What changes the price
Five things decide where your lawn lands relative to the $95.00 inc GST starting price:
- Lawn size. A standard Gold Coast block is quick; a corner block, a double block or acreage takes longer.
- Edging. Long paths, kerbs, garden beds and retaining walls all add edging time.
- Access and slope. Steep sites, terraces, narrow gates and lawns that need a smaller mower take longer.
- Condition. An overgrown lawn is quoted as a one-off tidy-up first; once it is under control the regular price applies.
- Frequency. Fortnightly is our best per-visit rate. Monthly or irregular visits mean more growth each time and are priced accordingly.
Why regular fortnightly mowing is the best value
A lawn cut every fortnight through spring and summer never gets away from you. The mow is quick, the clippings are light, the edges only need a tidy and the lawn stays thick because it is never scalped. That is why our fortnightly rate is the cheapest per visit. In winter we stretch the schedule to every three or four weeks, so you are not paying for cuts the lawn does not need.
Prices for rental properties, body corporates and commercial sites
For rental properties we quote the same way and can invoice the property manager directly. For body corporates and commercial sites we quote a fixed monthly price that covers scheduled mowing, edging, hedge trimming and garden bed maintenance, with work-order invoicing to suit the committee or manager. See our body corporate garden maintenance and commercial property maintenance pages.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lawn Mowing Prices
How much does lawn mowing cost on the Gold Coast?
Regular fortnightly lawn mowing with Empire Property Maintenance starts from $95.00 inc GST per visit for a standard suburban block. That covers mowing, edging along paths, driveways and garden beds, whipper snipping and blowing down hard surfaces. Larger blocks, acreage, steep sites and overgrown lawns are quoted on the size and condition of the property.
Is $95.00 inc GST the price for every lawn?
No. $95.00 inc GST is the starting price for a regular fortnightly mow on a standard Gold Coast block with easy access. Bigger lawns, lots of edging, difficult access, slopes and overgrown grass all add to the time on site, so they are priced higher. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Is fortnightly cheaper than a one-off mow?
Yes, per visit. Regular fortnightly customers get our best rate because the lawn is always under control and the visit is quick. A one-off mow, especially an overgrown one, takes longer and is quoted separately.
Does the price change in winter?
Your per-visit price stays the same, but we stretch the schedule to every three or four weeks through winter when growth slows, so you pay for fewer visits over the cooler months.
Do you charge extra to take the clippings?
No. Green waste removal is included in the regular mowing price unless you would prefer us to use your green bin.
How much are lawn treatments?
Lawn grub, army worm, bindii and clover treatments start from $77.00 inc GST per treatment. Treatments are a separate visit from mowing and work best as an ongoing program through the season. Larger lawns are quoted.
How do body corporate and commercial prices work?
Body corporates and commercial sites are quoted as a fixed monthly price covering scheduled mowing, edging, hedge trimming and garden bed maintenance, with work-order invoicing to suit the committee or property manager.
