What our Prince Henry Heights customers say

★★★★★

TopLawn did a fabulous job mowing and trimming. Our lawn is very neat and tidy now. Tom was great to deal with and I highly recommend James and his team.

Why us here

Local knowledge, local crew

Elevated, sloping blocks leave you with awkward, half-mown edges if the crew only has one mower. We run a combination, the zero-turn where it's safe and open and push mowers for the tighter and steeper corners, so the whole lawn ends up even, top to bottom.

What your lawn is telling you

Signs it needs more than a mow

The signature sign here is a hard, dry patch on the sunny slope that won't absorb water no matter how much you give it: water-repellent soil, fixed with a wetting agent and aeration. Spongy turf means thatch, ready to scarify, and pale growth means it's time to feed. Golden patches that lift like carpet in summer can be lawn grubs: for lawns on one of our programs, we arrange treatment through our licensed pest partner.

Common questions

Local lawn questions

  • Can you mow a steep block safely and evenly? Yes — we use the right mower for each section so there are no half-done corners.
  • Dry patches on the sunny side won't take water — what helps? That's hydrophobic soil; a wetting agent plus aeration fixes it.
  • One-off or ongoing? Both.

The soil under your lawn

Red Ferrosol (free-draining)

Red Ferrosol on basalt

Government soil mapping shows Prince Henry Heights on basalt with red Ferrosols, the same free-draining red soil as the neighbouring eastern suburbs. On elevated, sun-exposed slopes that free drainage means the surface dries out fast, and sloped, north-facing sections are usually the first to turn water-repellent, so a wetting agent and aeration help keep moisture in the root zone. Holding the taller recommended cut on slopes leaves more leaf to shade the soil. Kikuyu, buffalo and couch are the common grasses, and couch and kikuyu slow and colour off after winter frosts. Winter grass and bindii are the cool-season weeds to stay ahead of.

Prince Henry Heights is a small residential suburb about 5 km east-north-east of the Toowoomba CBD, surrounded by Jubilee Park and Redwood Park, two large bushland reserves along Toowoomba's eastern edge, with Mount Lofty to the west and East Toowoomba to the south-west. It's named for Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, Governor-General of Australia from 1945 to 1947, though its boundary road was already called Prince Henry Drive before then. Jubilee Park alone covers 313 hectares of bushland, with walking and mountain-bike trails along the escarpment. There are no schools in the suburb; the nearest primary is Toowoomba East State School.
