Even though their website claims to do "gardening maintenance" and "projects of any size and budget" they refused to quote retaining walls that we needed replacing as well as a general face lift of our front garden. Not the best potential customer experience.

The team transformed our derelict ex-rental homes' garden into the tranquil scape it is today, full of perfume, colour, bees and butterflies. Its a place where friends gravitate to for lazy afternoon spritz. Am so impressed with the transformation that we have them slated for the landscaping on our next build. Highly recommend!

Ive engaged Adrian to come to my premises to assess a few issues. He did a very thorough inspection of my premises and looked into lots of fine details. He has given me great advises and clear instructions as to what is needed. I find Adrian very knowledgable in his field of expertise, honest, transparent and very helpful. I highly recommend Adrian and his team for their service. They are also an International award company.

The Other Side Landscapes were engaged to build a retaining wall for us before the builder could start building our new home. We were very disappointed with the quality of work and how much longer the job took to what was quoted. After being built the wall was leaking and this was shown after the bricks were cleaned on the house. So, they had to come back and redo all the waterproofing at the back of the wall. Here is the photo showing how it was left when they finished the job second time around.
