Handcrafted Rock Custom Garden

Integrated Expertise

From concept to creation, every project is led with precision and passion. I personally design your garden, collaborating with trusted skilled professionals such as earth-movers when needed.

This streamlined approach ensures quality, creativity, and consistency at every stage of your project.

One-Stop Service

Unlike most designers, I also source the plants myself - and plant them for you. That means no searching for the right plants, chasing suppliers or juggling contractors.

With Up The Valley Path, everything is arranged from start to finish, so you step straight into a garden ready to enjoy.

If you’re looking for custom elements, I can also draw from my range of handcrafted garden décor or design something completely unique to suit your space. This makes your outdoor area not only functional, but one-of-a-kind.

Frequently Asked Questions

What influences the cost of a landscape design project in Brisbane?

Costs depend on site complexity, size, materials (e.g. stone, lighting, irrigation), and level of detail. Each design is tailored to your lifestyle and budget.

Can my garden project be phased to suit my budget?

Absolutely. Many clients choose a staged approach - starting with the most-used spaces and expanding over time.

What’s included in design fees?

Depending on scope: initial concepts, planting plans, hardscape layouts, lighting and irrigation schematics, and detailed 3D visualisations.

Do you supply and install plants?

Yes. Unlike most Brisbane landscape designers, I personally grow, source, and install your plants - ensuring the highest quality and perfect fit for your design.

Who manages the build?

I personally manage and complete much of the construction. For heavy machinery or specialist work, I engage trusted local contractors under my full supervision.
