Our Site Preparation Process
Laying the groundwork for lasting results
We take a structured, professional approach to ensure your site is fully ready for the next stage of landscaping:
01.
Consultation
We begin by understanding your goals and inspecting the current condition of your outdoor space.
02.
Site Planning
Based on your vision and our assessment, we plan the landscape layout and identify what needs to be cleared, shaped, or protected.
03.
Clearing & Levelling
Our team removes debris, old landscaping, and obstacles, then expertly levels the land to create a clean, workable canvas.
04.
Soil Improvement & Drainage
We prepare the ground with soil conditioning, compaction, and drainage planning to support healthy gardens and hardscaping.
05.
Irrigation Prep (Optional)
If required, we’ll integrate irrigation infrastructure to support efficient watering and long-term plant health.
Irrigation Installation
An effective irrigation system is key to maintaining a healthy, vibrant landscape. We design and install custom irrigation setups that deliver water exactly where it’s needed - reducing waste and supporting strong plant growth.
Our team integrates irrigation into your overall landscape plan, ensuring the system works efficiently with the contours, plant types, and layout of your site.
