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.

Move 2m3 soil frm front to back, Take 1.5m3 clay pile from back to tip
$650
Brunswick East VIC, Australia
20th Apr 2024
Hi. We have a new build 1. We need soil taken from the front of the house, through the house and into the backyard. The soil then needs to be spread across half the yard. You will need to bring wheelbarrow/s, use a small ramp to get over the bottom of the sliding door, and have a trailer or small truck to take the soil to the tip. 2. There is a pile of clay which needs to be wheeled through the house and taken to the tip. This work will be easier after the soil above is spread and the level of the back yard rises There will not be trades on site on Anzac Day. We will additionally pay $60 for the tip fee

Landscaping Assistance
$150
Elwood VIC, Australia
14th Apr 2024
I need someone to help me with a basic landscaping project. I am placing new weed mat down along the entire length of my house (refer first photo). Note the weeds will be gone by the time this job needs to be done. To do this the stones needs to be raked back, weed mat placed down, pavers placed at 1.5 metre intervals (approx) and the stones shovelled around the pavers to fully cover the weed mat. The second photo shows the end result I'm looking for. I will be able to assist with the work. I just need someone strong who can do the 'heavy lifting' eg. raking and shovelling of the stones. All materials and equipment will be supplied.
Sam did a great job. Was really quick and a pleasure to deal with.
