Attention to detail and craftsmanship are at the heart of everything we do, ensuring that each project meets your needs and enhances your outdoor space.
We specialise in transforming outdoor spaces by bringing your vision to life. From garden features and courtyards to pool areas and driveways, we handle everything from resolving complex drainage issues to reshaping land contours, installing retaining walls, stormwater drains, and water tanks.
Our hardscape construction services include a wide range of installations such as paving, concreting, brick and blockwork, and various types of retaining walls, including log, rock, stack stone, and sandstone. We also expertly install edging, pathways, steps, and other related elements like fencing, gates, screens, and decking.
In addition to hardscape, we excel in soft landscape construction, managing everything from soil preparation and turf installation to planting trees, shrubs, and garden beds. We use quality organic materials and mulches to enhance the beauty and health of your garden and lawn areas.
To complete your landscape, we offer additional features that elevate your outdoor space, including water features, lighting, garden sculptures, pots, and comprehensive irrigation systems. These elements not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also contribute to the functionality of your garden.

Retaining Walls
At Great Yard eScapes, we specialise in constructing high-quality retaining walls that are not only structurally sound but also aesthetically pleasing. Our retaining walls are purpose-built to hold back embankments, manage minor slopes, and support garden features or structures, ensuring both functionality and visual appeal. We also offer the option to incorporate fencing into or behind your retaining walls to enhance your garden’s overall presentation.
Our services include building new retaining walls, as well as repairing or modifying existing ones. Whether you need a minor repair or a complete overhaul, we ensure that the work meets all local council compliance requirements. For walls exceeding 1 meter in height, we can coordinate with engineers to provide the necessary structural integrity and approvals.
We offer a range of retaining wall options to suit different needs and budgets, including:
- Treated Pine and Hardwood Sleeper Walls: These are durable and cost-effective solutions that offer a natural look.
- Brick or Block Walls: Ideal for matching your home’s architecture, these walls can be reinforced with steel and filled with concrete for added strength, with the option of rendering for a polished finish.
- Stack Stone Walls: These offer a visually appealing option that is often more affordable while still providing solid support.
- Sandstone, Rock, and Gabion Walls: For a more rustic or natural appearance, these materials are long-lasting and blend seamlessly with the landscape.
- Concrete Sleepers and Formed Concrete Walls: These provide maximum durability and are ideal for heavy-duty applications.
At Great Yard eScapes, we are confident in our ability to design and build a retaining wall that meets your specific requirements, complements your property, fits your budget, and stands the test of time.
Excavation & Drainage
At Great Yard eScapes, we specialise in precise excavation work, even in tight spaces where access is limited. Our skilled team is equipped to handle small to medium excavation and landscape demolition projects, utilising machinery that can operate in areas as narrow as 750 mm wide. For more extensive excavation needs, we collaborate with trusted sub-contractors to ensure the job is completed efficiently and to the highest standards.
We take pride in every project we undertake, ensuring careful execution while maintaining a clean and organised job site. Our commitment to meticulous work reflects our dedication to both the project and our clients.
Proper drainage is a crucial component of any landscape. It’s often an overlooked aspect, but effective drainage systems are essential to prevent water-related damage. Without adequate drainage, issues such as collapsing retaining walls, sinking pavers, and shifting foundations can occur, leading to costly repairs.
Great Yard eScapes offer comprehensive drainage solutions to address any existing issues and prevent future problems We repair defective drainage systems and install a variety of new systems tailored to your needs, including pool drainage, drainage pits, strip drains, ag lines, ground pits, and more.
Don't let drainage issues undermine the integrity of your landscape. Contact Great Yard eScapes today to discuss your excavation and drainage needs and ensure your outdoor space remains beautiful and functional for years to come.
Paving & Decking
Great Yard eScapes is equipped to meet your needs for Paving and Decking solutions and enhance your outdoor space with quality workmanship that stands the test of time.
Paving has become an essential element for creating durable, hard surfaces in driveways, swimming pool surrounds, walkways, and feature areas. At Great Yard eScapes, we have extensive experience installing various types and styles of pavers, customised to suit each project’s unique requirements.
One example of our work includes the precise installation of pavers around swimming pools. For the coping edge, we use a strong tile adhesive to secure the pavers around concrete pools. As the paving extends away from the pool, we can install pavers in either square or diagonal patterns, typically on a sand bed with a solid road base or concrete foundation.
We manage a wide range of paving projects, from comprehensive landscape designs to smaller paving jobs, including repairs and extensions on both new and existing properties. No job is too big or small; we apply the same level of care and craftsmanship to all our work.
Our decking solutions are equally versatile. We offer decking with hardwood slats or treated pine, supported by a treated pine structure to ensure longevity and resilience against the elements.
Whether you need paving, decking, or a combination of both, Great Yard eScapes is equipped to meet your needs. Contact us today to discuss your project, and let us help you
