From the first conversation to the last plant going in, everything gets handled.

Landscape and Garden Designs

We start with a site visit. Walk your property, talk through what you want, figure out what's actually possible. Then I go away and map the whole thing in CAD. Every measurement, every level change, every plant that's going in.

You get design concepts showing exactly what your garden will look like before anyone digs a hole. See where the sun hits in summer. Check if that deck actually fits. Make changes while it's still just lines on a screen, not halfway through a build when it's expensive to fix.

Bespoke Structures

Pergolas, shade sails, screens, planters, seating, garden rooms. The pieces that give a garden its shape and make it somewhere you actually want to sit. None of it comes off a shelf. Each one gets drawn for your site, your materials, and the way you plan to use the space.

These aren't bolted on at the end either. They're designed in unison with the overall landscape, so the timber matches the decking, the roofline sits right against the house, and the shade lands where you need it in the afternoon. Built to handle Auckland weather and to look better as they age.

Landscape Build

The real work begins once you approve the design. Earthworks, retaining walls, decking, paving, irrigation, and planting. I make sure that everyone who needs to be there is there.

Electricians for the outdoor lights, plumbers for the irrigation, concrete workers, carpenters, and more. Instead of dealing with five different tradespeople, you only have to deal with one. The garden is built just the way it was planned. There will never be any substitutions or "close enough" compromises.

Maintenance

Gardens don't stay perfect on their own. Hedges grow, plants die, irrigation heads get knocked sideways, lawns turn patchy. Regular maintenance sorts all that before it becomes a problem you notice from the kitchen window. Pruning, seasonal replanting, lawn treatments, system checks. My team keeps your outdoor space looking how it should without you having to remember when the last fertiliser went down or whether those shrubs need cutting back.

Artificial Wall Design and Installation

Real plants can be tricky. Shaded courtyards, windy balconies, commercial spaces with no one around to water things. Some spots just aren't made for living greenery, no matter how much you want it there. Artificial green walls give you that lush look without the constant upkeep. I handle the full design and installation. You get the visual impact, the softness against hard surfaces, the green you were after. No watering schedules, no brown patches appearing three months in, no replacing plants that gave up. Works perfectly for office reception areas, courtyard feature walls, balconies, anywhere real plants would have a rough time.

Pool and Landscape Design

You've got this beautiful pool, which cost you a fair bit to put in. Then the area around it gets some basic concrete, a few plants, and that's it. Feels a bit bare, right? I look at pool and landscape spaces differently. The materials need to work when they're wet and people are walking around barefoot. Drainage has to be sorted properly so water doesn't just sit there in puddles. Plants need to survive the chlorine, the reflected heat, the constant splashing. You'll want somewhere comfortable to sit that's got shade. Somewhere to keep the pool toys, towels, cleaning gear. When it's done right, the whole area becomes somewhere you'll spend beautiful days and cozy evenings, not just a place to do laps.
