Turn the garden you’ve got into one you’ll actually use.
Complete garden makeovers across the Lockyer Valley. We clear what is not working, improve the soil underneath, and rebuild the space so it still looks right in five years.
Start to finish, one team
Scope depends on the property, but a makeover usually draws on most of this list.
A complete garden makeover
- Clearing unwanted vegetation and overgrowth
- Garden bed preparation and soil improvement
- Plant selection and planting
- Garden edging, weed barriers and mulching
- Decorative gravel, rock and pathways
- Turf supply and installation where required
- Green waste and project waste removal
Designed for the conditions you actually have
Lockyer Valley gardens face a specific set of problems.
Heavy summer storms, dry winters, soils that swing between rich alluvial and cracking clay depending on which side of the road you are on, and frost pockets that catch people out.
Lou holds a Bachelor of Agricultural Sciences with a background in plant science, horticulture and soil ecology. In practice that means plant choices made for your soil and aspect rather than from a catalogue, which is the difference between a garden that looks good this week and one that looks good in five years.
Keeping what is worth keeping
A makeover does not have to mean removing everything. Where existing plants and garden features are healthy, suitable and worth retaining, we build the new garden around them rather than starting from scratch.
We will tell you honestly at the consultation what is worth keeping and what is only going to cause you trouble later.

Care advice for the new garden, and the option of regular visits if you would rather we kept it that way.
