Mowing the lawn cost guide 2022

Having a newly cut lawn can make your garden look more attractive all year round and provides a space for you to relax and enjoy. Cutting the lawn is a task we either enjoy or prefer to let the professionals do it for us. You may not have the equipment or now find it difficult to do due to injury, illness or old age. What ever the reason there are gardeners out there ready to help you maintain your garden lawn.

Hiring a gardener to mow your lawn needn't cost the earth, especially if you have a regular ongoing arrangement or contract set up with them. The average hourly rate for the services of a gardener in the UK is £28 but this varies from region to region and also depends on the size of the company and its overheads. If they are using your own lawn mower you may also be able to get a cheaper rate. We have tabulated a list showing how much it will cost to mow a medium sized lawn in various location around the UK based of the average hourly rate of a gardener in that area.

How much will it cost to mow my lawn?

The cost of mowing a lawn will be dependent on the size of the lawn as well as the gradient of the garden and any preparation work involved like removing ornaments and pots from the lawn to have the cleared space ready to mow. Most Gardeners will arrive at your property with their own tools, such as a lawn mower, a strimmer for the edging, and a sack to remove the fresh cut grass. If a Gardener is arriving and using equipment that you have provided, this will reduce their charge for mowing the lawn, also if you have a brown bin from your local council to dispose of the grass cuttings, rather than the Gardener having to remove the cuttings for you, this too will lower their overall cost for the job.
