How Much Does Jim’s Mowing Cost?
Jim’s Mowing franchisees set their own prices and quote per job, not per hour in most cases. Pricing depends on your property size, the current condition of the lawn, the services needed, and your location.
Factors that affect the final price: lawn size, how overgrown it is at the first visit, terrain and access, whether clippings need to be removed, and how often you book. Regular customers pay less per visit than one-off bookings because an established lawn is quicker to maintain.
Call 131 546 or submit a request and let your local franchisee assess the job. The quote is free and there is no obligation to book.

Jim’s Mowing FAQ
The questions customers ask most often before booking. If yours isn’t here, call 131 546 and our team will answer it directly.
Booking & Pricing
How much does Jim’s Mowing cost?
Pricing varies based on lawn size, its current condition, services needed, and location. A small suburban lawn typically falls in the $40 to $60 range per visit. A medium lawn is generally $60 to $100. Larger properties and acreage are quoted individually. Call 131 546 or request a quote and let your local franchisee assess the job. The quote is free with no obligation to book.
Do Jim’s Mowing franchisees set their own prices?
Yes. Jim’s Mowing franchisees are independently owned and operated. They set their own prices and quote per job based on what they see at your property. They do not charge a fixed hourly rate in most cases. Regular customers generally receive better pricing than one-off bookings because an established lawn is quicker to maintain.
Can I book a one-off job or do I need a regular contract?
Both options are available. There is no requirement to set up a regular contract. You can book Jim’s Mowing for a single clean-up, an overgrown property clear-out, or a one-off garden tidy. If you decide to set up a regular schedule after that, you arrange it directly with your franchisee.
How quickly can I get a franchisee to my property?
Response time depends on availability in your area and current demand. Many franchisees quote and complete jobs within a few days. Call 131 546 to check availability. Demand is highest in spring and summer. In most metro areas the call centre connects you with a franchisee quickly.
Why does the first visit cost more?
If a lawn has not been maintained recently, the first visit takes longer because there is more material to cut and remove. Once the lawn is on a regular schedule, each visit is faster and easier. Most franchisees price the first visit accordingly and reduce the per-visit rate for ongoing customers. Discuss this with your franchisee when they quote.
Services
Does Jim’s Mowing do more than just mowing?
Yes, and this surprises a lot of customers. Most Jim’s Mowing franchisees offer hedge trimming and pruning, gardening, gutter cleaning, rubbish removal, garden landscaping, lawn aeration, grass slashing, and acreage mowing. Ask your franchisee what they cover in your area when you request a quote.
Do Jim’s Mowing franchisees remove grass clippings?
Most Jim’s Mowing franchisees remove clippings as part of the service. Confirm with your franchisee when they quote. Clipping removal is one of the main reasons customers choose a professional service over doing it themselves, particularly for regular maintenance.
Does Jim’s Mowing service commercial properties?
Yes. Jim’s Mowing franchisees take on commercial contracts including strata complexes, body corporate, retail parks, schools and ongoing site maintenance. Call 131 546 and ask about commercial work, or request a quote online and specify your requirements.
Do Jim’s Mowing franchisees bring their own equipment?
Yes. All franchisees supply their own professional-grade mowers, trimmers, blowers and related equipment. You do not need to provide anything. Franchisees also carry their own safety equipment as required under Jim’s Group standards.
Trust & Guarantee
Are Jim’s Mowing franchisees insured and police checked?
Yes. All Jim’s Mowing franchisees carry full public liability insurance and are police checked before they begin operating. Jim’s Group enforces these requirements across all franchisees. Every job is also backed by the Jim’s Work Guarantee.
What happens if I’m not happy with the job?
Contact Jim’s Group on 131 546. The Jim’s Work Guarantee applies to all services and Jim’s Group will arrange for the issue to be resolved. There is a franchisor behind every franchisee who is accountable for the outcome. This is one of the primary reasons to use Jim’s over an independent contractor.
What times does Jim’s Mowing operate?
The Jim’s Group call centre operates Monday to Friday 7am to 8pm and Saturday to Sunday 8am to 4pm AEST. Individual franchisees set their own working hours. Most operate standard business hours during the week with some Saturday availability. Discuss timing with your franchisee after they quote.
Lawn Care
How often should I have my lawn mowed?
During the growing season (spring and summer), most Australian lawns need mowing every 2 to 4 weeks. In autumn and winter, the interval extends to 4 to 6 weeks or longer depending on your grass type and rainfall. Regular mowing also reduces the per-visit cost. Your franchisee can advise on the right frequency for your specific lawn.
What is the best time of year to book a garden clean-up?
Spring is the most popular time. Lawns come out of winter dormancy and start growing fast, so getting on top of it early prevents the property from becoming overgrown by summer. Jim’s Mowing operates year-round. Autumn is a good time for aeration, dethatching and fertilising to prepare the lawn for winter.
How do I find a Jim’s Mowing franchisee near me?
