Owners Corporation & Strata Garden Maintenance in Melbourne

Reliable grounds care for apartment blocks, townhouse complexes and body corporate properties. One owner-operator, a fixed schedule, and a report after every visit.

  • Certificate of currency supplied with every quote

Built for OC Managers

Common Property That Looks After Itself

Owners corporation managers have enough on their plate without chasing a gardener who didn’t turn up. I run Great Dane Mowing personally, so the person who quotes your site is the person who maintains it.

I arrive on the agreed day, work through the scope, and send you photos when I’m done. If something needs the committee’s attention, like a damaged fence, a blocked drain or a dead tree, you’ll hear about it the same day. I’m police checked and fully insured, and I’m happy to work directly with self-managed owners corporations as well as OC managers.

Not sure what to ask for in a quote? My checklist for choosing an owners corporation grounds contractor covers insurance, scope, pricing and reporting. I look after complexes across Ascot Vale, Essendon, Flemington and Moonee Ponds, and nearby suburbs.

Why Choose Me

Why Choose Great Dane Mowing For Your Owners Corporation & Strata?

Reliable Scheduling

I turn up when I say I will. Choose a fortnightly or monthly schedule that fits your lifestyle.

Sharp Equipment

I keep my blades sharp and my gear well maintained, so you get a clean cut that does not tear the grass.

Owner-Operated and Local

I live and work in Ascot Vale, so I know Melbourne's lawns, the local weeds and what each season brings.

Clean Finish

I do not leave clippings on your garden beds or paths. Every job ends with a sweep and blow-down.

Transparent Pricing

No hidden surprises or vague estimates. I provide a clear, fixed-price quote after an onsite visit, before any work begins.

Fully Insured & Safe

Your property is in safe hands. My $10 million public liability insurance and careful work practices protect you and your home.

Dane came to our rescue and did an absolutely incredible job tidying up our front yard. He went above and beyond, was lovely to chat with, and even taught me some things about caring for the plants we have out there! Will definitely be our go-to business for all things gardening. Thank you so much, Dane!

Dane was recommended to me by a neighbour who had used him. My regular mowing guy had recently retired so I thought I would give him a go. He turned up exactly on time and did a fantastic job, all the little things were taken care of that sometimes get missed. We will definitely be using him on a regular basis from now on as our mowing and garden person. Very very happy with his service.

Sadly, I had let my backyard turn into a jungle after having it in tip top shape for my son’s wedding in December. (Great) Dane was a delight to speak to about what needed to be done and I believe that his pricing was very competitive especially with the amount of work that needed to be done to get the back yard looking like a lawn again. Thanks for your hard work Dane!

We had Great Dane mowing come onboard while we trying to sell our house. Initially it was just for the garden maintenance and mowing which was spot on. After deciding not to sell we had Dane come through and help with some landscaping works and upgrades which are starting to look amazing coming into spring. *still keep him around for the on going maintenance!

I needed an experienced gardener quickly and Dane organised his time to fit in with my tight schedule and completed such a very professional job. Nothing was an issue for him and he was so generous with his time. I couldn’t be happier with his work

We definitely recommend Dane's mowing and garden service for the excellent and friendly service, on time at a good price. We sent him a photo and requested a quote and a time. Dane turned up on when he said he would, did a great job getting a small area of lawn back in shape, without cutting hard and stressing it. He trimmed edges neatly around stepping stones, cleaned up the paving, and left the place neat and tidy.

Completely transformed our backyard! Our backyard was a literal jungle. We were embarrassed to have visitors over. Dane transformed it in an afternoon to a neat, visitor-worthy backyard. And did it with a big smile on his face the whole time. I can't recommend him enough. 5-stars

Didn’t know how to get on top of my heavily overgrown lawn, then stumbled across Great Dane Mowing. He was out the very next day and did an outstanding job. Great person and complete transparency around the scope of work and costs. Highly recommend!

Really happy with the mowing service, the lawn looks great and the attention to detail is meticulous! Additionally, the communication was prompt, professional and very easy and Dane was out to mow the lawn the day after my initial enquiry. Highly recommend!

Answers To Your Questions

Owners Corporation FAQs

Have a different question? Head over to our Contact Us page or call us directly on 0408 536 228 for a chat.

Do you work with OC managers or directly with committees?

Both. Most of my strata work comes through owners corporation managers, but I’m happy to quote a self-managed owners corporation directly.

Can you provide a certificate of currency and safety documentation?

Yes. I send a current public liability certificate of currency with every quote, and safe work method statements on request.

How is pricing worked out?

I inspect the site, agree the scope with you, and quote a fixed rate per visit or per month. The invoice matches the quote every time.

What happens if a visit is rained out?

I reschedule within the same week and let you know once it’s done.

Do you also look after private courtyards?

Common property is covered under the owners corporation’s agreement. Individual owners can book me separately for their own courtyard or garden.
