Creating Bespoke Landscapes in Ascot
Step 1: Consultation & Site Visit
We assess your outdoor space, discuss your vision, and provide advice on the best approach for your landscaping project. Sometimes this means going to the design phase.
Creating Bespoke Landscapes in Ascot
Ascot’s got a mix of new homes and older places on sandy ground. We design native gardens that feel relaxed and low-stress—with irrigation, lawn, and planting that suits the house and block. A tidy front yard or well-zoned back garden can make the whole place feel more resolved.
Ascot properties often carry a high standard for their outdoor areas, demanding thoughtful, well-built landscapes. We create native gardens that reflect this, with well-structured layouts, reliable irrigation, and planting choices that feel right for the location. Whether the goal is to soften a newer build or bring fresh life to an older block, we focus on the practical details that make the space usable and attractive.
For your Ascot home, we offer services in building new native gardens or transforming existing yards into something more cohesive. Our approach is never about surface upgrades; it’s a full landscape rethink that makes the most of the block. Whether you need better structure, stronger planting, or just a garden that suits your lifestyle, we bring it all together using healthy native plants, gravel or sleeper elements, and efficient irrigation.
Many people think it’s hard to make a native garden look nice, but nothing could be further from the truth. A well-designed native garden can be stunning and attract birds and wildlife.
We specialise in high-quality, unique native gardens, using natural materials such as native plants, wood, rocks, and stones to create beautiful, sustainable landscapes for you to enjoy.

A great lawn starts with great planning. The key to success includes:
However, one of the biggest factors in lawn health is correct maintenance. Incorrect mowing techniques and poor upkeep are the biggest reasons why lawns struggle. Not only do we install beautiful, thriving lawns, but we also give you expert tips on how to maintain them properly.
A properly installed system means better water efficiency, fewer breakdowns, and less maintenance down the track. We design and install high-quality reticulation systems tailored to your property’s layout—whether you’re working with bore or mains water.
Please see some examples of landscaping projects we’ve successfully completed. We’re passionate about doing things right the first time and not cutting corners.

You can now relax and enjoy your beautiful garden.
Ascot’s sandy, nutrient-poor ground, especially in low-lying riverside areas, needs more than a thin layer of topsoil to thrive. With hydrophobic sand that repels water, very low organic matter and nutrients, summer crusting that leads to runoff, and pockets of salinity near the riverbanks, gardens here can struggle quickly without proper planning.
We know Ascot’s conditions inside out, so we blend quality loam with rich compost to boost fertility, apply soil wetters and conditioners for better absorption, fine-tune reticulation zones to match varying permeability, and mulch deeply to lock in moisture and feed the soil.
By focusing on strong foundations rather than quick fixes, we make sure your Ascot garden not only looks great at first but flourishes for years to come.
At Retic Renovation, we care. We genuinely care about our customers and creating thriving gardens that transform homes into spaces you love spending time in.
We believe a well-designed garden should improve your quality of life—not just look good for a few weeks. That’s why we use only quality materials and parts, void shortcuts and quick fixes, focus on doing the job properly the first time, and pay attention to the unseen foundations—like the soil prep, the irrigation setup, and the structure beneath the surface.
We’re extremely thorough with every stage of the job, from soil to sprinkler to finishing touches.
We’re probably not the right fit if:
If you value lasting results, care, and craftsmanship—let’s chat.
Most professional designers charge at least a few thousand dollars for a plan, with costs increasing based on complexity, detail, and whether the design is 2D, 3D, or a full master plan.
Prices vary significantly from one designer or company to another.
But you’re not just paying for a plan—you’re paying for professional planning to ensure the entire job is well-executed and long-lasting.
A plan is crucial to managing expectations:
A design also helps you visualise your garden, get excited, and make changes before work begins.
There’s nothing worse than saying after the job’s done: “I wish we’d thought of this earlier.”
It really depends on the size and complexity of the project.
Some jobs may take just a few days, while larger, more detailed softscaping projects—involving garden bed construction, advanced planting, or multi-stage designs—can take weeks or even months.
Timelines are influenced by:
The most important thing is: don’t rush the process. Good landscaping takes time, care, and planning. Trying to speed things up can lead to mistakes or a finish that doesn’t hold up long term.
A well-executed garden is worth the wait.
If the project is small or simple, you might get by without one. But for anything more detailed including and especially if planning a beautiful garden, a proper design is absolutely worth it.
A well-thought-out plan helps you:
It also ensures that you and the contractor are on the same page before anything begins. This saves time, reduces confusion, and leads to a better finished result.
If you’re investing good money into your landscaping, it makes sense to plan it properly.
Landscaping is the process of designing, creating, or modifying outdoor spaces to improve their appearance and functionality. This can include planting gardens, installing lawns, building paths or retaining walls, and setting up irrigation systems.
A landscaper plans and builds outdoor spaces. This can involve tasks like laying turf, planting trees and shrubs, constructing garden beds, installing irrigation systems, and handling site preparation such as soil improvement and drainage.
You can usually landscape over an easement, but you must be careful. Permanent structures like walls or large trees typically aren’t allowed, as access may be required by utility providers. Always check with your local council or land authority before doing any work.
