State Government Facilities

At Waratah, we’re proud to support State Government departments and agencies across New South Wales. From schools, hospitals and health facilities to transport, parks and public precincts, we work closely and consultatively with each of our government clients, combining our wide-ranging horticultural expertise with clear communication and a strong quality focus.

Our dedicated teams of well-presented, trained, and supervised staff maintain government assets across NSW, supported by our structured performance reporting that drives the continuous improvement of our services and outcomes. We pride ourselves on delivering a consistently high quality of work for every site we proudly care for.

Landscape Maintenance & Construction

Our horticulturists, greenkeepers, carpenters and parks and gardens staff work hard to maintain schools, hospitals, transport infrastructure, and other government properties. From turf care and garden maintenance to designing and constructing common areas, we ensure every space is well-presented, functional, and compliant.

Tree Planting and Establishment

Waratah supports government tree planting initiatives by selecting and installing suitable trees / plants and managing their care through watering, fertilising, and ongoing assessment to ensure strong establishment and long-term growth.

School and Sports Field and Turf Maintenance

Our greenkeepers are experienced in maintaining high-traffic sports fields, school playing areas, and public lawns. Services include mowing, fertilising, coring, top dressing, irrigation system management, and general turf care to ensure safe and usable surfaces throughout the year.

Arboriculture Services

Our Level 5 Arborists assess existing and mature trees to ensure the safety and enjoyment of the public. We deliver dead wooding, pruning, mulching, and stump grinding, with full tree removal services where required, all in line with the highest safety standards.

Vegetation Management and Fire Mitigation

We deliver tailored vegetation management programs, including perimeter clearing, mechanical slashing, and fire mitigation works to protect state assets and surrounding communities.

Weed Control Programs

Our targeted weed management services include boom spraying, spot treatments, and knockdown spraying for fence lines, boundary zones, and open areas. Night spraying using electric UTVs is available for sensitive sites or operational areas.

Irrigation Services

We provide full-service irrigation management, including system installation, audits, repairs, seasonal adjustments, and ongoing maintenance to support plant health and water efficiency.

Cleaning Services

We provide cleaning services for communal or shared areas within local council spaces and facilities including routine site cleans, emergency and responsive cleaning, post incident and high-standard hygiene cleans.

Proud to care for your property

At Waratah we value relationships, collaboration, and quality. We treat every property we work on as if it were our own and we’re proud to care for the communities in which we operate.

WGS has grown from a Sydney lawn mowing run in 1997 to maintaining hundreds of sites across Greater Sydney today. Our local roots run deep, and shape how we work, source and grow.

We continue prioritising local, whether sourcing plants and materials, investing in equipment, or growing our team to support new contracts. This commitment strengthens our service delivery and our connection to the communities we work in.

Beyond the work we do on the ground, we are committed to creating positive impact more broadly — for our people, our partners and our communities. That’s why we’ve formalised our approach through our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) commitments and our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), alongside our Capability Statement. These documents demonstrate the good work WGS is doing while caring for your properties, and the responsibility we take in shaping a sustainable, inclusive future.

At WGS, we deliver comprehensive, end-to-end landscape maintenance services tailored to the operational needs of large-scale sites and complex environments from Newcastle down to Ulladulla, and from the Sydney CBD to the Blue Mountains and beyond. Our clients include government departments, local councils, commercial property managers, and organisations overseeing housing estates, sporting facilities, aged care, medical and public open spaces.

With experienced operations managers, qualified horticultural teams, and a fleet of specialist machinery, we maintain a wide range of landscapes efficiently, safely, and to the highest standards.
