Frequently asked questions for Hard Landscaping

Powdercoated aluminium and Colorsteel are the best choices if you want to avoid regular painting or staining. Both materials withstand coastal environments exceptionally well, providing clean lines and sturdy security with minimal upkeep.

Yes, you get complete peace of mind because all glass balustrades are custom-built to comply strictly with New Zealand safety standards. They provide a secure barrier around pools, decks, and balconies without blocking your views.

Your choice depends on your budget and desired look. Treated pine is highly cost-effective and versatile, while premium hardwoods like Kwila and Garapa offer superior natural durability. If you want to skip staining altogether, high-quality composite decking is an excellent alternative.

Absolutely. Custom garden boardwalks and bridges are designed specifically to traverse sensitive, sloped, or wetland areas safely. This protects the underlying soil from damage while giving you dry, stable foot access right through the year.

Retaining walls up to 1.5 metres are generally council-compliant and do not require formal consent, provided they aren't supporting extra weight like a driveway or building above them. If your section requires a taller wall, you can easily be referred to a specialist engineer and have the structure built directly from their certified plans.

Timber retaining walls offer a classic, natural aesthetic that blends seamlessly into garden environments at a highly cost-effective price point. Concrete block walls are generally selected when you need maximum structural strength for very steep inclines or heavy-duty load support.

Yes, you can save time and ensure a structurally sound setup by utilising a professional installation service for your pre-purchased pergola kit sets. This includes popular louvred systems from major suppliers like Trade Tested.

It depends on how you use your space. A pergola adds beautiful vertical scale and can support climbing vines or louvres over a deck. A gazebo gives you a fully roofed, permanent sanctuary from both rain and sun—perfect for a spa pool. Shade sails offer a modern, flexible, and cost-effective way to get high UV protection over large areas like patios and lawns.

An exposed aggregate finish mixed with decorative coloured stones is highly recommended. It looks premium, handles heavy vehicle traffic effortlessly, and provides a textured, non-slip surface that is incredibly safe in wet weather.

Your new surfaces can be configured with advanced, built-in drainage solutions. By integrating slot drains and soak pits directly into the layout, rainwater clears away fast, keeping your outdoor entertainment areas dry and fully usable.
