Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Nov 09, 2009 5:13 pm Hi there, I know this is the wrong board to post in but I thought I'd try anyways. I need a Landscape plan to satisfy Maroondah Council for a new house in Croydon, Vic. Does anyone know a good cheap Landscaper at all? I've had quotes up to $1400 I was hoping to not spend over $500. Thanks in advance! James Re: Please help me, I need a Landscape Plan. 2Nov 09, 2009 9:27 pm It depends on what has to be done. Initially I spent around $800 for planting schedule, retaining walls and a fence and then $600 for amendments thanks to a mistake the builder did with positioning of the house relative to the setbacks and general comments from the council. After talking to a few landscape designers found on the Internet and recommended by others I went with Eco Design -- nice guys. They are Sydney-based but all communication was done over the Internet. An important thing to ask all designers is to ask about THE TOTAL cost to produce a design including 1, 2, 3, 4, GST and any allowances. Most of designers had a hidden bucket of 3 hours of allowances at $250 per hour that would to the initial $600 quote quite unappealing. ... built a Promenade with Clarendon. viewtopic.php?f=31&t=25104 20-10-09 - excavation and piering completed ... 12-04-10 - Basins fixed.
