What we get called out for

  • Leaning sleeper walls on steep blocks
  • Plants burnt by the salt wind
  • Lawns thinning out under the gums

Near the beach, salt wind burns soft leaves and sandy soil dries out in a day. Up the hill, blocks are steep and the soil is thin over rock, so walls and steps do a lot of the work. Big gums and bush out the back keep lawns in shade.

    How often we get gardens ready to sell

This shows what's behind the calls we get in the area. It isn't a reading of your garden. Your place might be quite different, and we check the ground when we come out.

The ground round here

Soil: Mixed

Sand near the beaches, and thin soil over sandstone once the hills start.

Changes from street to street. We check it on every job.

That's the broad picture across the area. Soil can change from one street to the next, and new estates can have anything under them. We check yours on the day.

Gardens we mostly see

  • Sloping backyards
  • Sandstone walls and steps
  • Pool surrounds
  • Coastal planting

A real mix. Beach cottages on sand, and newer homes on steep blocks with rock not far under the lawn.

Yours might be nothing like that. We look before we quote.

Cross-section of a garden. Plants sit on topsoil over subsoil. The sun comes in at an angle. Water runs through the topsoil to a drain. A buried pipe is marked with a flag before anyone digs.SUNTOPSOILSUBSOILPLANTSWATERPIPE MARKEDDRAIN
What we check on every job, wherever you are: soil, water, sun, drainage and what's under the ground.
