Gardening in Inner South

Knut is preparing gardening coverage in Inner South. Requests and bookings open at launch.

Common gardening jobs

Gardening work can cover regular tasks as well as a one-off tidy-up. You can request help with lawns, hedge trimming, pruning, garden cleanup or irrigation. If you have several tasks, list them together so tradies can understand the full scope when preparing a quote. For a cleanup, explain which parts of the garden need attention; for irrigation, describe what you want done. Knut serves Inner South postcodes 3182, 3184, 3186, 3187 and 3188. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to arrange maintenance across many properties.

How to brief a gardening job

Describe what needs doing, where the property is, and when you want the work done. Be clear about the tasks: for example, whether you need lawn work, hedge trimming, pruning, a garden cleanup or irrigation. Add useful details about the areas involved and any specific outcome you have in mind. Photos can help show the condition of the garden or the parts that need attention. You only need to describe the job once through Knut. It sends the request to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service, then compares the quotes it receives.

Costs and Knut’s booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. When you book, you pay Knut one booking fee: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie’s quoted price for the work. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. The job price depends on the quote you receive, so review what the tradie has included before booking. Knut compares the quotes on merit and recommends the one that best fits the job.

Choosing and checking a tradie

Knut matches on the service, area, availability and reviews of the tradie. This trade does not generally need a trade licence, so focus on whether the quote covers the work you described and fits your needs. Check that the tasks and any important details are clear before you book. You can book through Knut, message the tradie and follow progress in one place. The tradie is independent; Knut connects you with them rather than doing the gardening work itself. If the request covers more than one property, make the locations and tasks clear in your brief.

Knut's booking fee

Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
