 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service, would book again and would definitely recommend. They communicated quickly at all stages, were particularly polite and efficient when they came to my house for the initial brief, came on time, and did an excellent job at my garden maintenance tasks. This is the first time I've paid another company to do work on my garden and I'm happy I did said. Planning to book again for garden and some house maintenance tasks.

About Us

We're a small gardening and home maintenance business located here in Canterbury, New Zealand.

We’re passionate about helping out our local clients and pride ourselves on being hard-working and efficient!

After working in the landscape scene for some time, we decided to venture out and begin our own business, which has been an awesome journey so far.

We treat every project as unique and cater it to what it is that you want as a client. We aim to build strong and lasting relationships with our clients. Your input and constant communication over the duration of the project is at the heart of what we do.

What Our Customers Say

"I’ve had Stephen & his crew help me with outside jobs multiple times and each time they have thoroughly impressed me. Punctual, friendly and very hardworking! 10/10"

Tristan - Christchurch, Canterbury

"Stephen and the crew know how to get a lot done in a short time. Great combination of experience and energy - highly recommended for taming neglected foliage and restoring a clean and well-maintained look. Would gladly have them do more around our property."

Dean - Christchurch, Canterbury

I’m thrilled with Fresh Start. The team made themselves available urgently, worked super hard, and when the job proved bigger than either of us expected, they tackled it heroically still before the deadline. If you are looking for hard working, reliable, transparent, genuine and friendly gardeners, you have found them.
