moving forwardFrom day one, Landscape Solutions’ underlying strategy to be the ‘landscape partner of choice’ has always been based on best meeting our clients’ landscape needs, identifying where we can excel in our service delivery, and maximising our resources to fulfil our commitment to being ‘your one-stop-shop’ for all external works.
23 years ago, we chose the name Landscape Solutions because it encompassed our business to a tee. We have always had the capabilities, know-how and commitment to deliver the landscape component of any project and over time we’ve grown a formid- able maintenance division too. It’s that same commitment that has made us a regular on the preferred tenderer’s list for the industry’s biggest players.
As our industry continues to evolve, so too must the profile of today’s commercial landscaper. Never a business to rest on our laurels, Landscape Solutions continues to invest in the develop-ment of staff and resources, and we’re also bolstering our range of services too.
With the addition of specialist division - Sportsturf Solutions, we have strengthened our range capabilities and more importantly, are providing customers with an unrivaled level of knowledge and expertise on all aspects of a sportsfield design and construction - ‘from plan to play’.
2015 was another year of steady growth for us with the total number of employees exceeding 350. The year was punctuated with numerous industry awards, most notably ‘Best Commercial Maintenance’ (in NSW and QLD!) as well as receiving the highest recognition we can acheive... ‘Landscape Construction of the Year’ - for our performance on the outstanding Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital in Brisbane.

The long list of distinguished clients already taking advantage of our comprehensive range of landscape and external works services continues to grow as more property managers, facility managers, school bursars and business managers reap the benefits
of engaging a genuine ‘one stop shop’ partner. Landscape Solutions is the only organisation with the capabilities, resources and know-how to
meet your every service need. Save time, save money and enjoy a positive working relationship with a team that shares your
goals and surpasses your expectations.
“your one stop shop”
The role that a ‘functional’ open space plays for students is vital for a healthy school/life balance. “Providing access to a genuine ‘green asset’ requires best practice open space management, site specific programming and evaluation techniques. Along with the obvious aesthetic benefits, our goal is to manage the gardens, grounds and sports fields in such an effective manner that the landscape has the potential to provide further environmental and social rewards such as better health and social outcomes with greater access and use.” - Hamish Inglis, General Manager.
Sports fields don’t get turned out much better than this one. Courtesy of our QLD sports turf specialists, the playing surface at Moreton Bay Central Sports Complex was in immaculate condition for this year’s 2016 NAB Cup Challenge.
“Last year we received a lot of positive feedback from players, staff and spectators commending us on the standard of the surface. This year the lads have outdone themselves to get the field just right - it’s perfect” said State Manager Simon Smith.

Our sports turf crew at Brighton Grammar have put in a huge effort to improve the school’s oval - and it’s come up a treat. In addition to constructing a new wicket table, the outfield has been seeded with
Couch to improve the surface and reduce overall water usage. The result is a first-class oval and cost savings for our client.
Our team has transformed the 18 hole golf course at Wallacia into one of the best golfing destinations in Sydney. Recently the club hosted
the Wallacia Pro Am Event and feedback from our customer and the visiting pros and amateurs was very positive. “The greens are running true and the
fairways are a dream to play from. The course has never been better”
After a season of heavy player traffic, Gosford City Council’s sports fields were in dire need of major renovations. Utilising our specialised topping and
grading machines, Landscape Solutions’ team peeled back the old surface and prepared the grounds before re-turfing the entire facility. The customer
was stoked with the results and amazed that the fields were ready for play only a few short weeks after requesting our services.
