Professional Grass Cutting & Lawn Mowing Services in East Kent
Reliable, routine lawn mowing and one-off overgrown garden clearances across East Kent — commercial-grade equipment, owner accountability, and a pristine finish every time.
Maintaining a healthy, vibrant lawn requires consistent care, precise timing, and the right mechanical equipment. At Kent Mowing, owner Ian Tullet provides a professional grass cutting and lawn mowing service tailored to the specific environmental conditions of East Kent — from the salt-laden coastal air of Broadstairs and Ramsgate to the heavy clay soils of the Canterbury basin and the chalky subsoil of the Kent Downs. Whether your garden is compact or sprawling, coastal or rural, we adapt our cutting heights, scheduling, and techniques to promote dense, resilient turf that looks exceptional all season.
We exclusively use professional-grade, regularly serviced mowing equipment — ensuring a clean, sharp cut that prevents the frayed, yellowing tips and disease susceptibility caused by blunt domestic mowers. And unlike large franchise operations, every Kent Mowing visit is personally managed by Ian, meaning you get consistent quality and direct accountability on every single job.
Expert Lawn Care Tailored to Your Property Size
Whether you own a compact enclosed courtyard in Deal's historic centre or a multi-acre rural paddock on the outskirts of Canterbury, Kent Mowing scales its approach to suit. There is no one-size-fits-all mowing schedule — we assess your lawn's growth rate, soil conditions, and seasonal stage before recommending the right maintenance programme for your plot.
Regular Grass Cutting Schedules — Weekly & Fortnightly
We do not simply run a mower over the grass and depart. Every scheduled visit includes meticulous edge strimming along pathways, borders, and fences; hard surfaces blown clear of clippings and debris; and a final presentation check before we leave. Whether you need a weekly visit through the spring and summer growing season or a fortnightly programme, we work around your calendar. Ian personally oversees every schedule, ensuring total punctuality and reliability — the same standard on visit one as on visit one hundred.
Fast Overgrown Lawn Clearance & Garden Rescues
Not every job is about routine maintenance. If your lawn has become severely overgrown — after a winter period, a house move, or a stretch of absence — Kent Mowing provides a fast, effective one-off clearance cut. Our commercial-grade machinery safely reduces the grass height in controlled stages, restoring even badly neglected plots to a healthy, manageable state. We handle the heavy lifting and remove all green waste, leaving the site immaculate. No job is too overgrown.
Stadium-Quality Finishes: Edge Strimming & Lawn Striping
For clients who want more than a basic cut, Kent Mowing delivers a premium aesthetic finish. Using professional heavy rear-rollers, we create crisp, alternating light and dark stripes — the classic British lawn look — on residential and estate lawns across the county. Lawn striping is not merely decorative; it reduces compaction, improves airflow between blades, and lowers the risk of fungal disease. If you want a finish that genuinely impresses, ask about our lawn striping service.
Commercial-Grade Equipment for a Superior Cut
The quality of your lawn cut is directly determined by the quality of the machinery used. Kent Mowing invests in professional-grade equipment maintained to commercial standards — the same kit used by stadium groundskeepers and estate managers, not the domestic push-mowers that many local gardeners rely on.
Commercial Ride-On Mowers
Heavy-duty ride-on mowers for large residential plots, paddocks, and commercial estates. Fast, efficient, and capable of managing terrain that defeats domestic equipment.
Viking Mulching Mowers
Precision mulching mowers that return finely chopped clippings to the soil as natural fertiliser — promoting stronger root systems and a lusher lawn over time.
Professional Heavy Rollers
The essential tool for classic British lawn striping. Our heavy rear-rollers bend the grass blades to create sharp, long-lasting stripe patterns for a stadium-quality finish.
Zero Hassle — Full Green Waste Removal
One of the most common frustrations with lawn mowing services is being left with bags of clippings to deal with yourself. Kent Mowing removes all green waste as standard — collected, loaded, and responsibly disposed of on every visit. Pathways and patios are blown clear of debris before we leave. You receive a finished, immaculate garden, not just a shorter one. Where mulching is preferred, we can return clippings to the soil instead — simply let Ian know your preference when booking.
Serving Sandwich, Deal, Canterbury & The Kent Coast
Operating from our Sandwich depot (CT13 9EU), Kent Mowing covers the full breadth of East Kent. From the coastal gardens of Broadstairs, Ramsgate, and Margate — where salt air and sandy soils demand specific care — to the larger rural plots around Canterbury, Dover, and Folkestone. We also serve Whitstable, Herne Bay, and the villages of the Kent Downs, including Walmer, Ash, Finglesham, and Pegwell Bay. If you are in East Kent and need a reliable, professional lawn mowing service, we cover your area.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Kent Lawn Mowing Service
How often should my grass be cut in Kent?
During the peak growing season in spring and early summer (March to June), weekly cutting is strongly recommended to prevent removing more than one-third of the blade at a time, which is critical for turf health. Through drier summer months, fortnightly visits are typically sufficient. We assess your lawn on each visit and adjust the schedule accordingly.
How much does grass cutting cost in East Kent?
Because every garden is different, we provide bespoke quotes based on plot size, grass condition, and access. Our rates are highly competitive against the national average, with no hidden fees for edge strimming or green waste removal — those are included as standard. Contact Ian for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your property.
Do you remove the grass clippings and green waste?
Yes, always. Every visit includes the full collection, removal, and responsible disposal of all green waste. We also use Viking mulching mowers where appropriate, which return vital nutrients to the soil rather than removing them — great for long-term lawn health. Just let us know your preference.
Can you cut wet or overgrown grass?
Yes. Our commercial-grade ride-on mowers and professional strimmers handle heavily overgrown, wet, or neglected grass that domestic mowers simply cannot manage. For severely overgrown plots, we reduce the height safely in stages to avoid shocking the turf, restoring it to a manageable, healthy state.
Are you fully insured for residential and commercial work?
Yes, Kent Mowing carries full public liability insurance, providing complete peace of mind whether we are working on a private residential garden or a large commercial grounds contract. Documentation is available on request.
Do I need to be home when you cut the grass?
Not at all. Providing we have agreed, secure access to the garden, we complete the work and ensure all gates are properly locked on departure. Many of our regular customers are out when we visit. Ian will always confirm the appointment in advance.
