What does landscaping include?

When you book your landscaper, it’s important to let them know in your task exactly what work you need to be done - from simple maintenance services to a complex landscape design for your outdoors. That way, they’ll be able to make you a fair offer and bring along the right tools for the job. 

Not sure where to start? If you need a range of general landscaping services, grab a notepad and pen, then go for a wander outside. Make a note of anything that needs tidying up, trimming, or removing. Then make sure you include these tasks in your listing. 

Another way to think about your landscaping is to break it down by the type of specialised skill or service you need, such as installing a water feature or irrigation system, designing garden beds, or planning the landscape of your pool area. Here are some of the jobs you might give to your landscaper and what you can expect to happen during the process.

Planning

When you’re undertaking a BIG change, it’s important to lay the groundwork with some planning first. A garden designer will help come up with ideas and map everything out on paper before you get started on your garden space makeover. Or you might hire a landscape architect to plan a larger commercial landscaping project in your local community or public outdoor space.

Earth and rocks

Don’t break your back over your backyard landscaping - no matter how little or how much you need to do. You can hire earthmoving contractors to do your trench digging, levelling, and even your pool excavation or boring excavation. They’ll bring the all tools and equipment needed to dig and move the earth so you (literally) don’t have to get your hands dirty.

Gardens

Planning a nice new garden bed to grow your own veggies, flower beds, shady trees, or just want to reduce the amount of ground you have to mow in your yard? Get some help with your garden landscaping and garden edging to get the project off your to-do list and done sooner. That way, you can get on with the fun bit in landscaping - planting!

Water

Where there are plants, there’s water. Make sure your plants get water when they need it (without having to remember to hose) with a drip irrigation system or a sprinkler system installation. Or make your garden more beautiful with a garden pond or water features. Either way, getting your water systems sorted is so much quicker and easier with an extra pair of hands or a landscaper near you who knows what they’re doing.

Trees

Trees are wonderful things, but sometimes, a tree’s gotta go. If you’re not experienced, you should never do chainsawing, stump grinding, wood chipping and mulching, or land clearing yourself. That’s something you should leave up to an experienced landscaper with the right equipment and background to get the job done properly and safely. 

Building and installations

A big component of landscaping is installing things to make your space more functional and beautiful. Things like retaining walls, artificial grass installation, landscape lighting, or even garden benches to sit on. It’s always best to get a landscaper to help when it involves heavy lifting or specialist equipment. Garden landscapers can help you get your installations done safely and help you start enjoying your space much sooner.

Calamvale QLD 4116, Australia

18th Aug 2025

Hi, We're after an experienced handyman or painter to paint the concrete retaining wall for us, top and bottom. The bottom wall is approximately 25m long by 2.5m or so in height. The top concrete sleepers are maybe 1m high. The bottom wall has been washed and the top one would need to be washed before painting (or i can do this before the job starts if its an issue). I will also supply all the paint. I need someone experienced, detailed and that can do a good job. I'm happy for them to get started asap but please ask the questions (if you need any clarification) before making an offer. I don't want any additional costs to start incurring once you are there to do the job. Thanks. Thanks

Experienced landscaper to install palm trees

$700

Calamvale QLD 4116, Australia

18th Aug 2025

We're after an experienced and creative landscaper/handyman to install some palm trees around our pool area. 1. We want a few small palm trees (low maintenance) to cover the rock area around the pool, approximately 12m in length on one side and 4-5m on the other. We want the palms like in the attached photos of 2 pools. There is also another small 2. Drop down palms to be planted above retaining walls like in the examples attached of drop down plants/palms. The area where we need it above the pool and is marked in the attached photo. The length is approximately 20-25m long. The job will also involve putting top soil in, weed mat and then plants. I don't think we need top soil for the top but probably just a weed mat. I can put white rocks in after the job is done. I will supply top soil, weed mat and all the plants or you can supply this and I will reimburse you. Thanks
