What a landscape design consult gives you

A good design consult is about decisions—what to do first, what to avoid, and what will make the biggest difference on your specific property.

During a consult, we focus on:

Layout and flow: where entertaining, play, storage, and garden zones should sit

Levels and usability: how to handle slopes so the space feels stable and safe

Access planning: side access, bins, clotheslines, paths, and “daily use” routes

Surface choices: paving vs turf vs garden beds (and what suits the wear-and-tear)

Planting direction: shade/sun considerations, privacy screening, and maintenance expectations

Staging options: what to do now vs later so the project stays budget-friendly

Freshly weeded garden beds with clean edging in Sydney

A design consult is a strong fit if:

You’re renovating and want the outdoor areas to match the home

You have a sloped block and don’t want to guess at levels or retaining needs

You want more function (not just “more plants”)

You’re happy to stage works over time, but need a plan to guide decisions

You need a sensible approach for strata/common areas (access windows, tidy finishes, low-fuss upkeep)

What we consider on Sydney sites

Sydney blocks come with common constraints—tight side access, reactive soils in some areas, older drainage issues, or slopes that limit how you use the space.

In our design direction we’ll typically consider:

Access for materials and removal (and how that affects staging)

How levels interact with existing structures (paths, driveways, fences)

Where water naturally wants to go (and what surfaces will cope better)

How much sun different areas get across the day

The maintenance reality (time, budget, and who’s doing the upkeep)

If your plan is likely to include a retaining solution, it’s worth reviewing options early: Retaining Walls.

Outcomes we design for

Most people don’t actually want “landscaping”—they want a better day-to-day experience outside. The design work is about getting that outcome without overbuilding.

Common outcomes we aim for:

A yard you actually use: clear zones, comfortable circulation, fewer awkward corners

Cleaner edges and easier upkeep: practical bed lines, mulch coverage, and access that makes maintenance simpler

Better wet-weather performance: planning falls and surface choices so water doesn’t become a constant annoyance

Privacy where it matters: screening that fits the site and the maintenance you’re willing to do

A look that suits the home: materials and finishes chosen to feel intentional and consistent

Our design-to-build pathway

02

Site consult

We confirm constraints (levels, access, drainage considerations) and talk layout options.

03

Design direction + selections

We narrow finishes and features so the plan is buildable and maintainable.

04

Staging plan

We map “do now” vs “do later” steps to keep the project realistic.

05

Optional build delivery

If you want us to deliver the construction, we’ll confirm scope and scheduling after the plan is agreed.

06

Follow-up recommendations

You’ll get straightforward advice on watering, mulch top-ups, and what to watch for next month.

If you want a consult booked, use Contact and include a few photos.

Areas we cover for design consults

We offer landscape design consults Sydney-wide. After-hours consults can be requested when access is tricky or when tenants/strata need coordination, and we’ll confirm what’s workable when you enquire.

Examples of where we often book include the Inner West, Northern Beaches, and the Hills District.

How to choose a landscape designer Sydney homeowners feel confident with

If you’re comparing options, focus on whether the “design” is actually useful once you start building.

Look for:

Advice that accounts for levels and access (not just “feature ideas”)

A clear staging path if budget needs to be spread out

Material suggestions that match your maintenance tolerance

Practical discussion of constraints (what can’t be done, and why)

Real examples of outcomes on similar sites (not just inspiration boards)

If you want more background reading, our Blogs can help you plan questions before your consult.

Design elements we can coordinate into one plan

A strong landscape plan usually combines a few key elements rather than trying to do everything at once. Depending on your priorities, we can design around:

Paving zones and access routes (paths, patios, practical circulation) — Paving

Garden beds that stay stable (weed suppression and moisture management) — Mulching

The goal isn’t to add more—it’s to choose the elements that make the biggest functional difference.

Lawn areas that get used (kids, pets, entertaining spill-over) — Turf Laying Sydney

Level changes that create usable space (and protect structures) — Retaining Walls

FAQ

You’ll get practical direction you can act on: a clearer layout plan, priorities for what to do first, and guidance on finishes that suit the site and your maintenance expectations. We’ll also flag constraints we can see on-site—like access limitations, level changes, and wet-weather trouble spots—so your next steps are based on reality, not guesswork.

Yes. Smaller spaces benefit a lot from good planning because every metre matters. We’ll focus on circulation, storage, privacy, and surfaces that don’t become slippery or high-maintenance. Tight access can also affect staging and material choice, so we’ll talk through options that are practical for your property.

Absolutely. A staged plan is often the smartest approach. We can help you prioritise “high impact” changes first (like access, surfaces, or level fixes), then stage planting and finishing touches later. That way, future spending follows the same plan instead of becoming a patchwork of half-decisions.

We can guide layout choices and selections so the plan is buildable and maintainable. The level of documentation depends on what you need—some clients want high-level direction to brief their builder, while others want more detailed selections and staging notes. We’ll confirm what’s most useful once we understand your goals and site constraints.

If you’re in Sydney metro, there’s a good chance we can help. The simplest way to confirm is to send your suburb and a couple of photos when you enquire, and we’ll advise availability and any access considerations that may affect the consult timing.

Yes—this is one of the biggest “make or break” factors on sloped blocks. We’ll talk through where level changes create usability, where retaining may be required, and how surfaces and drainage considerations should be handled so the space stays stable and practical.

Yes, if you want one team to carry the plan through. After the consult and once inclusions are agreed, we can discuss delivery sequencing and confirm next steps. Some clients prefer to use the design direction with their own builder; others prefer one point of contact—either way works.

We’ll help you spend where it counts. That usually means prioritising structure and access first, then “softening” with planting and finishing touches. If you have a target budget range, tell us early so we can propose realistic staging options that still achieve a cohesive outcome over time.

Send 5–10 photos of the space, note your top two priorities (e.g., entertaining + lower maintenance), and list any must-keep items (trees, clothesline, access paths). If you’ve got rough measurements or a simple sketch, include it—this helps us make the consult more productive and keeps recommendations grounded.

Yes, subject to access and scheduling. Shared sites usually need extra clarity around access windows, tidy finishes, and ongoing maintenance expectations. A consult helps align stakeholders early so the plan supports presentation and usability without creating high-maintenance headaches.
