Tongue and groove timber, timber posts, set in concrete. We will use this to store our caravan. The slope is 10% (drop of 0.7m over 7m from picket fence to the end of the retaining wall).

New steps and planter box by entranceway, and small area of paving to be relaid

Mount Victoria, Wellington

Wilton, Wellington

Many years ago 3-4 steps were made with railway sleepers and these need replacing with something more permanent and stable. I also want this small area reconfigured so there is a raised edge planter box there. The aim is to make the entrance way safer to navigate as well as more attractive. There is also a small area of paving right in front of this area which has become uneven and needs relaying (I recently had a fall after tripping on it).

Hi we are seeking someone to give us ideas and costings for our back yard. Most likely to be done in stages as it is very large. Ideally someone who can provide something low maintenance and native plant based, perhaps some fruit trees... But also open to inspiration.
