Backyard rescue!! Sometimes DIY doesn't have to mean completelyyyy yourself.

When plans change and deadlines are closing in it can be much more practical to get a hand from the professionals.

Designed on site with repeat clients, our favourite!

One key element on this site was a climbing wall of Star Jasmine. Our clients needed some extra privacy from the neighbouring site due to the height of the entry level decks.
Our solution was a climbing frame utilising 100mm galv concrete mesh which we painted black. We managed to source three GIANT Star Jasmine and hand wound each leader through the mesh to give it a head start.

With this one coming up a year since completion we're excited to revisit and see how things have filled in!

Light and natural or Dark and moody?

We designed and built this raised garden from scratch!

Constructed from 200x100mm Macrocarpa sleepers with a big 200x200mm corner post all meticulously planed, routed, sanded and cut to length by our team before being installed on site.

An interesting solution to a large variation in levels on this particular site.

What do you prefer?

Contemporary Japanese courtyard

In before the rain... The guys were glad to get this one hydroseeded before the weather had time to turn it back in to a pond.

Elements supplied by our friends at Urban Paving

- Waitaha Schist steppers create a unique meandering path ready to be planted out
- 15mm BlackStone chip provides great contrast to the space
- Three in-set Hapuku boulders varying in size with Nz cushion moss underplanting and Japanese 'Osakazuki' maple complete this low maintenance contemporary courtyard.

A pleasure to create for our clients and a beautiful addition to an already lovely new build.

Unfortunately for us this stunning project has come to an end.

From guiding the owners through the design stage to planting the final Lomandra, we enjoyed all the challenges this site presented.

We can't wait to revisit in the Spring when everything has begun to fill out.
