The service

More than planting a few shrubs

Soft landscaping brings life, colour and character to an outdoor space, creating a natural environment that suits your home and how you live in it. Moss Gardens provides soft landscaping for homes across Sydney’s Northern Beaches, North Shore and Eastern Suburbs.

Whether you are building a new garden, renovating an existing landscape or refreshing tired beds, we deliver tailored solutions that improve both the look of your garden and its health as it matures. Every project is planned so the space stays practical, attractive and easy to look after.

What’s included

Tailored to the garden in front of us

Every property has its own style, conditions and maintenance needs. We take the time to understand what you want before recommending planting and materials, so the garden looks right on completion and keeps thriving as it grows in.

  • New garden planting
  • Mulching
  • Turfing and new lawn installation
  • Soil levelling and preparation
  • Garden edging
  • Plant removal and replacement
  • Garden bed rejuvenation
  • Soil improvement and conditioning

We choose plants and materials to suit your soil, your sunlight and how much maintenance you want. A lush tropical garden, a low maintenance native landscape, or a modern setting with structured planting. Whatever suits the house and the way you use the space.

How it works

From first look to finished garden

No guesswork and no surprises. You know what is happening at each stage.

1

We walk the garden

We look at the soil, the light, the drainage and what is already growing, then talk through what you want the space to become.

2

You get a plan and a price

A clear, no obligation quote covering the planting, materials and preparation the job actually needs.

3

We prepare the ground

Levelling, conditioning and improving the soil, plus edging and matting. The part nobody sees, and the part that decides whether plants establish.

4

We plant and finish

Planting at the right spacing, turf laid, mulch down, and the site left clean with the green waste taken away.

Planning it properly lets plants establish, which means healthier growth, less maintenance later, and a garden that keeps improving as it matures.

Why it’s worth it

Beauty and value, without the construction

We work with homeowners, builders and renovators to create gardens that lift street appeal while making outdoor areas more enjoyable to be in.

Unlike major structural landscaping, soft landscaping refreshes a garden using natural elements that soften how a property reads. Healthy lawn, well chosen plants, fresh mulch and properly shaped beds can change the look and feel of a space without any building work.

We focus on the detail, from preparing healthy soil to plant spacing and choosing species that cope with Sydney’s climate, so you are left with a landscape ready to grow.
