Garden clearance & landscaping
Darren cleared and landscaped a (roughly) 100 square metre section of our garden and then constructed a paved patio area, a path and 3 concrete bases. He also replaced our back fence & rear gate using high quality posts, panels and fittings. The end result was a complete transformation - from an area that was previously overgrown, uneven and underused to a now smart and level sun terrace with accompanying foundations for a shed, a large cabin and a smaller workshop. Darren demonstrated a real 'can-do' attitude throughout in really wet & muddy conditions. I highly recommend Libra Landscaping.Verified reviewerJob location: SM310 Landscaper

Building works and garden landscaping
Darren and his team did an amazing job especially considering the challenging circumstances of the work we needed doing. They rebuilt part of the garden which is on a slope, installed new posts and gravel boards to create a retaining wall, removed and replacing fencing and gate, built new steps and returfed the garden. Darren was incredibly accommodating and responsive to our requests, completed the job in half the time we expected and left everything immaculately clean and tidy. He and his team were super hard workers and provided highest quality workmanship. I can’t recommend them enough!Verified reviewerJob location: SE1910 Landscape Contractor

Garden path renewal, new fencing and concrete bases.
We’ve used Libra for several projects and we have had a great experience every time. The quality of the work was first class and it was a pleasure to work with Darren and his team. Communication was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. Darren was also able to offer great advice and different options for the work to be done. I would have no hesitation in recommending Libra.Verified reviewerJob location: KT2010 Landscaper

Complete renovation of garden
Cannot recommend Darren and his team enough!! Completely remodeled terrace garden. Works included demolishing old garage, new fencing, composite decking, sleeper flowerbeds, artifical grass, paving and a base for new shed. Darren was quick too quote and understood exactly what we wanted, he was able to start the work the following week and complete within 2 weeks. He was easy to communicate with and kept us in the loop making recommendations along the way. We loved his enthusiasm and can do attitude!Verified reviewerJob location: SM5
