At Abode Landscapes, our design service is fully integrated with our construction delivery — meaning your design is built exactly as intended, without the miscommunication that comes from using separate firms.
-
How long does landscaping take in Australia?The timeline for a landscaping project in Sydney depends on its scale. A standard residential backyard project typically takes 4–8 weeks from construction start to completion. Design and planning phases, including council approval where needed, may add an additional 4–12 weeks. Larger commercial or multi-dwelling projects are scheduled as part of the broader construction program and can range from a few months to over a year. We provide clear project timelines at the outset and keep you updated throughout.
