LANDSCAPING MADE EASY
Our focus on developing systems and processes means your journey with Groundcover Landscaping will be straightforward and stress-free. We also provide a two-year guarantee of our workmanship with our seven-point plan.
A refreshing dose of
Utmost Professionalism
We work with leading architects and designers to bring your vision to life and pride ourselves on getting your landscaping project done right first time. It comes from our team’s passion for delivering beautiful projects for you to enjoy.
Decks and pergolas
Designed, constructed and orientated correctly, decks and pergolas are a great way to extend your outdoor living space, while adding definition to your backyard. Synonymous with New Zealand outdoor living, decks and pergolas create a functional and aesthetically pleasing area to serve your family, while transforming your space. If you’re thinking about designing a custom-built area, ask us how we work with our proven design partners to enhance your home and garden.
Paving
Paving is a great way to transform tired and often bland outdoor areas. As part of your hard-scaping, paving can be used to create a path, set out your pergola and deck, or add texture to your landscape. Whether your pavers are natural stone or concrete, they provide a versatile and durable addition to your space. Every paving project is different, and there are many considerations to create a timeless garden. Explore the opportunities available by booking your onsite consultation.
Raised gardens and planter boxes
Transform your garden by adding raised garden beds or planter boxes into your landscape. They can be as creative or as understated as you like, we’re only enclosed by your imagination (and fence line). With the ability to be any size or shape you like, we can create a raised garden bed that elevates your landscape, building new or incorporating them into your current layout.
Fencing and retaining
Get the most out of your outdoor area, while adding to the overall look, feel and security of your home with a well-designed fence. Providing quality workmanship, and design options to suit your property and budget, our experienced staff can create a fence to define your boundaries or partition your section. We can build durable retaining walls that are both attractive and practical, and can increase the usable area of your section. Whether we’re breaking boundaries, or creating them, our customer focused approach means we will work with you to deliver what your property needs.
Garden edging and planting
Garden edging is a great way to enhance the overall aesthetic of your garden. Create a sense of structure and uniformity in your outdoor area by installing edging made with pavers or concrete. Planting choices can’t be underestimated, and we can offer advice and recommendations to suit the maintenance level you are after. We collaborate with landscape designers who provide planting plans if you have a large scale planting project.

We recently had a small landscaping project completed by Groundcover. We found the firm excellent to deal with from start to finish - they listened to what we wanted, had helpful suggestions, gave a clear plan of works including times to complete and costings. They stuck to schedule, took care of our existing planting and completed the job to budget, on time and to a high standard. I have no hesitation in recommending them and would gladly use this firm again.

The team at Groundcover Landscaping were professional, friendly and easy to have working around our home. They were flexible which was important for a shift worker. From the beginning they had great ideas, alternative options and advice. I would highly recommend Graeme and his team. Thank you.

I am very happy with the work that Graeme and his team have done on my yard. The new lawn is starting to come through and my winter vegetables are in. The lime chip is great and brightens up an otherwise dark area of the property. This is not the first time I have used Groundcover, they built my pergola as well, which is awesome. Thank You.

We have just built a new home and the landscaping needed to be completed to finish up. We were very impressed with the Groundcover Landscaping team. Right from the first meeting to the finished result we had a great experience. The communication was excellent, the team were on time and finished in the agreed timeline. There was good attention to detail and we love the results. I would highly recommend this company for your landscaping ventures.

I would (and have) recommended Graeme and his team for landscaping. I am delighted with my back garden - this area had been a real headache for me, overgrown vege patch which never looked good for too long - now I have two great vege bins; one herb and one vege with a green belt in the middle. I am really delighted.

I am very pleased with the realignment and the tiling, everyone who passes by gives their opinion and 100% approves! I was very impressed with your boys. I worked a lot with young men in the years of uni and secondary school teaching. I was particularly impressed with Luke's quiet leadership skills and his ability to listen to clients. Your workers do you proud. I will be more than happy to pass your firm's name on to others who may be looking for similar work to be done.

