New Year, New Backyard!

20 Jan 2017 Landscaping

New Year, New You? 

Meh. 

Performing a little backyard botox is much easier than keeping a kale smoothie down. 

New Year, New Backyard is the kinda resolution we can get behind, so we’ve got 5 quick and easy backyard makeover ideas to help you kick some goals right now. 

1. Summer rehab your lawn

Show your lawn some love after all this heat with a fertiliser boost that will get it back to green in no time. Here's our top 3 lawn fertilisers. 

So dead that no amount of fertiliser will bring it back from the brink? Replace struggling areas with new turf, prepped with our famous Turf Underlay to give it the best shot (it’s produced on site with our secret herbs and spices, and Landscapers LOVE it). Agturf are our go-to for great turf!

2. Top up garden beds

Throw a layer of fresh new mulch, woodchip, or decorative pebble onto your gardens beds to tidy them up and give them new life. 

3. Freshen up pathways

Pebble, gravel, and dust driveways will erode or wash away over time, so top them up with a fresh new layer and they will look as good as new. Go one extra, and add some Natural Stone Stepping Stones for a completely new, modern look. 

4. Give garden beds an edge

Makeover gardens with a new Bush Rock or Sandstone Rock edging. Pssst! If you buy 2 pallets of Bush or Sandstone Rock, you can get another for half price (that’s $137.50 for 3 pallets). 

5. Make a rock feature

Create a natural feature out big beautiful boulders. Have kids? Pick a Bush Rock with holes, crevices and moss and you also have yourself a fairy garden.  We also like Feature Rocks because they mean less mowing or less weeding ;)

Any questions? Give us a call on 02 4964 1320, or pop into the yard for a browse. 

See you in the yard to kick some backyard goals this year!
