BEFORE & AFTER
The client originally approached us at Pool Spa Life Expo with the dream of installing a pool. After meeting them on site, what was a more pressing priority was how much the growing family had become to loathe their existing backyard. The paving was abundant with ants nests and w**ds, the lawn had been dug up by their energetic dog and the extensive retaining took centre stage to an under utilised and neglected outdoor space.
Once site measures were taken and sketches developed we realised the large upper garden could be converted into a raised seating area/ seasonal fire-pit featuring a custom curved bench seat. This extends the yard’s capacity and entertaining potential while still future proofing the space for their desired plunge pool at a later date.
The unit paving has been upgraded to a w**d and pest free honed concrete, retaining walls have been softened with layers of shrubbery and trellis greenery, while the updated side path can now serve as secondary entry with its boardwalk approach framed with feature pots and kitchen herb garden.
Photos were taken before the forgiving synthetic turf was laid to serve the boys’ ongoing cricket Australia aspirations and pooch play.
After our final clean, The space was literally met with tears of joy and appreciation from the client… all under budget.
This why we do what we do. 🥹
