23 years ago we decided on the name Landscape Solutions because it encompassed our business to a tee. Since then we’ve maintained an under- lying commitment to be the ‘landscape partner of choice’ based on a stategy of best meeting our clients’ needs, identifying where we can better our service delivery and maximising our resources to be the ‘one stop shop’ for all external works.

It’s that same commitment to our clients and their projects that makes us a regular on the preferred tenderer’s list for the industry’s biggest players.

In addition to substantial landscape construction experience and capabilities we’ve also built up impressive maintenance, irrigation and sports turf divisions.

In 2015 Landscape Solutions received several distinguished industry awards - most notably ‘Best Commercial Maintenance’ (in both NSW and QLD) as well as the highest recognition we can earn - ‘Landscape Construction of the Year’ for our role in the delivery of Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital in Brisbane.

To meet the demands of an ever-evolving industry, we’ve also strengthened our civil and sports turf capabilities with the addition of several key staff. It’s not as if we’ve just jumped in either – we’ve been delivering quality civil works and sports fields for a long time and these strategic person-nel have been engaged to bolster our formidable team and to give you - the most important person at Solutions the very best service in the future.

After completing Paragilga Lake for Moreton Bay Regional Council, Toowoomba Regional Council engaged our services to deliver the award-winning Garnett Lehmann Park. The scope included the widening of an existing basin, construction of boardwalk crossings, shared pathways and a sustainable landscape that features a mix of water plants, mature trees and flood-tolerant vegetation.

huntlee estateIn 2015 blue-chip client LWP were named ‘Best Developer of Master-planned Communities’ in the world! Take a trip to Huntlee Estate in the Hunter Valley and you’ll understand why.

Huntlee Estate is designed to offer the best in modern living and over the next two decades will become home to more than 20,000 people.

Landscape Solutions have been at Huntlee from the start - creating the high quality finishes that ensure the internationally acclaimed developer’s goal - ‘to go beyond the plan in developing better places to live, work and play’ is achieved.

a place to reflectThis magnificent Anzac Memorial in Burpengary (QLD) stands as a testament to quality work-manship and dedication to get the job done. Our construction team toiled around the clock to deliver Buchanan Park War Memorial on time for Moreton Bay Regional Council. “Landscape Solutions have really excelled. We are extremely pleased with the outcome and very proud of this project” said a representative from Council.

The pathways were finished with abrasive blasting and lined with ‘rural’ fencing contstructed from hardwood and stainless steel balustrade cables. The scope also inlcuded new drainage to the majority of the area, fresh planting zones and turfing.

wow - what a statement!

top landscape = top sales

You certainly can’t miss the entry into Bungarribee Super Park in Sydney’s west - Landscape Solutions have really made a statement!Designed by JMD’s David Warwick, the entry is a visual reference to the area’s industrial and military past. The pointy forms represent the old factory roofline while the black and white pattern is a copy of a military camouflage design.Josh French (far right) was impressed with the outcome and believes the Super Park will provide a vast range of Public Open Space activities for the residents of Western Sydney.

Landscape Solutions’ versatility and ability to deliver a range of finishes is on display at Warriewood’s newest retirement village. Working on behalf of PBS Builders, our team have again excelled - embellishing the site with hand-crafted sandstone walls, granite pathways, custom timber & concrete finishes and a competition grade synthetic bowling green.

Presentation is very important when ‘selling’ is on the agenda. When Harvest Estate was ‘on sale’, Michael Chan from Investa Land was first to praise Landscape Solutions. “The Sales Information Centre and surround-ing streets looked sensational. The opening went off without a hitch and we received many positive comments - including one from the Mayor of Maitland Council who remarked on how great the precinct looked.”

“beulah, beulah...”Not your typical landscape job, the ‘Bridge to Beulah’ in Appin was a challenging project and a cracking result for client - Sydney Living Museums. Battling through two weeks of torrential rain and avoiding a notoriously dangerous creek, our team put down over one kilometre of crushed sandstone drive-way and reconstructed the oldest ‘private’ bridge in Australia.
