Longview Landscapes provides high-quality landscape construction for residential projects throughout Melbourne, Bayside, and the Mornington Peninsula.
Our team delivers complete outdoor builds, carefully coordinating structure, materials, and living elements to create landscapes that feel resolved, functional, and designed to last.
The structure of your landscape—everything from foundations to finished surfaces. Our teams handle paving, retaining walls, timber decking, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, water features, and custom stonework. Each element is built with attention to drainage, longevity, and how it integrates with the broader landscape.
The living elements that complete the space. We handle site preparation, grading, irrigation systems, planting, and turf installation. Our horticulturists work alongside construction teams to ensure plants are positioned correctly, soil conditions are right, and irrigation is designed for the specific plantings and site conditions.
Landscape construction is most successful when structure and planting are considered together.
Our team delivers both hardscape and softscape works as part of a coordinated build process — ensuring levels, drainage, materials, and planting are resolved from the outset. This integrated approach allows landscapes to be constructed efficiently, perform reliably, and mature as intended over time.
By managing the full scope of construction, we maintain consistency and quality across every element of the outdoor space.
We begin with a thorough site visit to understand your property, discuss your vision, and assess existing conditions. This includes evaluating soil type, drainage, access, and any site-specific considerations that will inform the design and construction approach.
Working with you and any architects or designers involved, we develop detailed plans and specifications. We handle all council permit applications, engineering requirements, and coordinate with relevant authorities to ensure approvals are in place before construction begins.
Our teams prepare the site through excavation, grading, and installation of drainage systems. This phase establishes the foundation for all subsequent work, ensuring proper levels, structural integrity, and water management throughout your landscape.
We build your landscape through coordinated phases: hardscaping elements like retaining walls and paving, followed by softscaping including irrigation, planting, and turf installation. Our in-house teams manage all trades directly, maintaining quality and timeline control.
We complete finishing touches, conduct thorough quality checks, and walk you through your completed landscape. This includes care instructions for plantings, system operations, and maintenance guidance to ensure your landscape performs well long-term.
The following FAQs address common questions about residential landscape construction, including scope of works, construction processes, timelines, and site considerations.
They are intended to provide clarity on how landscape construction is delivered across Melbourne, Bayside, and the Mornington Peninsula.
Landscape construction includes all physical works required to build an outdoor space. This can involve site preparation, excavation, drainage, retaining walls, paving, decking, planting, irrigation, and final detailing. Each project is delivered as a coordinated build rather than a series of isolated tasks.
Yes. We deliver both hardscape and softscape construction as part of a single, integrated process. This ensures structural elements, planting, and finishes are aligned from the outset, resulting in a cohesive and durable landscape.
Landscape design focuses on planning, layout, and material selection. Landscape construction is the delivery phase, where those plans are translated into a built outcome. Because we also design landscapes, our construction work is informed by practical build knowledge and site conditions.
Yes. We regularly construct landscapes from designs prepared by architects or external landscape designers. We review all documentation carefully to ensure buildability, structural integrity, and alignment with site conditions before construction begins.
Yes. Drainage and groundworks are a critical part of landscape construction and are addressed early in the build process. Proper water management and site preparation ensure the long-term performance of both hardscape and planting.
We deliver landscape construction projects across the Mornington Peninsula, Melbourne’s inner suburbs, and Bayside locations including Toorak, Brighton, and surrounding areas.
