24.01.2022 Great outcome on this frontyard makeover in Herne Hill. Thanks to the owners Dale and Jill for leaving the outcome and design entirely up to me and trusting me to deliver the finished result. Cant believe how many people commented on how good it looked when they walked past....thank you.

24.01.2022 Latest garden makeover completed on Friday afternoon in Leopold. Don't you just love good weather so you can get a job like this done in a couple of days. Thanks Alison for being such a pleasure to work for......great coffee, biscuits and maybe a snow drop or 2!

22.01.2022 The brief was to get this makeover in Clifton Springs done before Christmas and it was finished today. Big thanks to Nigel, Michelle, Lachie and Ryan for giving me the opportunity to show what I can do and to keep the cats inside whilst I was hard at it. Hope they get plenty of good comments from family that come over for Christmas lunch as I have had lots of positive comments from neighbours and general passers by. Some regular walkers still cant believe the transformation.......so I am chuffed with that!

20.01.2022 You wouldn't think so but this job ended up being a full weeks work for me. The whole yard was full of black plastic and scoria to 150mm down (not that you could tell from the first photo) that needed to be removed first (that was fun) before I could start creating any type of garden! Anyway I got their in the end and the result was fantastic.

19.01.2022 Now this was one hard garden makeover but it now looks fantastic and the owner (+ her dad) is very happy to have their beautiful garden back. It was an award winner!

16.01.2022 Before, during 1, during 2 and after on this frontyard makeover in Grovedale. What used to be a magnificent lawn area years ago was turned into a barren piece of dirt under the duress of a big gum tree on the nature strip, has now been transformed into a beautiful new native garden. My original intention was to curve the garden beds on the outer and make a circle in the middle but as the existing retaining wall in the background ran diagonally across the frontward, I re-thought my design and decided to follow this lead and create a symmetrical design in sympathy. I think it turned out perfect actually and the owners (Golda and Barry) think it's tremendous. I must thank them for having faith in me and trusting me to do this makeover on your home.

16.01.2022 I wish I had taken a before photo on this job as it was all roses, woody old lavender and masses of weeds! Total cost of this makeover was just under $1k.....owner (Barbara) is one happy lady.

15.01.2022 I really enjoy doing pre-sale makeovers. Can't wait to see what the final result will be on this upcoming sale in Bell Post Hill........Good luck Dale & Jill.

14.01.2022 Just completed my last job on Saturday in a backyard in Grovedale. Great finish and all my own design. Thanks Mudge for helping me relocate the existing pavers from under the pergola to down the side of the house so that the owner can now build a deck. He is very happy with the finish and understandably so, compared to what he had to start with. Little Jimmy (the dog) can have his yard back now and stop trembling when he sees me!

13.01.2022 I haven't posted any pics of recent jobs in a while as they have been pretty stock standard work being new instant turf, replacement of concrete paths, new synthetic turf etc but this backyard makeover in Highton near the Epworth hospital and Deakin University is all my own design and I am super proud of how it is coming along. Only the Sir Walter turf to be done now but that is still two weeks away because of all the rain we had recently. Would really appreciate anyone's comments here good or bad. If you like it then love it, if you don't like it then bag it!

09.01.2022 Nice finish on a job in Gotemba Rd Bell Post Hill. Not many plants in as owners wanted to decide and have some fun themselves.

09.01.2022 Happy Birthday to Ray for this coming weekend. Your backyard makeover is now complete after we finished installing new paving last Saturday and new lawn today. It came up a treat and ready for the big family gathering/celebration this weekend! Check out the before, during and after photo's attached.

09.01.2022 Check out the before and after shots on this makeover in Marjorie Ave Belmont. Hope it can get the vendors some extra $ at auction time as the garden now looks immaculate!

08.01.2022 This was a great result on a makeover in Christies Road Leopold. Have converted the frontyard from one of the worst in the street to one of the best according to the owners who are very happy now. Andrea and Graham were lovely to work for. Gave me plenty of ice water on the hot days and coffees in-between to keep me going. Very proud of my work here and a big thanks to Mudge who did a great job on the paving as usual. Love his work. Mudge the magnificent!

05.01.2022 Ex display home in Armstrong Creek that needed a makeover. Old synthetic turf and dividing screens out, new edging, smaller garden bed along house and new turf in. Beautiful transformation and now ready to go on the market. Wishing Samantha & Luke all the very best with the pending sale and I hope you get the price your hoping for. It was a pleasure working for you.

03.01.2022 Absolutely wrapped with the final result and look of this makeover in Dorothy Avenue Belmont that I completed this week. This was a lot of work (check out the before photos!) but the elderly owner hasnt been in good health and hasnt touched the garden in years besides the friendly neighbour giving it a mow every now and again. I hope it inspires him to get some work done on the house now.

02.01.2022 Thanks Alex & Rhys........oh and baby Edward (Ted) + Lucy (your pooch) for allowing me and Sam to makeover your side garden in Leopold. What a transformation.......came up an absolute treat! Get your Facebook friends to check out the before, during and after photos and tell them it was only finished today. Really appreciated you shouting lunch too.......Chicken and Avo P? (cant remember the bread but it was delicious) and a Cricketers Arms Lager to wash it down with. Fantastic family to do some work for.

01.01.2022 A bit of a different frontyard makeover request this week from the owners (Robert and Sofia) in Corio. No garden beds, all rocks and enough parking space for 2 cars. The job came together really well and from now on they will have easy access to the footpath at the front of the house.
