Why Singapore Lawns Need Regular Grass Cutting
The climatic conditions in Singapore are unfriendly to your lawn. The hot temperatures, rainfall, and an all-year growing period mean that the grass does not take any breaks. When you ignore grass cutting for one whole month, you do not just get long grass. You also expose your yard to thatch buildup, weed infestation, mosquito breeding sites, and patches of yellow grass resulting from the inability of the lower parts of the grass to receive enough sunlight.
The solution? Cut your grass regularly, according to the right procedures and using proper equipment. We have been offering grass cutting services in Singapore landed houses, condominiums, and other commercial premises since 2010. In most cases, our clients opt to go with a fortnightly fixed grass cutting service package and need not bother about their lawns anymore.
For larger commercial properties, our grass cutting service forms part of a wider commercial landscape maintenance contract, and for condo MCSTs we run it under a dedicated condo landscape maintenance plan.
Our Grass Cutting and Lawn Care Services
Pick what your lawn needs. Most clients start with cutting and edging, then add the rest once they see the difference.
Grass Cutting
Mowing your lawn to the correct height for your grass type. Cow grass at 30 to 40mm, pearl grass at 15 to 25mm. We don’t scalp the lawn — that’s how the grass gets stressed and weeds move in.
Edging and Borders
Clean lines along driveways, paths, fences and flower beds. The single thing that makes a cut lawn look professional rather than just trimmed. Included in every visit as standard.
Lawn Aeration
Core aeration to break up compacted soil, improve water penetration and let the roots breathe. Recommended once or twice a year for high-traffic lawns.
Lawn Aeration
Core aeration to break up compacted soil, improve water penetration and let the roots breathe. Recommended once or twice a year for high-traffic lawns.
Overseeding
Seeding into existing turf to fill in patches and thicken the lawn without re-laying turf. Best paired with aeration and top-dressing for proper recovery.
Top-Dressing
A thin layer of fine soil mix spread across the lawn to level out dips, encourage new growth and improve soil structure. Done after aeration for the best result.
Fertilising
Programme tuned to Singapore climate and your grass type. Slow-release granular for the bulk of the year, foliar feeds when the lawn needs a faster pickup. We don’t overfeed.
Pest and Disease Control
Identifying and treating common Singapore lawn problems including grub damage, fungal disease, ant infestations and mole crickets. Early diagnosis saves the lawn and saves you money.
Grass Clearing (Overgrown Lawns)
Heavy clearing for lawns over 30cm, vacant lots, or properties left unattended for months. Different equipment, different waste handling. Once cleared, we’ll set up a regular schedule so it doesn’t happen again.
How Our Grass Cutting Service Works
1 Tell us about your lawn
Call, WhatsApp or fill the quote form. Send a photo of your lawn if you can — it helps us scope quickly. We’ll reply with a quote the same working day for residential, within 2 days for commercial.
2 Schedule your first visit
Most residential first visits are scheduled within 3 to 5 working days. For commercial sites we usually start within 2 weeks of contract sign. We work weekday mornings and Saturdays.
3 We cut, edge and tidy up
Our team arrives in branded uniform with all equipment. Mowers, brush cutters, edgers, blowers, waste bags. We cut to the right height for your grass, edge the lines, trim around obstacles, blow the hard surfaces clean and bag the clippings.
4 Done. Next visit booked.
For contract clients we book the next visit before we leave. You’ll get a WhatsApp confirmation each time. For one-off clients, we’ll let you know roughly when the lawn will need cutting again based on what we saw.

Grass Cutting Pricing in Singapore
Real prices, not “starting from” placeholders. Final pricing depends on lawn size, condition and access — confirmed before we start.
Grass clearing for overgrown properties: Quoted per site visit. Typically $600 to $1500 depending on grass height, area and disposal volume. Horticulture waste disposal handled under the same booking.
Singapore Grass Types — How We Cut Each One
Different grasses need different treatment. Here’s what we typically see in Singapore and how we handle each.
| Grass Type | Where You’ll Find It | Recommended Cut Height | Cutting Frequency |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cow Grass (Axonopus compressus) | Most common. Landed homes, parks, public areas. | 30 to 40mm | Every 2 to 3 weeks |
| Pearl Grass (Zoysia tenuifolia) | Premium landed lawns, hotel grounds, manicured estates. | 15 to 25mm | Every 2 weeks |
| Carpet Grass | HDB common areas, low-budget commercial sites. | 30 to 40mm | Every 2 to 3 weeks |
| Bermuda Grass | Sports fields, premium landed homes. | 20 to 30mm | Every 1 to 2 weeks |
| Buffalo Grass | Shaded landed lawns, partial-sun gardens. | 40 to 50mm | Every 2 to 3 weeks |
Not sure what grass you have? We’ll tell you on the first visit. If your lawn is patchy or struggling, our turfing and grass planting service handles re-laying with the right grass type for your conditions.
