Landscaping in Gladesville, from the river slopes up.
Decks, retaining walls, turf, paving and automatic gates for Gladesville homes, from the streets off Victoria Road down to the Parramatta River.
Sloping streets and family backyards.
Gladesville has a lot of family homes on blocks that slope towards the river. Older brick houses sit next to new builds and duplexes, and many backyards need levelling before they are really usable. We build the walls and steps first, then the deck, lawn and paving that make the yard a place to spend time.

Gladesville questions we get asked
Which council covers Gladesville, and do I need approval?
Gladesville is split between the City of Ryde and Hunter's Hill Council, so it depends on your street. Your rates notice will tell you which one. Some small walls and decks are "exempt development" under NSW rules, and others need approval, so check with your council before you build.Source: City of Ryde: planning and development · Hunter's Hill Council: development · NSW Planning Portal: exempt development
Can you build steps and paths down a steep backyard?
Yes. On steep Gladesville blocks we often build stone, block or timber steps with a path or landing, plus handrails where needed, so the whole yard is safe and easy to get around.
Can you level a sloping backyard?
Yes. We use retaining walls and steps to create flat areas for a lawn, a deck or a paved spot for the table.
General information only, not legal advice. Planning rules change and every property is different, so always check with your local council or the NSW Planning Portal before you build.
