Garden Plan Professionals in Tarneit, VIC, AU

“My husband had been searching in the local papers for landscapers, and we’d had a few around to quote but had not been impressed. I had come across Houzz and decided to see if we could use it to find gardens that inspired us and see who created them. That’s how we found Ben Carter and we’re so glad we did. We were looking to re-landscape the front garden of our home in McKinnon. It came with a rose garden that had been run down by years of neglectful tenants. We wanted to start over completely. He was so excited that we wanted a native garden and understood that we were after something low maintenance. He got straight to work on a plan which was done within a day or two. The garden itself was completed within just a few weeks, and within our original budget (the low end of the indicated range). Ultimately we added to the plan: we needed a new driveway now, not later, and Ben helped us select the perfect exposed aggregate for it. We also decided that this was the time to set up a rainwater tank, and Ben advised us on size and a colour that ties in with the house and garden. We also realised we needed something to act as a screen outside our bedroom window and he sourced us a beautiful one, from Entanglements whose work I loved, on sale no less. He coordinated professionally with our plumber and identified an excellent tradie to lay the exposed aggregate driveway. And the result? The plants, trees, woodchips, pebbles and rocks he selected (in consultation) tie in with the bricks of our house and garden wall as well as the tree on the verge. We have a sitting area from which to admire the natural features, and to listen to the water in the frog pond he set up at our daughter’s request. In the end, we insisted that he display a sign so people would know who created our garden. We look forward to working with him again in the future. That’s the highest recommendation we can provide.”

“GHLD have completed a number of landscape designs for some of our projects, and we couldn't have asked for more. From a design perspective, GHLD were quick to pick up the clients brief, and used this well to create some beautiful Landscape designs. From a Customer Service perspective, 10 out of 10 is my rating. Projects are completed within expected time frames, and communication is second to none. Looking forward to continuing to partner with GHLD for years to come. Highly Recommended!”

“Our garden was severely damaged by a large tree coming down in the wind. We hired Harry to repair, redesign and landscape the garden. Harry has managed the process, from design, refertilizing the garden, planting and ongoing maintenance over the past 3 years. The results are amazing and we are delighted with the work that Harry has done - and continues to do.”

“To those considering engaging the services of a professional landscape designer on their next residential or commercial project, I would strongly urge they consider contacting James Dawson Landscape Design. As architects involved in a range of residential projects, we have frequently called on their services as we know the resulting work will always complement and enhance that of our own. It is important for any designer to fully understand the requirements of the client brief, to work constructively with them and communicate well throughout the process. These are qualities that James excels in and the body of his built work to date is testament to the success of his practice.”

“This review is long overdue. I had the privilege of working with Jim Fogarty Design Pty Ltd at the 2015 Philadelphia Flower Show. The experience was great! We were his appointed landscape contractor for installation. I initially met Jim in South Florida in October of 2014 to secure plant material. We started prefabrication of the exhibit in December. He entrusted us to interpret his overall design concept and to get creative with the materials we used. We were given 4 days to put the garden together. Jim’s edgy design and knowledge of plant material resulted in a Gold Medal. We made a great team together and hope to have the opportunity work with Jim again in the future.”

“We've worked with TLC on numerous projects and have always enjoyed being a part of their work. They're extremely knowledgeable, they take enormous pride in their design work and are well respected in the Industry. I've spoken with a few of their clients who have all said how great they are to deal with and that they just make the whole process easy.”

“Rob, Tom, Jed and team have been wonderful in transforming our front garden to reflect the style and structure of our 1880 home. Not knowing much about Australian plant types Rob listened carefully to what I was looking for (nothing is ever too much to ask), creating design choices with multiple varietal choices but is polite at saying when things may not work. A perfect working relationship in my mind which has generated fantastic results! We’ve had several compliments and I couldn’t be happier. Since then Waddell Landscapes has been a constant from continuing to design and create thing like fruit and vegetable planter boxes to transform a dead area of our garden into a working wonderland for our two young kids to ongoing maintenance of our garden.”

“I regularly recommend Jason of Davidson Design Studio to my clients with mid-century homes. While Jason works across a broad spectrum of landscape architecture, his designs that work in sympathy with mid-century architecture are wonderful. I don't know of any other professional landscape architect that shares Jason passion for mid-century landscapes, so I am very happy to recommend his services. I know that all of my clients that have used Davidson Design Studio have been very happy with his level of service, attention to detail and the end result.”

“We employed the services of Beautiful Outdoor Spaces to create a garden for our new home. From the initial meeting with Kerri we knew she understood our needs and was able to cater for these perfectly. She has created a space that we love to spend time in. It is a pleasure to look at our beautiful garden and we love the plant selection as it has given us colour, privacy and an enjoyable space. We explained early on our lack of ability in the garden and Kerri has provided us with a low maintenance garden that is a pleasure to spend time in. We highly recommend Beautiful Outdoor Spaces.”
