Can AI keep my mowing round full?

It books regular customers in, texts a reminder before each visit and follows up cancellations. You still decide the round and the days.

Will it price my retaining walls?

No. SAM writes the quote as you talk it through on site, and Emily follows it up once it’s sent. Price, design and any engineering stay with you.

I do maintenance and construction. Can it tell the difference?

Yes. Anna works out what the call is about and takes the details you need. A mow can go straight in the diary while a new deck enquiry goes to a site visit, however you’ve set it up.

Can it take calls after a storm?

Anna answers every call and text 24/7, takes the address and what’s come down, and texts you straight away when it’s urgent.

Starter is Anna for $750 a quarter + GST. Growth is 5 AI staff for $950 a quarter, about $2.08 a day each, with no lock-in.

AI staff for landscapers and gardeners

AI staff for landscapers and gardeners: every call answered, every quote and invoice followed up

There are 36,849 landscaping and gardening businesses in Australia, and about 9 in 10 have fewer than five staff (ABS, June 2025). The mowing round, a hedge job and a retaining wall quote all ring the same phone. Nobody hears it over a whipper snipper.

What your customers ring about

Gardening is a rounds business. Airtasker suggests booking a gardener every week or every other week in the growing season, so a new caller can become a standing job for years. Airtasker also notes same-day, after-hours and weekend bookings can cost more, so those calls are worth answering.

Regular mowing and edging, weekly or fortnightly
Garden tidy-ups and green waste removal
Hedge trimming and light pruning
Retaining walls, paving and driveways
Decks, pergolas, fencing and water features
Urgent same-day, after-hours or weekend jobs
Tree and garden clean-ups after a storm

What your AI staff do for a landscaping or gardening business

Calls answered over the mower
Anna answers calls and texts around the clock, weekends included. She works out whether it’s a mow, a tidy-up or a landscaping job, takes the address and what they’re after, and books or routes it the way you’ve set up.
How this job works
Landscaping enquiries sorted before the site visit
Emily gets back to new enquiries within minutes. She asks what they want built, the rough size, the slope and the access for machinery, then books the site visit. Price and design never come from her.
How this job works
Wall and paving quotes written by voice
Walk the site and talk it through: materials, square metres, drainage, waste. SAM writes the quote. Emily follows up the quotes you’ve sent until you get an answer.
How this job works
A text before every round visit
Confirmation and reminder texts go out before each visit, so the gate is unlocked and the dog is inside. Reschedules and cancelled visits get followed up so the round stays full.
How this job works
A call after the garden makeover
Jenny rings after the job to check how it went and asks for a Google review. She asks whether they’d like regular maintenance on the new garden. Anything that isn’t right goes straight back to you.
How this job works
Spring rebookings
On the Scale plan, Mia rings past customers as the weather warms and the grass takes off. She books the mowing and maintenance rounds back in before your diary fills with someone else’s work.

A fortnightly mow at $80, the low end of Airtasker’s range, is 26 visits and $2,080 a year. That one round customer is more than six months of the Growth plan ($317 a month).

Pesticide training and spraying records
Before-you-dig checks and green waste disposal
Anything that needs an engineer or council approval

NSW: structural landscaping (retaining walls, fencing, paving, pergolas, decks) needs a contractor licence for work over $5,000 incl. GST. Pesticide training is required if your work involves pesticides and must be renewed every 5 years. A business that sells weed or pest spraying needs a ground applicator licence, while garden and grounds maintenance is exempt. QLD: QBCC needs a licence for building work over $3,300.

Growing seasons and repeat work for landscapers and gardeners

Lawns grow faster as temperatures rise, so rounds tighten through spring and summer and stretch out in winter. Airtasker says gardener rates are usually higher in spring and summer with demand. Anna catches the extra calls in the busy months, and Mia rings past customers to rebook when growth picks up.

Summer: mow about every 2 weeks (Lawn.com.au)
Autumn: every 2 to 4 weeks
Winter: every 2 to 5 weeks, a good time to ring about landscaping projects
Spring: mow as needed with growth, the time to rebook last year’s round
Busy periods bring higher quotes and longer waits (ServiceSeeking)
