Landscaping that begins with local conditions.
From Hawthorn and Kew through Box Hill, Blackburn and Ringwood and out to Lilydale and the Yarra Valley fringe, Melbourne's east covers period homes, post-war family blocks, leafy bush suburbs and new townhouse developments. Heavy clay, mature canopy and sloping ground are the common threads, and all three reward careful drainage and level planning.

One team across the landscape
Lochaven can take a project from the first site conversation through design, earthworks, retaining, paving, planting, irrigation and aftercare. Keeping those decisions connected produces a garden that feels resolved rather than assembled in parts.
Do you provide on-site consultations in Melbourne's Eastern Suburbs?
Yes. We begin by confirming the location, scope and timing, then arrange a site visit where the project is a good fit.
Can you work with the existing landscape?
Yes. We assess established trees, useful hardscape, levels and views before recommending what should remain, change or be rebuilt.
