Matt and the team were fantastic. They transformed our front garden from boring to fabulous and our backyard into a tranquil space we want to spend time in. Matt was upfront with costs and listened to our ideas. He included us every step of the way, which allowed us to fully trust the process. I highly recommend Stix n Stones for your landscaping needs.

Matt and his team did an awesome job renovating our front garden and finishing our part-done rear. He had great ideas and really listened to what we wanted to achieve. So pleased with the result and would be happy to recommend. Nothing was too much trouble and, unlike other experiences, he kept in touch, from agreeing to proceed and throughout the job, to ensure it was on the mark for us. Thanks Matt, Tim, Jason, and the rest of the team!
