Project Overview

We were approached by our client, whose Richmond property was undergoing an extensive refurbishment, including the addition of a new basement. During this two-year renovation, the garden and surrounding areas became neglected and were used as storage for construction materials, leaving the landscape and driveway in a severely dilapidated condition.

Our role was to perform a complete uplift and rejuvenation of the outdoor spaces, removing all old or damaged elements and replacing them with high-quality, modern features. The client’s vision was to restore and enhance the outdoor environment, creating a functional and luxurious space that complemented the newly refurbished property.

This ambitious project included installing a porcelain patio, composite decking, and a sunken seating area with a firepit, as well as integrating premium amenities such as an outdoor kitchen, automated pergola, hot tub, and sauna. Additionally, the driveway required a full overhaul with a new resin surface, while the garden needed fresh planting and a new lawn to bring life and vibrancy back to the space.

The brief emphasised quality, precision, and attention to detail, ensuring the reinstated landscape was not only functional but also visually striking. The project also needed to be completed within a tight timeline of 8 weeks, requiring meticulous planning and efficient execution.

Scope of Work

The following elements were removed, upgraded, and reinstalled

  • Porcelain Patio: Clean, modern finish for outdoor living areas.
  • Millboard Composite Decking: Durable and low-maintenance decking solutions.
  • Sunken Seating with Firepit: Stylish and functional for entertainment.
  • Outdoor Kitchen: Fully equipped for alfresco dining and gatherings.
  • Automated Pergola: Smart, adjustable shading system.
  • Hot Tub & Sauna: Luxurious additions for relaxation and wellness.
  • Resin Driveway: Smooth, durable, and visually appealing surface.
  • Planting & Lawn: Fresh greenery to bring life and vibrancy to the space.

Project Challenges

  • Storage Impact: The site had been heavily utilised as a construction storage area, requiring thorough clearing and preparation before starting the project.
  • Tight Timeline: A deadline of 8 weeks to complete all works, including weather considerations and coordinating multiple trades.

Outcome

Despite the tight timeline and site challenges, the project was completed within the stipulated 8 weeks. The reinstated landscape and driveway not only met but exceeded the client’s expectations.

Our client was particularly impressed with the seamless integration of luxury features like the firepit, automated pergola, and outdoor kitchen, creating a space perfect for relaxation and entertaining.
