I have some bamboo in the front lawn - much has already been removed, but they are starting again. I need them removed please and would suspect that this would require removal of the roots as well so they don't grow again. I would like quotes for this to be done.
Residential back yard has been substantially cleared. I'd like to talk to a landscaper about where we should go from here - what plants to use, which areas to grass etc, maintenance of retained areas etc. North Shore, Auckland.

Front yard requires a complete makeover. This may involve concrete slab for 2 cars plus the leveling of the rest of the yard in order to make it a usable area (grass). There is no back yard for us hence we require this area to be used to its maximum capability (max lawn area). Retaining walls probably will be involved. I have a couple of ideas of the way the yard should be but i would welcome landscape ideas and quotes for the full work. Total area is about 130m2 to landscape. Mob:...
We have an old raised bed in the garden which our dogs have dug out putting earth all over the nearby pavings. We'd like someone to clean up the earth (it can go back in the raised bed). Then put decking over the raised bed (approx 5m x 1.2m). Possibly put plants at either end going through decking into soil in raised bed (and suitably boxed in). Look forward to hearing from you!
Would like to get a new deck about 3x5m and a patio door instead of big window out from dining room. Brick house, easy access (but no vehicle access to the backyard), location: Brookfield/Albany. Need a free quotation first.
A ground floor apartment with an enclosed courtyard, approximately 10m2. Requires leveling (soil and a stump to be removed) to relieve water buildup/flooding in torrential rain. More than half of the 10m2 area has already been dug out and the soil removed. Ideally the end result would be a semi-paved area (to allow drainage) with a compact washing line and some planting.
Prepare and lay ready lawn to 50sq mtr area. Area was previously lawn with a new 8m long retaining wall recently build. Job will include laying bricks around the edge of some of the area (11m) to match the rest of lawn. Bricks will be provided)
I am looking at retaining 2 sides of our section (not more than 1.5m) to flatten the section. Will need fill, topsoil and grass the top.
Hi we need someone that can come over and help us to transform our front yard. We may need a small retaining wall, do some tidy up on the lawn and help us to get some ideas for the project. Many Thanks
Need extra parking in front of our rental unit. At present concrete drive leads to space for 2 cars, need to create a space for 1 more car. Have grass area to left that needs to be dug out, levelled and pavers laid. Low concrete wall probably needs to be removed too. Probably best to meet on site to discuss.
New deck @ front of house and possibly side
Price for all or parts welcome. See attached sketch for outline. In summary : 1) New deck - total 63 m2. Will need to overlay existing concrete patio 30m2, and remove existing decking about 20m2. One set of steps. 2) New frameless glass balustrade - to steps aswell. 3) New concrete path to both sides of house. Will need to excavate existing ground - gravel / clay 4) New surface water drainage to replace existing clay pipes. Including surface water gulley set into concrete path as note...
We have a car port which is approx 35 sqm. We want a deck to be constructed on top of it. It will require building consent as its over 3m high. There is a pathway down the side of the house which we want to widen even more approx. 2.5 m. This will involves flattening the ground and moving a retaining wall which marks the end of the garden further away from the house. The retaining wall at present is approx 75cm after it is moved back it will be approx 1.2m
Clean up after renovations. Builders came in and made a mess - need a low maintenance solution in a native bush environment.
I need a small area of farm fencing moved. The fence comprises steel warratahs and sheep netting and I need approximately 40/50 metres moved to a new location. It is not a huge job but I would like it done quite promptly. Location is Torbay, near Lonely Track Rd.
Dig out the dirt on the bank outside cafe to create a flat planting area we can grow herbs/vegetables in.
We have resource consent to create extra space below our house. The rooms were are already dug out and plumbing was there before we bought the house, but we want to make the ceilings higher (ie dig a bit further down - floor is concrete), sort out damp proofing and insulation (basically make it legal as a habitable space) and re-jig the layout which would involve altering the plumbing. We also want to level and re-lawn the garden which is currently very sloped (would like to know if we can use...
We have an area of approximately 45sqm outside a downstairs living area. We want to use plain concrete pavers of ( --- ).
10m2 of Bamboo cut down.....remaining stumps to be plouged up to allow greass to return
Replace an existing retaining wall which is 15 to 20 meters long and ranges in hight from 1 to 1.5 meters. There is also a set of streps down in the middle of the wall.

live in a house on a sloping spot and have a problem of concentration of water on the ground that needs to flow.
I have a reasonably small area of "yard" that I want cleared and grassed, perhaps with a couple of plants. I own some paving slabs that I want to be used to create a small patio in front of the sleep out. The area is currently covered in old wooden pallets and volcanic scoria. Secondly I want my deck closed in.
Adding top soil, laying turfs, planting some scrubs, laying paving /pebble/chips and tyding up a small garden in Albany, northshore.
Build retaining wall using tongue & groove, with posts behind the visible wall. Approx 19.5m x 750mm high.
We have a sloping garden, approximately 250 sqm that needs to be changed into a more usable space with terraces, outdoor area, tropical style garden. We would love to see samples of your work (before/after) for similar jobs completed.
Hi, Need to backfill slab, like to use crushed concrete depending on availablility at this time of year or maybe metal depending on cost. Three loads of clay to be removed also.
I need to have part of my garden cleared (digger or stumper) and also require mulching and removal of foliage. Access is very easy (corner plot, no fencing). Just added photos. Thanks.
