Commercial landscape maintenance services

core services
What every contract can include
Scoped to the site, scheduled monthly, and delivered by the same crew each visit.
Grounds & Turf Maintenance
Mowing, edging and turf health programs for lawns that take heavy foot traffic, from ride-on mowing of open lawns to detail edging along paths and kerbs.
Garden Bed & Mulch Care
Weeding, pruning, fertilising and mulching on a set cycle to keep beds healthy and well presented. We recommend recycled bark mulch wherever it suits the planting.
Irrigation Management
System checks, repairs and scheduling that catch leaks, blockages and dry zones early, before they show up as dieback.
Pruning & Tree Care
Hedging, shaping and canopy work that keeps sight-lines, signage, access routes and building edges clear.
Seasonal Colour & Planting
Replacement planting and rotational colour, timed for the season and for the events and peak periods that matter to the site.
Hard Surface & Site Presentation
Paths, forecourts and entry statements kept clear of green waste and overgrowth, so the site looks cared for from the kerb.
also available
Beyond the monthly schedule
Most of our work is programmed maintenance, but sites change. These services can be added to a contract or quoted as one-off works:
- Landscape design and consultation, led by our in-house landscape designer.
- Site rejuvenation for grounds that have been neglected or are changing hands, including replanting and clean-ups.
- Irrigation installation and upgrades, completed by our team or a specialist irrigation contractor we manage.
- Tree maintenance and arborist works, completed by qualified arborists we engage and supervise.
- Storm and emergency response, with 24/7 contact when something cannot wait until the next visit.
how we work
How our contracts work
- No lock-in contracts. Many of our clients have been with us for years, and we would rather keep them through the quality of our work than a clause in a contract. The scope and monthly schedule are agreed up front, so you can budget for them and hold us to them.
- Our own people. Maintenance is delivered by Advance crews. The only work we may subcontract is specialist irrigation and arborist work, and we manage it.
- Labour done right. More than 90% of our team are permanent employees rather than casuals, and everyone has permanent work rights. We employ everyone directly, with no sham contracting, pay well above award and share an annual profit share across the whole team.
- Same-business-day replies. Current clients get a reply to requests on the same business day.
- Measured by you. We attend KPI and site meetings and act on your inspections.
- Safe on your site. Cm3 prequalified, with a WHS system, safe work method statements, toolbox talks and incident reporting behind every crew.
large site specialists
Maintenance for large commercial sites
Landscape construction and landscape maintenance often get treated as the same thing, but they are very different businesses. Maintenance is all we do, and we aim to do it very well. How maintenance differs from construction.
We focus on larger commercial sites: shopping centres, hotels and resorts, retirement villages, hospitals, office precincts and body corporates. See the industries we serve.
What we don’t take on:
- Landscape construction and new builds.
- Small commercial sites, where one gardener and a ute is the better fit.
- Private homes.
- Council, highway or parks mowing.

What our clients say
Westfield Chermside
“Every time I visit Chermside I make sure I take the time to wander through the gardens near the outdoor food courts. The care and effort put into creating and maintaining these beautiful scenes is amazing!”

Stu McMullan, Manager, Marrakesh Apartments, Google review
Bell Park Body Corporate
“The Bell Park Body Corporate engaged Advance Plants earlier this year to care-for and maintain our gardens. “Stephan” was appointed the gardener in charge of the area and the community couldn’t be happier. His work ethic is second to none and combined with his existing knowledge and willingness to learn the area is looking great! We highly recommend Advance Plants and their team.”
