Garden Maintenance Burwood
Burwood holds some of the Inner West’s grandest old houses and some of its tallest new buildings, often on the same street. Greenz Gardenscaping maintains both.

Garden Maintenance Across Burwood’s Two Scales
Burwood garden maintenance covers grand Victorian and Federation houses alongside high-density apartment grounds. Houses run a fortnightly mow, edge, bed and hedge cycle; buildings run documented common-area programs on entry beds, shared lawn and planters.
Burwood is a study in contrast. The conservation streets carry large Victorian and Federation houses with substantial gardens, while the town centre has gone vertical with towers whose landscaping is forecourt, podium and planter.
The heritage gardens are genuine horticultural work — mature hedge runs, specimen planting, deep beds and real lawn that has had a century to settle.
The apartment grounds are the opposite problem: heavily used, highly visible, and belonging to nobody day to day, so they need a documented cycle rather than a responsive one.
Century-Old Gardens and Podium Planters
On the heritage blocks the planting carries the value. Hedge runs and shrub borders that have taken decades respond to moderate, correctly timed pruning and badly to occasional hard cutting.
Podium and forecourt planting is the reverse case — young, exposed, in shallow media, and subject to reflected heat off paving and glass. It needs feeding and watering assessment rather than pruning judgement.
Both fail for want of a cycle rather than want of effort, which is why they are scoped separately but run on the same schedule.

Conservation Frontages and Tower Forecourts
On the conservation streets, deep frontages and hedge lines carry the presentation and reward crisp edges. At the town centre, a building’s forecourt does that job for hundreds of people a day.
Volume from a full common-area cycle exceeds what kerbside collection across the Burwood Council area takes, and towers have nowhere to stage it, so everything leaves with us on the day.
Hardy planting that handles reflected heat and foot traffic is the practical choice for forecourts, where nothing gets attention between scheduled visits.
Heritage Houses, Towers and Townhouses
Heritage houses run fortnightly with mature hedging and specimen work scheduled separately by species.
Apartment towers are forecourt and planter led, where media condition and feeding matter more than trimming.
Townhouse complexes need a common-area program covering entry beds, shared lawn and boundary planting with reporting.
New planting schemes, turf and hard landscaping are landscaping rather than maintenance.
Why Burwood Properties Use Greenz
Serving both ends of this suburb takes horticultural judgement for the old gardens and documented reliability for the new buildings. We do both rather than specialising in one.
Greenz Gardenscaping has operated since 2014 with qualified horticulturists, and already maintains strata and commercial properties across Sydney.
Full green waste removal is included, we are public liability insured, and quotes are written after a site walk with a fixed itemised scope.
What our Clients Say
Common Questions Before You Call
What Burwood homeowners, owners corporations and building managers ask most often.
How do you approach hedges that are a century old?
Moderate, correctly timed pruning on a species cycle, two to four times a year with structural work in late winter. Hard cutting on planting that age opens it up and can take several seasons to close.
Do you maintain tower forecourts and podium planting?
Yes. It is young planting in shallow media under reflected heat, so it needs feeding and watering assessment more than pruning, and a cycle that does not lapse.
Do you provide reporting?
Yes, after each visit on common property, which is what owners corporations and managers need to approve the spend.
How often should a heritage garden be serviced?
Fortnightly for lawn and beds, with hedging and specimen work scheduled separately by species and season.
Where does the green waste go?
It leaves the same day. Towers have nowhere to stage it and the volumes exceed kerbside collection.
Are you insured for common property?
Yes, public liability insured, covering forecourts, shared entries and access ways.
Can you handle a townhouse complex?
Yes, on a scheduled common-area program covering entry beds, shared lawn and boundary planting.
What is landscaping rather than maintenance?
New planting schemes, turf replacement and hard landscaping. Maintenance keeps what is there in good order.
