Depending upon your project, generally the first step in landscape construction is to obtain a building permit. We’ve successfully applied for many permits over the years, including council application management, and engineer certifications & compliance reports.

Once permits have been obtained we start to construct! The next stage of the landscape construction process is excavation. Digging all the footings, post and stump holes and clearing unwanted vegetation. This stage alone generally makes a huge change and difference to the site.

Pouring concrete footings for walls, concreting stumps and posts into position and concreting foundations for paved areas generally follows excavation. Once the footings and foundations are finalised, all the hard surfaces can begin to be installed such as concrete paths, driveways, fencing, brick work, decks, and pergolas.

Once the hardscape elements are installed in the garden, the softscape elements can begin to be installed. Spread and levelling soil over garden beds, planting out garden beds, installing edging, laying lawn and mulching.

Appropriate lighting to help you move through the garden at night, whilst also lighting up focal points is an essential final touch. 

To ensure your garden gets the right kickstart it needs to establish, we will spend as long as required having a final walk through your new garden discussing exactly what's required to care and maintain your new landscape. We will show you exactly how to use your new irrigation controller and garden lighting.
