Garden and Exterior Upkeep
An overgrown garden and a pile of leaves at the gate signal that a home is empty. Our garden and exterior upkeep keeps the outside of your vacant property tidy and cared for, which helps with security and protects the building.
- Available across Chennai
- Can be arranged remotely

About this service
For independent houses and villas, the exterior is what neighbours and passers-by see first. Unchecked weeds, uncollected newspapers and debris piling up at the gate can attract unwanted attention and suggest that no one is looking after the property. Overgrown vegetation can also quietly harbour snakes, rodents and mosquitoes, and spreading roots can damage compound walls and drains over time.
On upkeep visits, we coordinate basic gardening such as weeding, trimming, watering plants in the dry months and clearing fallen leaves. We sweep the entrance, driveway and sit-out areas, remove accumulated flyers and debris, and check the gate, compound wall and exterior lighting. Before the monsoon, we pay particular attention to clearing storm drains and outlets around the plot. Findings such as a broken gate latch or a damaged compound wall are reported with photos, and repairs proceed only once you approve.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as your garden maintenance service?
This is a lighter upkeep service designed to keep a vacant property's exterior tidy. For ongoing landscaping and detailed garden care, see our Garden Maintenance service.
Can you water my plants regularly?
Watering can be included as agreed. In hot, dry months plants may need more frequent attention, which we can discuss with you.
Will you cut down trees?
Major tree cutting is outside routine upkeep and may require permissions. We can coordinate it separately with your approval.
