Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers in Spring Hill, Victoria

“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.”

“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.”

“I met Stephen when he came to help me with changes I wanted to make in our Malvern garden. He has been able to create a garden which is wonderful, interesting, has plants I love from gardens of my past and has movement ( the swish swishing of the leaves of the Golden Robimia) enjoyed by young grandchildren over the years. I wanted a garden to garden and to be able to change things here and there if I so desired! We have everything here! Colour, interesting pots, citrus, olives, herbs, dappled shade for hot summer days and a cheerful sunny north facing courtyard to share many happy hours with family and friends. Not only has Stephen created this fabulous garden, we have had lots of fun along the way. I now consider him a friend.”

“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.”

“We've used Acoustic Landscape Design on two occasions - a fully landscaped courtyard including deck, plants, irrigation system and lighting and then later another courtyard cleanup and construction of a new fence. George is very pragmatic on design and understanding our vision and making it into a pragmatic garden which works over the longterm . We had an courtyard with trees positioned in awkward position but George designed the deck to take this into account and it is now a feature. He liaised with us very well in terms of budget, design, timeframes, materials and it exceeded our expectations. I have recommended George to all my friends and family which is an attests to what I think of his work.”

“Flawless Landscaping the name says it all ...I was looking for a landscaper with vision someone who could create a total look and I certainly found the right company ..The Project was a difficult one as the area to be landscaped was narrow and sloped Steve produced an amazing entertaining area and Landscaped the front of the house as well. His ideas and eye to detail was excellent he created a beautiful stone water feature..a doubled deck entertaining area ,stone paving front and back, Steve created a completely private area with raised walls and rendered gardens and two levels with stone steps ..The entrance to the house needed something Grand this was achieved with 3 very large steps of black basalt stone and and large stone paving ,this was carried thru from the stone water feature...a fence was built with rendered piers with stone capping and finished with a beautiful handmade wrought iron and glass gate .. The overall finish is breathtaking Steve's attention to detail and commitment to the overall project was Flawless .. It was entered into the 2013 Victorian Landscaping Awards and although it didn't take out 1st place it was highly commended for its Design and Execution..which is why I am extremely proud of Steve and his company for there achievement and dedication in creating my dream landscaping job ...

“Brett Robinson Principal with Acre Landscape architecture was engaged in Feb 2014 to design us a new backyard which was to include an Alresco type area, decking, water feature and a redesigned garden areas with built in BBQ to compliment the replica Federation style home. The project was designed to replace the existing bluestone pitcher courtyard and retainer walls, gardens etc. The area itself was relatively small however Brett was given latitude to visually change the look by introducing new concepts and features. Brett provided us with detailed concept plans which met our original requirements plus including 2 additional stone feature walls clad in outdoor bawa bawa stone, bluestone steppers (some random) in three zones of the garden, raised bench clad in sawn bluestone and a fully detailed planting schedule for the new gardens. Brett also prepared the working drawings for the development of the decked area and the new alfresco roof which included timber lined ceiling, LED downlights 4 skylights and fan. In the conceptual phase costs came in over budget and Brett and I sat down and with the landscaper and found some creative alternatives to reduce the quoted costs while maintaining the interity of the design. Brett's experience in landscape design including plant selection, maintaining linkages between each zone of the garden, the selection and use of high quality products and creativity in providing well placed features shone through with the detailing that he applied to the concept and working drawings. Brett was easy to deal with and always available to assist with technical issues particularly during the hardscaping phase. Brett provided us with a number of landscapers and builders who he thought would be ideal for the project. We interviewed each and selected a separate landscaper and builder. Brett was often in contact with each contractor to ensure that the design was adhered to and that cost and deadlines were on track. We are so pleased with the finished product and the sensational new look to our property. I would have no hesitation in recommending Acre Landscape Design and Brett Robinson to any one looking to renovate their property given the difference that his designs have made to our property and the enjoyment we have derived from our new garden design.”
