Landscaping FAQ
Everything you need to know about our landscaping service in Melbourne. Can't find your answer? Call us directly.
Do you offer garden design?
Yes, we provide on-site consultation and create simple planting plans as part of our service. For complex landscape architecture (hard landscaping, retaining walls, outdoor structures), we can recommend specialist designers and execute their plans.
What's the best time to lay turf in Melbourne?
Autumn (March-May) and spring (September-November) are ideal. The moderate temperatures help turf establish roots before summer heat or winter cold. We can lay turf year-round with proper watering.
Do you prepare the soil before planting?
Always. We dig in compost, organic matter, and appropriate fertilisers to give plants the best start. Soil preparation is the single most important factor in long-term garden success.
Can you create a low-maintenance garden?
Absolutely — we specialise in it. By choosing the right plants for your conditions, mulching well, and installing drip irrigation, we create gardens that look great with minimal ongoing effort.
Do you remove old plants and turf?
Yes — site clearing is included. We remove old plants, dead turf, weeds, and debris before preparing the soil for new planting.
Can I stage the work over multiple visits?
Yes — many clients prefer to do their garden in stages to spread the cost. We can create a master plan and execute it in phases that make sense for your budget.
