Best landscapers in Cheltenham

Many years ago we purchased a 1950’s cream brick farm house in the hills outside Melbourne. The house was dated and the three acres of gardens overgrown and un-landscaped. It presented a challenging and ongoing project. On the recommendation of friends, we approached James Caink for advice on how to proceed with our dated and neglected property. Since that time, we have maintained a long association with James and call on him for each project. In the weeks prior to the start of each job, James calls to discuss options and make suggestions about the project. He arrives early so that we can address any issues on site before the working day begins. Over the years, we have come to appreciate James’s ability to think laterally when presented by particularly difficult issues. James keeps to budget and, when not delayed by Melbourne’s weather, he keeps to time. This is a great achievement given the size and scope of my gardens. More recently James has fully landscaped the gardens of our brand new build in Sorrento, including, decking a sizeable alfresco area, paving around a large pool and spa area, laying turf and planting the rest of the gardens. The results have been stunning. Key to James approach are the following, 1 High level of organization including meeting schedules, key issue reporting and financial updates 2 Effective planning and anticipation of critical items to maintain the current project’s direction 3 A team dedicated to quality and the overall project’s interests 4 Professional and friendly site presence

Really good job at removing the two large palm trees from my small courtyard. Good cost and cleaned up everything well

We hired Lilly Pilly for a complete demolition and redesign of our front yard and rear courtyard. Work included total demolition of existing site, construction of new timber picket fence (including motorised sliding gate), new driveway, blue stone steppers and patio, new turf yard and complete garden redesign and installation. Rear courtyard was ripped up and replaced with blue stone paving and garden beds. The job was outstanding! Bruno, Laura and the team were great to work with, offered some very valuable insights and executed their work perfectly. We would highly recommend them to others!
