The work we do
What a makeover usually includes
Your quote covers the work your garden needs. A makeover can change the whole space or focus on one area, with the scope agreed on site.
Keep what works, clear the rest
Walk through what you want to retain. Clear agreed overgrowth, unwanted plants and weeds, and take away the green waste from the work.
Prepare the soil and beds
Shape and prepare the garden beds, improve the soil and prepare ground for new lawn where that is part of the plan.
Choose planting for the space
Plan new plants around the garden’s sun, shade and established planting, and how much care you want to give them.
Finish with lawn, edging and mulch
Lay new turf where needed, define the edges and spread mulch. A makeover can focus on planting and beds without replacing your lawn.

Plan around the parts you like
Identify the trees, paths and plants to retain before choosing new beds or lawn. David can plan the changes around how you enter, use and look after the garden.
Getting materials into the garden
Tell us about narrow side passages, stairs or a rear garden reached through the house. Carrying soil, mulch, plants and turf affects the scope and price.
Planning your budget
What does a garden makeover cost?
These typical budgets help you plan. The area is a starting point: clearing, plant choices, access and any new lawn affect the final price. David quotes after seeing the garden.
| Small garden (up to 50 m²) | $5,000 to $15,000 |
|---|---|
| Medium garden (50 to 150 m²) | $15,000 to $30,000 |
| Large garden (over 150 m²) | From $30,000 |
Typical prices, including GST. We confirm the exact price with a free quote on site.
What affects your quote?
- The size of the garden and how much needs clearing
- How many plants, and how mature they are
- Whether new lawn is part of the job
- Access and green waste removal

Another tree service mucked me around all morning with quote appointment changes, so I contacted Festus from Absolute Tree and he quoted over the phone his team turned up and both tree stumps were gone before sunset on the same day at a most reasonable cost. Thanks again.

I was a bit apprehensive about hiring a landscaper after hearing a few horror stories, especially picking someone I’d found online—but I’m so glad I went with Absolute Tree and Garden. David was extremely responsive and even shuffled his schedule to squeeze my job in earlier than expected. The team that came out were friendly, efficient, and thorough—exactly what you’d hope for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Absolute Tree and Garden to anyone.

David and the whole crew at Absolute Tree and Garden Services are fantastic. The work is always done very professionally and safely. The crew are very friendly and respectful. I have used them for many years across multiple properties and the service is always the same - consistently good. I like that they will push back if the request is not going to give you the best result which is great. They turn up on time!! Their rates are very reasonable as well. I fully recommend Absolute Tree and Garden Services! Stuart

David and his team are phenomenal! Our overgrown trees have been pruned to perfection our front garden replanted and it looks gorgeous. Thank you David!
Wendye Vince ·
I could not rate David and his team more highly. They did a first rate job in both my backyard and front yard. Both look fantastic and I could not be happier. David is a genuinely nice guy and very easy to relate and talk to. David’s price was very reasonable for all the work he did and I will definitely be using his services again soon. Highly recommended.

Questions about garden makeovers
Do I need a makeover or a garden restoration?
A makeover changes the planting or layout. A restoration brings your existing garden back into shape with pruning, weeding, feeding and mulch. If most of the garden can stay, a restoration may be enough. David can help you decide at the visit.
Explore garden restorationsDo I need a garden design before getting a quote?
No. Bring your ideas, a few photos you like or simply explain what is not working. David plans the garden with you on site. Our landscape design service is practical planning followed by the work, rather than a separate set of drawn plans.
How our garden planning worksCan I keep established plants and my existing lawn?
Yes, retaining what works is part of the discussion. Tell David which plants and areas matter to you, so the quote accounts for what can stay and what needs changing. New lawn is optional.
Can you make over just a front garden or one area?
Yes. The work can focus on the front garden, backyard or a particular set of beds. Describe the area when you enquire. If you only need new lawn, our turf-laying service may be the closer fit.
Explore turf layingHow long will the makeover take?
It depends on the amount of clearing, preparation and planting, site access and the weather. Discuss the likely duration and scheduling with David once he has seen the garden and the scope is clear.
