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.

I've got a garden project that's mostly done and just needs the right person to come in and finish it off properly. My previous landscaper did a great job but unfortunately isn't available for a couple weeks — so I'm looking for someone with genuine landscaping experience to pick up where they left off. Landscapers only please. Here's what needs doing: Install 1 x large paver (approx 800mm) — paver on-site Install 3 x small stepping pavers — on-site Prep and lay approx 10m² buffalo turf Install a plinth board Sort out drainage in one area — the drain is already there, just need someone who can assess what's needed and get it done Test and commission the front drip irrigation — timer and lines are in, just needs checking, adjusting and final connections Finish off the drip line run — tubing and fittings on-site Fit off the rear sprinkler system — partially done Cut ag pipe stub to finished level Trim pittosporum to 3m height Setup 2 x Elluminate light systems (supplied by me) — 1 front, 1 back Full site cleanup on completion This is a labour only job. Most materials are on-site ready to go. If anything additional is needed on the day, please purchase and keep the receipt and I'll reimburse you in full.

Mitcham VIC 3132, Australia

27th Jun 2026

**PLEASE PROVIDE QUOTE AS BID AND SCOPE OF WORK IN COMMENT** We are seeking an experienced landscaper to transform our owner's small courtyard into a clean, low-maintenance outdoor space. Please refer to the attached photos. We would like the finished result to be similar to the reference image provided (decorative pebbles with stepping pavers). Scope of Works: Remove and dispose of all existing green timber deck tiles. Thoroughly clean the concrete/paved surface underneath, including removing all dirt, weeds, moss and debris. Supply and install a quality weed mat over the entire area. Supply and install decorative stones/pebbles (similar colour and finish to the reference image). Lift and relay the existing concrete stepping pavers so they sit neatly within the pebbles (or provide an alternative recommendation if required). Trim and shape the courtyard tree to improve appearance and reduce overhang. Remove all green waste and rubbish from site. Leave the area clean and ready for use. Requirements: Supply all materials, equipment and labour. There is a shared green bin that can be used. Must have experience with landscaping and similar projects. When submitting your offer, please include in the comments: Your fixed-price bid. A detailed scope of works outlining exactly what is included. The type of weed mat and decorative pebbles you intend to use. Estimated timeframe to complete the works. Any exclusions or recommendations. We are happy to consider alternative landscaping ideas if they provide a similar modern, low-maintenance finish.

Nick is an professional operator. He’d assisted my owners in turning around their backyard. He’d even gone above and beyond to complete an initial meeting with the owners to ensure their expectations are met. He could have rang the owners but insisted on meeting the owners in person and inspecting the condition prior to commencing the work request. My owners are very happy with the result!!
