Our Story: Built on Reliability and Hard Work
Ratten & Rowe started with a pretty simple idea — provide a reliable lawn mowing service and do the job properly.
After seeing how often homeowners and property managers were dealing with contractors who didn’t show up, rushed through jobs or were difficult to get hold of, we knew there was room to do things differently. For us, it comes down to being reliable, communicating clearly and taking pride in the work we do. We’d rather do a job properly and build a long-term relationship with a customer than rush through as many properties as possible.
That’s especially important with our regular maintenance mowing. We get to know the property, keep on top of the lawn throughout the year and make sure it’s left neat and tidy after every visit.
Today, Ratten & Rowe looks after properties across Melbourne’s Northern Suburbs with a simple approach that hasn’t changed — turn up when we say we will, do quality work and leave the place looking better than when we arrived.
Our Mission
Our purpose is simple: to provide dependable, premium-quality maintenance lawn mowing that helps our clients reclaim their free time and enjoy beautiful, healthy outdoor spaces.
We are committed to elevating the standard of customer service in the property maintenance industry. By combining hard work, clear communication, and professional expertise, we aim to support our local communities and make Melbourne's Northern Suburbs a greener, more beautiful place to live and work.
