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.Â
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.Â
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.Â
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.

Gardener or Landscaper Needed to Dig Holes and Move Soil
$200
Molonglo Valley ACT, Australia
5th Dec 2025
I need support in my garden this weekend. The ground is very hard and although I have tried to dig the holes myself I do not have the strength or the right equipment. I need twenty to thirty holes dug for small plants. The plants are in 140mm pots so the holes do not need to be large. I also need a small amount of soil moved from my lawn to the verge which is about three wheelbarrow loads. A landscaper or someone with landscaping experience who has the proper tools would be perfect. I am very grateful for anyone who is able to assist and I am also happy to discuss other small landscaping jobs if this is something you enjoy.
Tom was absolutely fantastic. He dug all the holes I needed with care and precision and was completely happy to adjust anything I asked for. He had every tool required which made the job efficient and stress free. His communication was excellent throughout and he was genuinely a lovely person to work with. I would happily book him again and highly recommend him to anyone needing landscaping support.

Florey ACT 2615, Australia

I need help with mulch removal (approx. 80sqm). Preparing my backyard, currently filled with mulch, to be ready for grass. I’ve done a lot of raking and most of the mulch are in piles but would love a tasker to finish off the removal and dispose of it appropriately (my green bin is already full). Can access the backyard through garage roller door. Shortest distance between garage door and tree approx. 1.5m (pictured). Will pay extra if you need to trim the tree back to fit a trailer/large equipment etc. through. Pretty please and I’ll chuck in a crisp Coke Zero on top :) Type of gardening: Other Size of garden: 50m²-150m² Has green waste bin: Yes
Brett and his son were fantastic - super friendly and worked incredibly efficiently! They cleared away huge piles of mulch in no time. Highly recommend their services.
