it’s fallen branches, leaf litter, excess green waste, or general outdoor rubbish, a cluttered garden can spoil the look of your property and become a safety or fire hazard.

That’s where we come in. At Fox Mowing, we provide fast and reliable rubbish removal services to help you reclaim your outdoor spaces. Whether it’s part of your regular garden maintenance or a one-off clean-up, we take care of the mess so you don’t have to.

Why Proper Rubbish Removal Matters

Rubbish might seem harmless at first, but leaving it to build up can create serious problems, such as:

• Attracting pests like rats, snakes, and insects
• Increasing bushfire risk, especially in summer
• Smothering grass and garden beds, hindering growth
• Blocking drains, which can lead to flooding
• Ruining kerb appeal and reducing property value

Our eco-conscious rubbish removal services keep your property safe, clean, and looking its best all year round.

House and Window Cleaning

Your home’s exterior is the first thing people see—and nothing boosts its appearance like clean surfaces and crystal-clear windows. Over time, dust, grime, mould, and weather stains build up on walls, fascias, eaves, and glass, dulling the look of your property and even leading to long-term damage.

At Fox Mowing, we offer reliable, high-quality house and window cleaning services that help keep your property looking fresh, clean, and cared for—inside and out. Whether you’re preparing to sell, welcoming guests, or just want to give your home a facelift, we’ve got you covered.

Australia’s weather—sun, wind, salt, dust, rain—can be tough on your home. Regular cleaning offers several benefits:

• Enhances street appeal and boosts property value
• Removes mould, mildew, and stains before they cause damage

• Helps prevent costly repairs to surfaces, frames, and sills

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

We recommend a house wash every 12 months and window cleaning every 3–6 months, depending on your environment (e.g. dusty, coastal, or leafy areas may need more frequent care).

Property Maintenance

Property Maintenance can take a lot of work. Along with gardening and mowing your lawn you will also have to consider:

Regular gutter cleaning : Blocked gutters serve a purpose of guiding rainwater off your roof and down the drain instead. If they are blocked they are unable to fulfil this purpose and this could cause water damage to your property along with damage to your gutters. Full gutters are also a fire hazard and should be regularly emptied at least a couple of times a year.

Drain Cleaning : Outside drains need to be well maintained and kept clear of all debris at the point that they enter the ground otherwise they will become blocked and areas are more likely to become flooded.

High Pressure Cleaning : Concrete, pathways, exterior walls and fences all start to show the effects of being out in the weather. Regular pressure cleaning removes the build up of dirt, oil and mould brightening up your property and giving it a much needed facelift!

Rubbish Removal & Garden Clean-ups : Most people are guilty of having a pile of rubbish, building equipment or green waste lying around their property that they plan to get rid of but haven’t had the opportunity to so far. A good and thorough garden clean-up including rubbish removal, hedging and tidying will greatly alter the appearance of your garden creating more space for entertaining.

Window Cleaning : We all know how quickly and easily windows can become dirty, grimy and mouldy, particularly those that are exposed to the elements. Window cleaning, especially if you have double storey is difficult for the average person to undertake. Outdoor windows need to be cleaned at least twice a year – otherwise what’s the point to having a window if you can’t see out of it properly?

Having a well maintained and manicured garden and property will not only attract the envy of the neighbours but will enable you to enjoy your backyard without thinking of a hundred things that need to be done or improved to make it look better.

And, of course, if you want some additional help and advice on maintenance jobs around your garden, then the simplest solution is to let Fox Mowing look after it all for you.
And while we’re there in your garden, we can do a lot of other stuff too to get your garden looking, and feeling, its best.
