Garden design does not
need to be expensive
Designing your dream garden does not
need to be an expensive exercise. The team
at The Outdoor Space can design your dream
garden for as little as $400 for a 1000m2 section
producing a colour hand drawn design.
“Clients may have ideas of what they’d like
or none at all and we can come up with some
great suggestions,” says owner of The Outdoor
Space, Aaron Bartlett.
The arrival of spring is lawn time, whether
it is seed, hydro seed or ready lawn. Book
now to avoid disappointment. Or if you do
not have time for lawn maintenance they can
lay artificial grass which is becoming more
popular, looks like the real thing and saves
costs such as water to irrigate, fertilisers and
chemicals and gives you more time to enjoy
relaxing in you outdoor space.
When putting in a lawn think about
irrigation to keep it green in summer. The
Outdoor Space team can design and install
fully automatic systems which pop up in lawns,
drip irrigation
or micro spray
along with
separate watering
to vegetable
gardens and
glasshouses.
All watering
systems have a
controller or can
be connected to WiFi.
Spring is also a good time to think about
your vegetable garden. Raised gardens are
perfect and easy to maintain.
“We love the gardens built with macrocarpa
to any size, shape or height. We screw them
together, router the edges and fill with soil and
compost - and can even plant the vegetables,”
says Aaron.
Fire pits and fires are a popular feature in
an outdoor space. Fire pits are a cheaper and a
custom-designed concrete block fire pit, lined
with fire bricks looks great. A timber top can
be added so it can double as an outdoor coffee
table.
If you would like something bigger they can
put in wood and gas outdoor fires, either a
custom build or install the likes of Trendz or
Flare fires, cladding them in stonework for a
unique look.
The staff at The Outdoor Space love new
challenges and enjoy bringing clients’ ideas
to life including paving, irrigation, lawns,
planting, fences, pergolas, water features,
outdoor fires and fire pits, raised planters,
decks, stonework, brick and blockwork,
artificial grass, outdoor kitchens and garden
sheds.
