Full Landscape Projects in South East Queensland

Depends on scope. A focused front yard or small backyard transformation typically takes 2–4 weeks. Full backyard builds with earthworks, retaining walls, paving, turf and planting usually take 4–10 weeks. Large acreage projects can run 3–6 months. We provide a project timeline at the quoting stage.

Yes. We identify any approval requirements during the design phase and coordinate the process — development applications, pool fencing certifications, engineering certifications for retaining walls over 1m, and any easement checks.

Yes. We design the full project upfront so each stage connects logically — no wasted work, no having to redo earlier stages. You build what budget allows now, and pick up the next stage when ready.

We handle design in-house for most residential projects. For complex projects requiring formal landscape architecture sign-off, we work with registered landscape architects as needed.

We structure payments to project milestones — typically a deposit on commencement, progress payments at defined build milestones, and a final payment on practical completion and your sign-off.

We provide a 30-day workmanship warranty on all labour, and pass through manufacturer warranties on all materials and products installed. Structural elements (retaining walls, decks, concrete) carry extended warranties.

Yes. We regularly coordinate with pool builders, home builders and other trades. We handle our scope, coordinate around their schedule, and ensure a seamless handover between stages.

Any scope changes are documented in a written variation before work proceeds. No surprises — you know exactly what any change will cost before we act on it.

Yes. We handle projects across SE QLD including outer ring suburbs, Scenic Rim, Lockyer Valley and other regional areas. Travel charges may apply beyond the immediate metro area — we'll advise at the quote stage.

Book a free onsite inspection. We'll walk the site, discuss your vision and give you honest budget bands on the spot — no fluff, no inflated estimates. You'll have a clear picture of cost before you commit to anything.

Yes — for larger landscaping projects we offer a landscape design consultation where we discuss your goals, style preferences, budget, and maintenance expectations before any work begins. We provide concept plans and staged project options so you know exactly what you're getting. For smaller jobs like turf installation or garden maintenance, detailed design isn't necessary and we'll discuss your preferences on-site.

In Queensland's climate, we most commonly install Sir Walter Buffalo (excellent shade tolerance, soft underfoot), Zoysia (fine leaf, great for high-traffic areas), Kikuyu (fast growing, drought tolerant, suits sunny yards), and Couch (excellent for sports and active families). The best choice depends on your sun exposure, soil type, drainage, and intended use. We'll recommend the right variety during your consultation.

New turf needs to be watered 2–3 times daily for the first 2 weeks to establish roots. After that, reduce to daily watering for week 3, then every 2–3 days from week 4. Your first mow should be around 3–4 weeks after installation when the grass is firmly rooted. We'll give you a full aftercare guide with every turf installation.

Yes — we build timber sleeper and concrete block retaining walls for residential and commercial properties. Properly engineered and installed timber sleeper walls last 20–30 years. Concrete block walls have an even longer lifespan. All our retaining walls over 1m high are engineered and comply with Queensland council requirements. We obtain any necessary permits as part of our service.

Yes — we offer ongoing garden maintenance plans that can be tailored after a landscaping project or for any existing garden. Weekly, fortnightly, or monthly visits covering lawn mowing, edging, weeding, pruning, mulching, and seasonal planting. A well-maintained garden looks dramatically better and the investment in landscaping lasts much longer with regular care.

Yes — poor drainage is a very common Queensland problem, especially after heavy rain. We provide drainage solutions including surface channel drains, agricultural drains, dry creek beds, and reshaping of ground levels to direct water away from homes and structures. Fixing drainage also dramatically improves lawn health and reduces mosquito breeding. We assess drainage as part of any landscaping consultation.

A full garden makeover for a standard residential property typically takes 2–5 days. This includes clearing, soil preparation, edging, planting, mulching, and lawn work. Larger projects with retaining walls, paving, or irrigation can take 1–3 weeks. We always provide a clear timeline before starting.

Yes — we design and install automatic irrigation systems for lawns, garden beds, and vegetable gardens. A properly designed irrigation system saves water (often more than a manual watering routine), ensures consistent coverage, and can dramatically improve lawn and garden health in Queensland's dry seasons. We offer both in-ground pop-up systems and drip irrigation for garden beds.

In Southeast Queensland, the cooler dry months of April–September are ideal for most landscaping work — planting new gardens, laying turf, building structures, and major soil work. Summer (November–March) is fine for maintenance and some planting but the wet season can affect concrete pours and some installations. We work year-round and will advise on timing during your consultation.

We handle smaller tree and shrub removal as part of landscaping projects. For larger tree removal or trees near structures and power lines, we coordinate with licensed arborists. Stump grinding can be arranged as part of any job. We'll be upfront about what we can handle in-house versus what requires a specialist.
