Have you heard the news? 👀
We’ve introduced a brand new 6-Week Design Guarantee for our landscape design clients.
Here’s how it works:
• Pay your landscape design deposit
• Work with our team to develop your concept and brief
• Receive your initial completed landscape design, including 3D renders, within 6 weeks
And if we don’t deliver your landscape design plan within 6 weeks of receiving your deposit, we’ll refund your entire design fee. Guaranteed.
Why did we introduce this?
Because we don’t believe homeowners should be left waiting months just to receive a plan and a price for their new outdoor space.
Good planning is one of the most important parts of any landscaping project, and that process should be clear, efficient, and reliable from the beginning.
If you’d like to learn more about our landscape design services and the 6-Week Design Guarantee, you can find all the details on our website via the link in bio.

Who knew something so critical could look this satisfying?
There’s just something about a freshly finished concrete pour.
Concrete is the foundation for so much of what we build, and getting it right makes all the difference.

Designed for more than just little feet.
Sensory footpaths help encourage movement, balance and imaginative play, creating opportunities for children to learn and explore every time they step outside.
Thoughtful design isn’t always about the biggest features. Sometimes it’s the smallest details that make the biggest difference.

The real plot twist? You don`t need three people telling you three different versions of your project.
When your design, quote and construction all happen under one roof, there’s no chasing people, no crossed wires, and nothing gets lost in translation.

An open letter to our landscaping crew, from Claudia & Olivia:
We’re sorry. Truly. The heels were a mistake. The selfies mid-shift were a mistake. This entire week has been a mistake, and you all deserve better than watching two office girls attempt your job.
So here’s the deal: bring your White Card, your own tools, a reliable vehicle, and actual landscaping experience or qualifications, and Jason Reading Landscapes will hire you over us so fast it’ll make your head spin.
We build high-end residential, commercial and school projects across the Hunter that you’ll actually be proud of. In return, you’re looking at up to $52/hr (based on experience), full-time hours, no two days the same, uniforms and wet weather gear sorted, monthly team BBQs, and a genuinely family first crew who would very much like their job sites back.
Apply now via our website (link in bio), or send us a message. The boys will thank you. We definitely will.

From a bare, sloping block to a native garden sanctuary 🌿
Our clients came to us wanting more than a garden, they wanted a native sanctuary that drew in the birds and wildlife, gave them total privacy without losing the view, and felt like part of the landscape rather than something built on top of it. No small ask, especially on a sloping, exposed site that ruled out the usual fix of bulky retaining walls.
Swipe through to see how it came together, from the first cut into the turf to the finished space.
What made it work: our design team and construction team aren`t two separate businesses handing a project back and forth. They`re the same people, working together from day one. That meant every requirement in the brief, the privacy, the curves, the no retaining walls constraint, stayed front of mind right through construction, not just on the drawing board. Nothing got lost in translation between "what was designed" and "what got built," because there was never a handover to lose it in.
Designed and built entirely in-house by our team.
