Pruning


Hi we are Matthew & Melissa Tovgaard, your local Garden Maintenance & Lawn Mowing franchisees in Rangiora .

I am honest, reliable and can offer most services you will require around you home.

Before beginning my V.I.P. Lawns & Gardens franchise I was in the live events space as a Technical Director. I chose to join V.I.P. as they are a great bunch of people who are very helpful. I wanted to be outside doing something I enjoyed, be my own boss and be part of a larger group.

As a V.I.P. Home Services' Franchisee, I have a large highly-respected organization backing me, which gives customers complete peace of mind. I am trained, carry full insurance coverage and subscribe to a market leading Worksafe safety program. I am also security cleared and clearly identified with eye-catching V.I.P. signage, uniform, and stationery. In the unlikely event, there is something you are unhappy with, you can rest secure in the knowledge there is a reputable business behind me to ensure you receive 100% satisfaction.

And for all that, my pricing is very competitive and offers fantastic value for money.
