Getting Started

Professional landscape design and construction in Cammeray

A Bargain Gardener delivers complete landscape design and construction projects across Cammeray and the broader North Sydney Council area. Where ongoing garden maintenance keeps an existing landscape looking great, landscape design and construction is the bigger investment, a complete transformation that establishes the outdoor space you want for the next decade or longer. Cammeray sits within North Sydney Council’s distinctive harbourside character, the closest LGA to Sydney Harbour with iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge views from many properties. Cammeray landscape projects often involve harbourside foreshore design with sandstone retaining walls and salt-tolerant plantings, compact urban courtyards for apartments and townhouses, heritage federation garden redesigns respecting council conservation areas, or complete backyard transformations maximising limited inner-suburban space. Free design consultations. Fixed-price project quoting. A single point of contact through every stage. Workmanship guaranteed on every build.

Thoughtful landscape design in Cammeray means making every square metre count, with outdoor spaces designed around how you actually live.

Key Expertise

Unique landscape qualities of North Sydney Council

Landscape work in Cammeray and the broader LGA centres on three specialist design competencies, each backed by our specific design expertise.

Harbour foreshore landscape design

North Sydney Council includes several suburbs with iconic Sydney Harbour foreshore frontage, including Kirribilli, Lavender Bay, McMahons Point, Milsons Point, Cremorne Point and Kurraba Point. Landscape design for harbourside properties requires knowledge of foreshore building line regulations, natural sandstone retaining wall solutions, salt-tolerant planting, view-preserving layouts and council heritage conservation area requirements that apply to many waterfront homes. Many sites also feature major level differences requiring structural retaining walls.

Compact courtyard landscape design

As Sydney’s second CBD, North Sydney has significant urban density, with areas such as Cammeray, North Sydney, Crows Nest and St Leonards offering compact properties, apartment courtyards, townhouse gardens and terrace landscaping opportunities. Effective design focuses on limited space, vertical garden integration, flexible hardscaping, courtyard paving, compact entertaining zones and making every square metre more usable. Particularly suitable for harbour-view balconies and rooftop gardens.

Heritage residential landscape design

Established federation homes and heritage residential streetscapes are common throughout Cremorne, Neutral Bay, Waverton and Wollstonecraft. Landscape redesign for these properties should respect architectural history while adding contemporary usability, through formal hedge restoration, period-appropriate planting choices, traditional materials such as sandstone, brick and timber, and outdoor entertaining zones that complement the original architecture. Sensitive design is especially important in North Sydney Council heritage conservation areas.

Our Design and Build Process

From concept to completed landscape

A landscape project is a substantial investment. Here’s how A Bargain Gardener works through each stage of your Cammeray project, so you know exactly what lies ahead.

01

Complimentary on-site consultation

We come to your Cammeray property to assess the site, take measurements, clarify your needs, note any features to retain, and discuss the style you have in mind. There is no fee for the consultation.

02

Design concept preparation

We prepare a tailored design concept showing the layout, hardscape elements, planting areas, and how the landscape suits your home’s architecture. The design is reviewed and approved before quoting.

03

Transparent fixed-price project quote

We supply a written fixed-price quote that includes design, materials, labour and rubbish removal. No unexpected hourly costs arise during construction. The price on the quote is the price you pay.

04

On-site preparation and clearing

The initial stage includes clearing the site, removing old hardscape, clearing vegetation as needed, and preparing the area for construction. We remove all debris at our cost.

05

Construction of structural landscape features

The landscape’s key structural elements, such as decking, paving and retaining walls, are built first with proper substructure and professional finishing.

06

Soft landscaping completion and final handover

We lay the turf, build the garden beds, install plants, apply mulch and complete the final clean-up. Your Cammeray landscape is handed over complete, photographed and ready to enjoy, backed by guaranteed workmanship.
