Precision Trimming

Precision Trimming

Precision trimming on hedges, shrubs and topiary ensures a uniform appearance, promoting healthy growth and enhancing the overall structure of the plants. Precision trimming provides long-lasting shape and encourages dense foliage, making it ideal for formal gardens and decorative features. When done correctly, precision trimming not only improves the visual appeal of your garden but also contributes to the health and vitality of your greenery.

Pruning and Shaping

Pruning and Shaping

Pruning and shaping are essential gardening practices that promote healthy growth and enhance the appearance of plants, particularly roses, citrus, and fruit trees. Regular pruning removes dead or diseased branches, encourages airflow, and ensures better fruit production in trees like citrus and apples. Shaping, on the other hand, helps maintain a balanced structure, supporting strong growth while enhancing the plant’s aesthetic appeal. Roses benefit from precise pruning to encourage abundant blooms, while citrus and fruit trees thrive with seasonal pruning to boost fruit yield and longevity.

Planting and Mulching

Planting and Mulching

Proper planting techniques involve selecting the right location, preparing the soil, and ensuring adequate spacing for optimal growth. Once plants are in the ground, mulching adds a protective layer of organic or inorganic material around the base of plants. This layer helps suppress weeds, retain soil moisture, and regulate soil temperature, creating a healthier environment for roots to thrive.

A trusted landscaping team that goes beyond just delivering a service

At Groundcover Landscaping, we’re a team that brings a genuine passion for customer service and quality to every project, from inception to completion.

We understand the frustration of working with companies that under-deliver or over-promise. That's why we pride ourselves on being good people who do great work.

After working in several landscaping firms in Waikato and overseas, we noticed a gap in the local market.

There was a lack of landscaping companies that genuinely cared for their customers' needs, delivered top-tier work, and kept their promises.

We knew there had to be a better way, so we decided to create it.
