Mosman yards come with views, and with slopes.

A lot of Mosman backyards fall away towards the water, so the work usually starts with getting the levels right. We build the walls, steps and flat areas that make a sloping block usable, then add the deck, paving and garden around them. Many streets also sit in heritage conservation areas, so we keep materials and finishes in step with the house.

Landscaping in Mosman

Turf, paving, garden beds and steps planned around the fall of the block. On steep Mosman sites we think about access and drainage first, because they decide how everything else goes in.

Timber pool deck with feature screen

Decking in Mosman

Timber and composite decks that extend the living area out to the view. Raised decks on sloping blocks need solid framing and good footings, and that is where we spend our time.

Retaining walls in Mosman

Sandstone-look, block and concrete sleeper retaining walls that turn a slope into usable lawn or garden, with drainage behind the wall so it lasts.

We also build fences, pergolas, carports and garden sheds, outdoor features and complete outdoor transformations in Mosman. We're builders, not gardeners, so we don't do mowing or garden maintenance.

Mosman questions we get asked

Do I need council approval for a retaining wall or deck in Mosman?

It depends on the size, height and position of the work, and on whether your property is in one of Mosman's heritage conservation areas. Some small walls and decks count as "exempt development" under NSW planning rules and need no approval, as long as they meet strict limits. Others need a development application to Mosman Council. We'll talk it through when we quote, but always confirm with council before any work starts.Source: Mosman Council: heritage · NSW Planning Portal: exempt development

Can you build on a steep Mosman block with tricky access?

Yes. Plenty of Mosman jobs have narrow side paths or stairs down to the backyard. We plan how materials and rubbish get in and out before we start, and that's part of the quote.

Do you do garden maintenance in Mosman?

No. We build outdoor spaces: walls, decks, paving, turf, gardens and gates. We don't do mowing or ongoing maintenance.

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.
