Landscaping Design
Our landscaping design service creates tailored outdoor spaces combining aesthetics with functionality. We specialise in site-specific plans that maximise usability while incorporating sustainable elements like wicking beds and water-efficient irrigation. Clients receive detailed working drawings to ensure accurate costing and construction alignment with their vision.
Excavations
We provide precision excavation services using compact machinery suited to residential and commercial sites. Our 1-tonne excavator navigates tight spaces while larger equipment handles extensive projects. Services include trenching, site cuts, and hole boring, with safety protocols ensuring compliance with underground utility regulations across Geelong and surrounding regions.
Retaining Walls
Custom retaining walls and terraced gardens enhance property aesthetics and functionality. We construct walls using timber, concrete, steel, or masonry materials, incorporating drainage systems to prevent erosion. Our designs range from small wicking beds to large-scale structures that optimise land use and improve garden usability in coastal environments.
Decking
Timber and composite decking solutions extend living spaces while withstanding coastal climates. We design decks to complement architectural styles, using treated pine subframes for durability. Projects include custom layouts, integrated seating, and lighting to create versatile outdoor entertaining areas that add property value and withstand Geelong's weather conditions.
Steelwork
Custom steel fabrication services create durable outdoor features including fences, arbours, planters, and seating. We design structures to enhance garden aesthetics while ensuring longevity in coastal environments. Projects range from decorative gates to functional cafe furniture, combining artistic elements with structural integrity for both residential and commercial properties.

Prompt response to my enquiry email for garden edging installation and tricky irrigation existing system which was not functioning. On time for quote, Danny was professional and answered all my queries, had pictures of previous work for similar garden edging that I wanted to achieve in my yard. End product exceeded my expectations, reasonably priced and ease of transaction. Will use again for any future needs and highly recommend.

Danny and the team at Natural Gardeners were brilliant. I initially contacted them to get some advice on what I could do with a rotting patio and uninspiring set of garden beds in my back courtyard. Danny made a visit and created a great design to upgrade my backyard. They were able to do so much more with my courtyard than I could have imagined. They provided a total service, pulling apart my old patio and beds and, in there place, constructing a beautiful new deck, a curved-bricked garden bed and additional beds with fantastic redgum sleepers. They installed some of their custom made planter
