Full Transformations, Built Right.
Landscaping in Templestowe.
Templestowe has genuinely large blocks, with about 27 per cent of the suburb in the Low Density Residential Zone. It stayed rural far longer than the inner suburbs, its population only 556 in 1911, and Pontville Homestead of the 1840s still stands where the Yarra meets Mullum Mullum Creek. The ground is hilly and landslip is a recognised hazard, so we build to the slope.
What’s Included
Everything Under One Build.
A transformation is rarely one trade.
Gardenscape scopes and delivers the lot as a single coordinated project:
- Retaining walls
- Paving and concreting
- Garden beds and softscapes
- Excavation and site preparation
- Drainage and levelling
- Turf, natural or artificial, to finish
Our Process
Run Like a Major Project.
Site Assessment
We walk the space with you, talk through what you want from it, and look at what is under the surface.
Scope and Quote
A clear written scope and a straight quote. You know exactly what is being built and why.
The Build
Sequenced properly so trades never trip over each other. Honest timelines and clear communication throughout.
Handover
A finished space the brothers put their name behind. Built Right. Built to Last.
Landscaping in Templestowe
Designed for an Established Block.
Planned Around Your Block.
Templestowe rewards a plan that uses the space. The large blocks out in Melbourne’s north east, many of them long established near the Yarra and the Mullum Mullum corridor, leave room for the lot: a lawn for the kids, a paved area for the table, room to entertain and the structure to tie it all together, often with mature trees worth designing around. The heavy clay and the gentle grade on many sites mean drainage, retaining and base work cannot be an afterthought. We design for how you actually live in the space: clean zones that flow from the house to the garden, retaining and levels that turn a sloping block into usable ground, planting suited to family life among established gardens, and drainage built to handle a Melbourne downpour. From a full rear garden to a front that lifts the whole street, one accountable team runs the project from concept to completion. We also build across Doncaster and Doncaster East, and lay the lawn to suit through turf installation in Templestowe.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know
Do you take on the larger gardens common in Templestowe?
Yes. A lot of our Templestowe work is generous, established family blocks where the whole outdoor space is in play at once. Scale rewards careful planning and sequencing, which is exactly where one accountable team running the project earns its keep across a bigger garden.
Can you work around mature, established gardens in Templestowe?
Absolutely. Many Templestowe blocks carry mature trees and settled planting worth keeping, so we design the new garden around what stays, protect root zones during the build, and tie fresh structure and planting into the established setting rather than starting from bare ground.
How do you manage the heavy clay soil and drainage in Templestowe?
We plan for it from the start. The clay common across the area holds water and moves, so we set drainage, base work and the right levels before anything is built, so the finished garden stays sound through a wet Melbourne winter.
How long does a landscaping project take in Templestowe?
It depends on scope, and blocks here are large enough that scope varies widely. Templestowe is hilly with landslip a recognised hazard across Manningham, so earthworks and retaining get resolved first. We give you an honest timeline once the levels and the ground conditions are understood.

Thank you the Team at Garden Scape, they did a fantastic job with my front yard. Did exactly what I asked them to do and even cleaned afterwards. Wouldn’t have known they were even there. I will be using them again and recommending them to others.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently hired Garden Scape to maintain and weeding my garden, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with their work. From the first consultation, the team was professional, punctual, and attentive to my needs. They took the time to understand the layout of my garden and discussed a maintenance plan that suited both the space. First visit, the team arrives on time, fully equipped, and works efficiently. They handle everything from mowing the lawn, pruning trees and hedges, weeding, fertilising, and general garden tidy-up. I’ve also noticed how careful they are with existing plants and garden features—nothing gets damaged or neglected. What sets them apart is their eye for detail and the pride they take in their work. Communication has also been excellent. Any changes in scheduling or extra requests are handled smoothly and professionally. Overall, Garden Scape has made garden upkeep stress-free for me, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality garden services.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
