25.01.2022 All the detailed stonework at eastern view project finished... Including a new staircase on the south side of the house..... Phew what a mission! Now just to tidy the place up, reinstate turf, install path toppings, plant plants and mulch....

24.01.2022 A bit more progress at the other Eastern view job. It just keeps growing.... Were now cladding the in ground water tank with custom cut mudstone to achieve a dry stack look. Me and dave from @golandscaping will be tied up on this for a little while longer than Id anticipated by the looks.... Worse places to work I guess! #stone #stonework #stonegarden #stonesteps #stonemasonry #stonecladding #stoneseat #cappingstone #landscapeideas #landscapedesign #landscaping #

23.01.2022 Well that took longer than anticipated! Fireplace and courtyard finally finished after a myriad of tricky details like finding a match for the existing tiles ( got some close then had to do artistry get perfect match!), finding matching bricks to rebuild curved entrance steps, fixing drainage in an old cracked slab with fall that goes in weird directions and battling the weather when trying to do the rendering to name a few! finished product is worth it though. l cant wait to see it fired up! #outdoorfireplace #tuscanvilla #spanishvilla #spanishcourtyard #terracotta #outdoorroom #spanishhomes #terracottatiles #woodfire #fireplace #courtyard @ Saint Kilda East, Victoria, Australia

23.01.2022 Pollished off stage two of a little garden upgrade at Eastern view today.... the breif was to build two sets of stone steps and widen usable area near tennis court while retaining existing vegetation and having new work look like it has been there for years and fit with existing sandstone wall. The stone bench seat was a nice little addition too. Just need to wash of the marking paint from a few of the rocks now! As always it was awesome working on this one with the legend Dave from @golandscaping ! #gardenideas #stonesteps #stonework #greatteam #landscaping #gardenpath #stoneseat #landscapingideas #benchseat #gardenseat #stonemasonry #stonmason #oldstone

20.01.2022 Smashing out a simple pizza oven at home while Ive been forced to wait on my preferred excavator contractor for the next eastern view project I just started.... Id much rather be ploughing on with the new job but at least Ill be cooking epic pizza in a week or so! #woodfiredpizza #pizzaoven #woodoven #fillingintime #homeimprovement #rustic #yummypizza #landscapinggreatoceanroad

18.01.2022 What a soggy day! As annoying as it was trying to lay the interior bricks of this outdoor fireplace, the rain really is appreciated! the fireplace is going to be a monster! bricking up front arch and sloped interior once sides have cured enough to support the weight. #outdoorfireplace #spanishvilla #terracotta #workingintherain #landscapinggreatoceanroad #landscapingtorquay #landscaping

17.01.2022 Vegetable garden growing like crazy! #veggiegarden #raisedbedgarden #wickinggarden #wickingbeds #landscapingtorquay #landscapinggreatoceanroad #armstrongcreek #lanscaping #landscapingideas

16.01.2022 first pic is concept sketch of cool outdoor fireplace for the stkilda project. it may or may not have a nook or two on the side for wood storrage... Still in consultation with clients. Either way its really going to bring this once drab part of the patio to life! 2nd shot is of scene as is now and last is of all the mess and destruction needed to achieve the first! #outdoorfireplace #fireplace #spanishvilla #outdoorroom #landscapinggreatoceanroad #lanscaping #landscapingtorquay #landscapingideas #tuscanvilla

15.01.2022 Curved stone steps done! Just need to tidy up and put toppings between lower steps an mulch surrounding garden. The last photo is the pile of wobbly rocks we had to hand split into these regular steps. Time consuming but worth it. Great teamwork again by Tim Forrester Landscapes and @golandscaping ! #goteam #goodresults #stonesteps #gardensteps #stonemasonry #stonework #mudstone #curvedpath #stairway #landscaping #landscapingideas

15.01.2022 Chunky rustic retaining wall with a little nook for firewood weve been working on. Almost wrapped up the stone work on this whole section today. A few hours on Monday and shell be ready to be prepped for planting out and laying turf in front. Stone is honey granite supplied by @transrock_ #stonework #stoneretainingwall #landscapinggreatoceanroad #honeygranite #bigrocks #aireysinlet

15.01.2022 I may have been rained off work again but at least this weather is good for the veggies! Happy little plants #raisedbedgarden #wickinggarden #rainyday #happyplants #veggiegarden #landscapinggreatoceanroad #landscaping #armstrongcreek

14.01.2022 I popped by the Hawthorne garden construction project that @golandscaping and I did last year, for @fluxconstruction, to check in on the irrigation system we installed. The stunning house was designed by @editionoffice and the garden designed by @eckersleygardenarchitecture is looking awesome a year on. Such a fun project to be involved in! #crazypaving #landscapingtorquay #landscapinggreatoceanroad #armstrongcreeksmallbusiness #geelonglandscaping

13.01.2022 Some progress shots from me and Daves ( @golandscaping ) latest project at eastern view. Job purpose is to clad old concrete tank to make it a feature instead of an eyesore. Weve custom cut the side cladding, drop face capping stones and pavers from yellow mudstone. The pale crazy pave is Indian sandstone which well blend back into the yellow mudstone in the center. Should look sweet I reckon. #crazypave #mudstone #stonework #stone #stonemasonry #drystonewall #stonefeature #landscaping #stonecladding #altartothegods

09.01.2022 Freshly hand split yellow mudstone steps for stage 3 of another little @timforresterlandscapes and @golandscaping project at Eastern View ready to roll!

02.01.2022 Rubbish photos cause of the glare but you can kind of make out that were almost done with the grand staircase at eastern view. Another week of laying capping stones on the wing walls and the stonework will be finished.

01.01.2022 Starting the year back at a job in Saint Kilda where i built a massive bespoke oven and bbq area along with losts of brick paving and planting about 4 years ago. Paving and oven have settled in nicely! This time round Im going to build the lovely clients a rad outdoor fireplace among other tasks. fireplace is going along the rendered wall in the last photo.
