Highvale sits in the foothills of the D'Aguilar Range above Samford, on the road that climbs towards Mount Glorious. Properties here are rural-residential acreage, often on steep, bushy land with large lawns and gardens around the house. We look after Highvale properties through our premium residential program on scheduled visits.
Highvale properties are beautiful but demanding. Slopes, bush edges, long driveways and fast summer growth mean the grounds need regular, planned attention to stay under control.
Properties in Highvale
Most Highvale properties are acreage of several thousand square metres to several hectares, with homes positioned for the views and gardens built into sloping ground. Retaining walls, terraced beds, long driveways and large areas of bush are common.
Lawns are usually concentrated around the house, with more natural areas beyond that still need occasional slashing, weed control and clearing.

Common maintenance issues in Highvale
What we see most on Highvale acreage:
Steep ground
Sloping lawns and banks need the right equipment and careful mowing to avoid scalping and erosion.
Invasive weeds
Lantana and other weeds spread through bush edges and along driveways.
Storm damage
Fallen branches and debris after summer storms need clearing from lawns and driveways.
Irrigation on slopes
Water runs off sloping gardens quickly unless irrigation is set up with shorter cycles.
Looking after steep acreage
On steep Highvale blocks, the aim is to keep the areas people use neat and safe while holding the rest of the ground together. Healthy lawn and groundcovers stop erosion on slopes, and banks too steep to mow are often better planted with hardy groundcovers than fought with a trimmer every visit.
Irrigation on slopes works best with shorter, repeated cycles so water soaks in instead of running off, and we set controllers up that way as part of the program.
Being further out, Highvale properties benefit most from a consistent schedule. A set visit day means lawns never get too long between cuts, weeds are treated before they spread, and seasonal jobs like hedge reductions and irrigation checks happen on time rather than when someone finds a gap.
