Stone stairs, terracing, garden beds, paths and edge work. One crew takes the yard from slope to finished — the wall, the levels, the stairs and the beds in a single continuous job, not three trades arguing over a string line.
We're not a planting and lawn-mowing business. We're the crew that builds the stone, the stairs, the levels and the structure — so a planter can come in later and just plant. Or you can.
The most expensive part of a backyard project is the gap between trades. Earthworks crew leaves a slope. Wall crew comes in. They argue about level. Wall crew leaves. Landscaper turns up. There's another argument. Owner mediates. Budget bleeds out the sides.
We do the wall, the stairs, the path and the bed-edges in one continuous job. One crew, one set of pegs, one understanding of how the yard's going to drain when it rains. The result is cheaper because there's no overlap, and better because nothing falls between teams.
Bring a sketch — even a phone snap of a Pinterest board. We'll walk the block with you and tell you what's actually buildable on your slope, soil and budget.

We do the wall, the dig, the clearing and the clean-up — all in-house, no subbies.
No — we're the build crew, not the designer. We'll happily talk through ideas, suggest materials, and tell you what's buildable on your slope. If you want a full design, we can refer you to landscape designers we've worked with around the Hawkesbury / BMs.
Generally no. We do the hardscape (walls, stairs, paths, bed edges, soil prep), then either you plant, or a planting crew comes in. We can prep the beds with the right soil mix and drainage so whoever plants has the easiest possible job.
Sandstone (mostly Parklea), besser/link-block, treated pine & hardwood sleepers, gravel and exposed-agg concrete for paths. Bring a material preference or let us suggest what suits your block and budget.
Often, yes. Failed sleeper walls, slipping steps, no drainage behind retained beds — common stuff. We'll walk it with you and tell you straight up what's salvageable and what needs replacing.
