Live landscaping jobs in Melbourne – Great Spaces will price your project

There’s a simple reason live landscaping jobs are easier to price than many builders expect: landscaping sits at the very end of the build program. By the time the landscape package is due, the rest of the project has often been running for months, which means that even if you’re well into the build, there’s usually still plenty of time for us to price the works properly and be ready when the site is.

That timing works in your favour. A builder might have a landscape figure carried in a tender from the start, with the actual works still eight months away. That’s more than enough runway for Great Spaces to review the scope, price it sharply and have everything ready to go when the time comes.

We also know that most builders already have someone in mind. More often than not, you’re not looking to replace your contractor – you just want a second, competitive price to test the number you’ve already got. We’re completely comfortable with that. Send it through, and we’ll price it.

The main thing builders and project managers want to know is whether we’ll take the job on, and the answer is yes. Great Spaces prices live jobs across commercial, education, public and large-scale projects, and we handle both design and construction under one roof. That means you deal with a single contractor who can carry the landscape package from drawings through to a finished, handed-over result, without you having to coordinate a separate designer and builder. Whatever stage your project is at, we’re happy to review the scope and give you a price.

Great Spaces has delivered landscape projects across Melbourne for commercial, education and public clients, from large-scale grounds to detailed built landscapes. You can see a cross-section of our work on our projects page.

Box Hill Montessori Early Learning — Delivered multiple ground-level and rooftop play spaces for a complex multi-storey early learning centre, coordinating craned materials, waterproofing constraints and specialist play surfaces to complete the project on time and on budget.

Glass Street — Executed a large-scale landscape by Anthony Scott Landscape Design for a major contemporary residence, coordinating extensive soil, drainage and irrigation works, mature planting, custom features and detailed hard landscaping to meet exacting architectural standards.

Auburn High School — Transformed a steep, underused site into a multi-purpose outdoor precinct with sports courts, a yarning circle, outdoor classroom, seating and landscaping, completing the entire project within the school holiday period to minimise disruption.

Getting a price started is straightforward. Send through whatever you have – the tender documents, plans, landscape drawings, or even a rough scope and a few site photos – and we’ll review it and come back to you. From there, we’ll arrange a site visit to confirm the details and firm up the quote.

We won’t pretend a proper price happens in a few minutes. Pricing a live job accurately takes a little time to do well, and that care is exactly what protects you from surprises later in the build. We can promise is that we’ll respond, be straight with you about what’s involved, and give you a competitive number to work with. You can see how we approach a project on our process page.
