Quick answers
How much does landscaping cost?+
Small garden makeovers often start around $2,000 to $5,000, a mid-size project with paving and planting is commonly $10,000 to $30,000, and full backyard transformations with structures run higher. The biggest variables are hard surfaces, retaining and site access.
How much does it cost to lay turf?+
Supplied and laid turf typically runs $12 to $25 per square metre depending on the variety and how much prep the site needs. A standard backyard lawn often lands between $1,500 and $4,000 including soil prep. Poor prep is the main reason new turf fails.
Do I need council approval for a retaining wall?+
Many councils require approval for retaining walls above a set height, often around one metre, and walls near boundaries or affecting drainage may need engineering. Rules vary by council, so ask your landscaper to confirm before building. Building without approval can be costly to fix.
When is the best time to landscape?+
Autumn and spring are ideal for planting and turf because the soil is warm and the weather is mild, which helps plants establish. Hardscaping like paving and walls can be done year round. Summer planting is possible but needs more watering to survive.