I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for the wonderful service and advise throughout our landscaping project. We would especially like to pass on our thanks to Simon and Ben for the fantastic work they did in rather trying weather conditions on most days!!! Their expertise, attention to detail and their friendliness made it a pleasure to have them here. I know Jack (my Husband) particular enjoyed working for (!!!) them. We found the whole experience very professional, well informed and solutions readily given when required. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to future clients. We are absolutely thrilled with the end result. It gives us great pleasure viewing our stamp on our home. We feel that at last it is truly our place now thanks to you and your wonderful team. Can you please pass on our personal thanks to Simon and Ben it was a pleasure working with them.

Morrinsville, July 2020
Our landscape designer brought us together with Groundcover to implement our landscaping plan in a staged manner. Groundcover outlined the work in components so that tasks could be undertaken over time. Graeme, Paul & the rest of the Groundcover Team were always pleasant, clear communicators and careful in their work. They helpfully suggested a number of ``tweaks`` to the design. Luke's brick edging is a work of art. While our garden is a work in progress, Groundcover has been a key player in what will be a beautifully landscaped section.

Beerescourt, August 2020
We moved to a new property with an old garden and not much more. We wanted to put a pool in and redevelop the garden area, along with an outdoor living space. Our pool company recommended getting Groundcover to come and quote the job for us. We chose them as it was quite a large job and they showed a good understanding of what we wanted to achieve and could provide a large variety of skills allowing them to be able to do all the work required (tiling, building, fencing, pool shed, decking, seating etc!!). They communicated extremely well throughout the project and were easy to deal with. The end result is exactly what we wanted. We found the team professional, timely, friendly and easy to work with. They were great to bounce ideas off and would often find the solution for a space or idea I had and turn it into a fantastic end product.

Graeme and the Groundcover Landscaping crew have helped us on a number of occasions to achieve great things in our properties. From re-shaping outdoor areas, to tidying hedge lines and offering excellent planting advice for our new build, we have always found Groundcover Landscaping totally professional and valuable.<br />
On top of the great work we have received, the crew are very easy to deal with as they all follow Graeme and Michelle's ``bloodline`` of how to successfully relate to customers by just being the real people they are. Highly recommended.

We had a deck area around the pool which was old and needed to be refreshed. We chose Groundcover because of the testimonials and they seemed to be on the same wave-length as us. Graeme was very friendly, on-time, listened to what we wanted, and then came up with a proposal which looked great on paper, but which was outstanding when finished.

Chedworth, December 2020
I contacted Groundcover after being let down by a previous landscaper, who provided me a plan but did not come up with a quote for the job after months of ringing and emailing and so I decided I needed to look elsewhere.<br />
During the COVID 19 lockdown I did some research and liked the look and story of Groundcover and made contact with them. Graeme and Paul responded straight away. They were happy to give me a quote on the plan. As I had a limited budget, they broke the work up so I was able to do some and not others, which was much appreciated.<br />
The work Groundcover carried out has been very much admired by family, friends and neighbours and I love it.<br />
The Groundcover team have been great to work with and Graeme is very approachable.

We recently enlisted Groundcover Landscaping to ``freshen`` our place up. The gardens and bark were tired and in need of replacement. There were leftover railway sleepers stored on our property so we wanted these to be used to make a feature in one of the gardens. New mowing edging were laid around gardens. Leftover cobbles were laid to extend the utility area around the clothesline and raised vegetable bed. Finally there was a large concrete pad extension to the driveway and around the workshop creating a much cleaner and tidy access way.</p>
<p>Communication with Graeme from the outset was excellent. We always knew who was coming on a given day and what work was being undertaken. The project flowed seamlessly and the work was carried out to a very high standard.</p>
<p>The other team members of Groundcover Landscaping were friendly and professional. They had excellent work ethic and worked tirelessly to get our job done in a timely manner.</p>
<p>We are absolutely thrilled with the results produced by Groundcover Landscaping. Our expectations were exceeded in creating a fresher, more functional, user friendly lifestyle block.</p>
<p>I would not hesitate in recommending Groundcover Landscaping. They are competitively priced and produce outstanding results.</p>
<p>Great work Groundcover Landscaping! Many thanks to all of your amazing team.
