Tylor and his team cleaned up our park better than expected. Great communication, efficient, friendly and thorough. Will recommend them over and over again! Thanks, Tylor and team!

The first of three garden services that has actually done a thorough and professional service, constantly kept me informed of the changing times and dates due to difficulties with the taxi strike. My garden and pavement has never looked so neat and tidy! Friendly, kind and informative owners, please give them a try!

Absolute pleasure having these guys work on our property. Had grass put in, palm tree and a few others removed, new paving done. Very pleased with outcome and the work put in.

The job

What is weed spraying?

Weed spraying means treating weeds with weed killer instead of pulling them out one by one. It suits the places where weeding by hand is slow work: the cracks between paving slabs, gravel paths and driveways, and the edges of beds.

In Tylor's words: "The weed killer is only sprayed on hot days without wind to ensure it dries quickly.

If you'd like the rest of the garden looked after too, a regular garden service covers mowing, edging and flower bed cleaning, weekly, fortnightly or monthly.

The problem

Where weeds cause the most trouble

Weeds come up wherever there's a gap. These are the usual spots.

01

Between paving slabs

Weeds in the joints of a driveway, path or patio make even clean paving look neglected.

02

Gravel and pebbles

Gravel paths and pebble beds are slow to weed by hand, one stone at a time.

03

Beds and borders

Weeds in flower beds crowd out what you've planted.

Northern suburbs weeds

Weed spraying in Cape Town's windy northern suburbs

The wind decides the day

In the northern suburbs the south-easter sweeps across from False Bay to Blouberg, which is why Table View is a well-known kitesurfing spot. Top Trimmers only sprays weed killer on hot days without wind, so your spraying day depends on the weather.
