We see these mistakes all the time – here’s how we make sure they never happen to you.

There’s nothing worse than spending time and money on a landscape that doesn’t last or doesn’t work. Don’t let your project become another Sydney landscape construction project that goes off track.

Here are the most common landscaping mistakes we encounter, and what we do differently:

1. Poor Planning
   Jumping straight into planting or paving without a solid design often leads to rework. At Envision Landscapes, every project starts with a detailed plan that you are across every detail of, so you can be sure your finished product is what you signed on for, and nothing else.
   
   

2. Inadequate Drainage
   Skimping on drainage can ruin your garden and damage your home. We assess your site’s runoff, soil, and slope to design a proper solution that will work and last. 
   
   

3. High-Maintenance Design
   If you’re time-poor, we won’t give you a garden that demands daily work. We design for real-life maintenance needs.
   
   

4. Wrong Plants for the Site
   Climate, soil, sun exposure… we consider it all. We only recommend plants that thrive in your specific conditions, and with decades of experience designing gardens for the Sydney region, we know what works where.
   
   

5. Compromising on Materials
   Cheap materials rarely last. Envision Landscapes has partnerships with leading material suppliers to help you choose durable, sustainable options that will look great for years.
