Landscaping and Irrigation Across South-East Melbourne
I run every job personally, and customers keep mentioning me by name in their reviews.
We do residential landscaping, full irrigation systems, paving, retaining walls and turf installs. From a tired side strip to a full backyard rebuild, the same crew turns up, does the work and cleans up properly before we leave.
What we do across south-east Melbourne
Landscaping. Front yards, back yards, side strips, full property redesigns. Garden beds, edging, hedging, mulch, planting. The south-east gives us everything from sandy bayside blocks to heavy clay in the Waverley belt, and the right build order changes with the ground, so we quote from the block, not over the phone. We work on everything from period homes in the leafy inner south-east through to knockdown rebuilds.
Turf installs. Sir Walter Buffalo is what we recommend most often. It's tough, handles shade better than couch or kikuyu, and takes a Melbourne summer in its stride. We've laid a lot of it across the inner south-east, where mature trees make the light patchy. We do other varieties when they suit, and we'll tell you straight up which one is right for your block before you commit. You can see how we approach a lawn job on our instant turf pages for Bentleigh and Bentleigh East.
Irrigation. Full Hunter systems with the Hunter Node controller and the app, so you can run zones from your phone. New installs, replacements of corroded older systems, drip lines for garden beds, sprinkler runs for lawns. Daniel, our registered plumber, handles the plumbing side.
Paving and retaining walls. Crossovers, paths, patios, courtyards. Block walls, sleeper walls, Versa-Loc. Built to handle the clay-heavy soils common across the eastern suburbs and the sandier ground closer to the bay.
Follow-ups. On bigger jobs we check back after the install to make sure the lawn or new planting is establishing properly. New turf especially needs committed watering for the first 2 to 3 weeks, and we'll walk you through it before we leave.
Where we work
We service south-east Melbourne metro. The suburbs below are where most of our work happens. They split roughly into four areas, and each one has its own character and its own typical landscape problems.
Inner south-east
Leafy, established streets, period homes and mature trees. Shade matters here, which is one reason Sir Walter Buffalo is the turf we recommend most often. We do a lot of landscaping in Glen Iris and garden rebuilds through Camberwell.
Hawthorn East · Kew · Carnegie · Caulfield · Canterbury · Murrumbeena
Bayside
Sandier soils closer to the bay, more salt exposure, and gardens that dry out faster than the suburbs inland. We do a lot of irrigation work in this corner, running from Bentleigh and Bentleigh East down to the beach suburbs.
Cheltenham · Heatherton · Mordialloc · Aspendale Gardens · Bonbeach · Patterson Lakes
Eastern suburbs
The Waverley belt is where the bulk of our work happens, and our Clayton South base sits right on its edge. Post-war brick veneer homes through to knockdown rebuilds, mostly on clay where drainage matters and retaining walls are common. Our Mount Waverley and Glen Waverley jobs cover the full mix: turf, irrigation, paving, complete redesigns.
Oakleigh · Mulgrave · Springvale · Notting Hill · Vermont South
Outer south-east
Bigger blocks and more room to do a proper redesign. Full landscape rebuilds are common out this way, and we head up to Croydon in the outer east as well.
Rowville · Lysterfield · Croydon

Why work with us
The same crew turns up every time. There's no subcontracting your job out to whoever's free that week. I run the work, our regular blokes do the install, and Daniel, our registered plumber, covers the plumbing side of the irrigation.
We take small jobs seriously and big jobs even more seriously. Customers tell us they like the clear quoting, that we explain why we're recommending what we are, and that we follow up after the install to check the lawn or planting is settling in.
We're fully insured, with $5 million public liability through Bizcover plus Allianz WorkCover, and Daniel, our registered plumber, handles the plumbing side of the irrigation.
Things we don't do: we don't quote a dozen jobs a day. We won't race you to the cheapest price, we quote what it costs to do the job properly, once. We don't tell you we can fit you in next week if we can't. If we genuinely can't take a job on, we'll say so up front and try to point you at someone who can.
What customers say
We've been landscaping Melbourne's south-east since 2013. Here's what a few customers said:
Michael & his team just finished a 120m2 Sir Walter buffalo turf project for me which I'm delighted with. Reliable, professional, great value & helpful.
Work was all done in one day and clean and looking new at the end of the day.

Common questions
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No. Quotes are free across our service area, whether it's a small irrigation repair in Cheltenham or a full backyard redesign in Rowville. We come out, walk the site with you, then send a written quote within a few days.
How far do you travel?
South-east Melbourne metro is the area. We're based in Clayton South, and the suburbs listed above are where we work most. If you're in a neighbouring suburb that's not on the list, give us a call. Depending on the week, we may still be able to help.
Do you service north or west Melbourne?
No. We stay south of the Yarra. It's not that we don't like the north, it's that we can't fit it into our schedule reliably and we'd rather say no than over-promise.
What's the typical response time?
We aim to come out for a quote within 3 to 5 working days, depending on the season. Spring and the run-in to Christmas are our busiest stretches. Winter is quieter if you're flexible on timing.
Do you do both landscaping and irrigation, or one or the other?
Both. A lot of our work combines them, a new lawn or garden bed plus the irrigation to keep it alive. Doing both together saves on the install and keeps the whole job with one crew. We also do irrigation-only or landscaping-only when that's all you need.
