If you want to make the most out of a landscape build or refurbishment, getting a landscape designer to do the job is the wisest choice. From start to the end of the process, they can provide professional assistance that will set your landscape at a high standard. Quit the confusing process thanks to experts in landscape design.Â
Some landscape designers are trained like landscape architects, although they are usually not required to get a state licence to use a title and complete the job. Some designers, however, might have acquired other relevant permits and specialised permits and certificates.
The key benefit is how you don’t have to pay for the overhead costs, which means you can get the same professional service without overspending. They’re also more flexible in terms of scheduling, allowing them to accommodate your requests quicker than engaging with other busy companies. Simply post your task and find freelance experts on Airtasker.
The exact time frame can’t be provided; it usually depends on the architect’s skills and capabilities, the scope of the project, and necessary revisions. After the preliminary research and analysis, it is safe to give them at least a few days or weeks to craft an efficient strategy. You can also ask them for a more accurate estimation.
Landscape designers can craft your ideal landscape plan, but they are not licenced to produce construction service. Meanwhile, landscape architects are licenced and qualified to provide construction-ready layouts and also supervise the whole project for you. Since their experience involves designing complex construction features such as plumbing and excavations, it’s best to hire them if you’re building a landscape from scratch. Landscape designers are more suitable if you’re remodelling an existing outdoor space.
You can directly ask your architect if they are licenced to do landscape-related projects. To further check their qualifications, we recommend asking them for a photo of licence and ID, as well as certificates in case they have attended specialised training or seminars. When in doubt, there are some available industry databases where you can verify their licence status.
Definitely. Not limited to residential projects, you can hire architects on Airtasker to design, plan, and supervise commercial projects. They can ensure that your project will go smoothly and according to the plan, while also complying with state regulations. When it comes to commercial hardscape or softscape construction, landscape contractors can also take on the job.
Absolutely. Through Airtasker, you can find a range of landscape specialists who can help you maximise your outdoor space. If you have a front lawn, there’s a pool of lawn care experts who can help trim grass or keep the weeds away. You can also connect with cleaning specialists who can keep your backyard garden tidy.
Landscaping Services
What does a landscape design service include?
Our landscape designers have the skills and experience to help you achieve the landscape you've always wanted. They can redesign your current backyard, or craft a whole new concept for you. Using their knowledge and artistry, you can count on them for a detailed final plan, either digitally prepared or printed. To give you an overview, here's how our garden design and landscape service works:
Garden landscape analysis
Usually, our design process starts with an initial site visit. It allows our landscape designers to fully understand your style so they can come up with a solution that will best reflect your personality and aesthetics. It can also give them a better idea of the location, lifestyle, and climate, and identify any possible challenges that might arise. While at it, feel free to discuss the ideas you have in mind, your preference, as well as your budget.
In case of unforeseen circumstances that your designers will not be able to show up to your place, you can send them photos of your current landscape. You may also discuss your plans with them through our messaging tool.
Garden landscape design proposal
Our designers prepare their first design proposal based on all the gathered insights and discussions from the initial meeting. The sketches and layout can be presented to you conventionally through pen-and-paper or via digital platforms. The purpose is to give you a visual idea of how your future garden landscape will look like. Usually, it includes all the suggested landscape features that will complete your outdoor space. Popular elements are plants, flowers, hedges, trees, pathways, and real or artificial turf.
If you want to make your landscape a little more entertaining, you can ask our designers to include pools, garden bench seats, water features like ponds and waterfalls, and even a gazebo. Do not hesitate to let them know your feedback. Our landscape designers may work on many revisions until they come up with the perfect and most suitable design.
Garden landscape final concept plan
The service usually concludes with a final concrete plan that will guide you towards correct execution. Once the design proposal is approved, your designer hands over a final concept plan, which usually contains: 2D or 3D visuals, furniture and material recommendations and samples, demolitions if applicable, and detailed plan for each landscape feature.

We also have a range of landscape contractors who can do all the building and installing to complete your new outdoor living space. You can even hire our landscape architects if you need someone who can professionally supervise the whole thing and ensure that the project is going according to plan.
