Complete Landscaping Supplies & Installation for Coastal Conditions”
Buffalo Grass Installation - The Smart Choice for Northern Beaches Families
Buffalo grass is hands-down the best choice for most Northern Beaches properties, and here's why. This stuff is practically bulletproof when it comes to salt air - something you can't avoid when you're this close to the ocean. While other turf types get burnt and damaged by coastal winds, buffalo grass just keeps growing strong.
Our buffalo grass installation process is tailored specifically for coastal conditions. We prepare the soil with amendments that help retain moisture in our sandy soils, and we time the installation to give your new lawn the best chance at quick establishment. The result is a thick, green lawn that looks great and performs even better.
Topsoil Supply & Installation - Foundation for Healthy Gardens
Our natural sandy soils drain fast, which is great for foundations but terrible for plant roots trying to find nutrients and moisture. That's where quality topsoil makes all the difference.
Our premium topsoil isn't just dirt we've scraped up somewhere. We source from suppliers who blend organic matter, composted materials, and quality soil to create a growing medium that actually works in coastal conditions. It holds moisture without getting waterlogged, provides nutrients your plants can access, and improves over time as organic matter breaks down.
The installation process involves more than just dumping soil and spreading it around. We calculate the right depth for your specific plants, ensure proper grading for drainage, and blend the new soil with existing materials where appropriate.
Garden Soil Supply & Installation - Specialized Blends for Every Plant Type
For clients creating rose gardens or growing acid-loving plants like azaleas, we've got specialized blends that create the right pH conditions. Our team knows which soil types work best for the plants you're trying to grow, and we'll recommend the right blend based on your specific garden plans.
We've been working with these microclimates for years, so we know exactly what works where.
Installation involves careful attention to depth requirements and drainage considerations. Shallow-rooted herbs need different soil preparation than deep-rooted shrubs. Our team handles all the technical details, so you get soil that's properly prepared for whatever you're planting.
Mulch Supply & Installation - Protection and Beauty Combined
We carry different mulch types for different situations. Our hardwood mulch breaks down slowly and looks great in formal garden settings. For native plant gardens, we've got specialized native mulch that complements Australian plants perfectly. Clients with vegetable gardens often prefer our organic compost mulch that feeds the soil as it breaks down.
The application process matters just as much as the mulch type. Too thick and you'll create problems with air circulation and water penetration. Too thin and you lose the protective benefits. Our team knows the right depth for different plant types and garden situations.

Turf Supply & Installation for Northern Beaches
Coastal conditions demand turf that can handle salt air, sandy soils, and long dry spells. That’s why we only supply and install grass varieties proven to thrive locally.
Buffalo grass – the family favourite. Tough, kid-friendly, and salt-tolerant, it stays green year-round and recovers quickly after heavy use.
Couch grass – perfect for homeowners chasing that manicured, fine-leaf look. It requires more care but delivers a premium finish that enhances coastal property appeal.
Drought-tolerant options – designed for water restrictions and low-maintenance lifestyles, while still providing a lush, healthy lawn.
Our service goes beyond supply—we prepare your soil properly, install with the right timing, and manage delivery to avoid heat stress. The result: a resilient, beautiful lawn that’s built for Northern Beaches conditions and lasts for years to come.
Artificial Turf Installation - Low-Maintenance Beauty That Lasts
Artificial turf installation is all about the preparation work you don’t see. Cheap installations that skip proper base preparation end up looking lumpy, developing drainage problems, and failing within a few years. Our installation process starts with proper excavation and base materials that handle our coastal conditions.
The turf products we use are specifically chosen for Australian conditions. They handle UV exposure without fading, drain properly during heavy rain, and maintain their appearance year after year. We don’t cut corners on product quality because we know you’re making a long-term investment.
Our installation includes proper drainage systems, secure edging that won’t shift over time, and infill materials that keep the turf looking and feeling natural. The result is a lawn that looks great year-round with virtually no maintenance required.

FAQs About Turf and Soil Supplier
Delivery costs depend on your location and order size, but we keep it fair and transparent. For most Northern Beaches suburbs like Avalon, Mona Vale, or Collaroy, delivery is usually between $80-$150 for standard loads. If you’re ordering enough materials for a full lawn or large garden project, we often include delivery in the overall quote. The tricky access in some beachside streets might add a bit extra, but we’ll always tell you upfront – no surprises on the day.
For most turf and soil jobs, you don’t need council approval. But if we’re doing major excavation, changing drainage patterns, or working near trees, it’s worth checking. Our team knows the Northern Beaches Council requirements pretty well – we’ve been dealing with them for years. If there’s any doubt, we’ll help you figure out what’s needed before we start work.
Great question. In my experience, about 70% of Northern Beaches properties can get away with soil improvement rather than complete replacement. If water pools on the surface after rain, or plants consistently struggle despite proper care, you probably need new soil. If you’ve got some plant growth but things just look a bit tired, we can usually amend what’s there. I always do a quick soil test to be sure.
When it’s installed properly, yes. The key is in the base preparation and securing the edges properly. I’ve seen cheap installations where corners start lifting after the first big southerly, but with proper excavation, base materials, and edge fixing, artificial turf handles our coastal conditions just fine. We use heavier-duty fixing methods here compared to inland areas because we know what the wind can do.
Buffalo grass handles slopes really well once established, but installation requires special techniques. On slopes steeper than about 1 in 4, we’ll often recommend soil stabilization first, maybe some temporary erosion control matting. The key is timing the installation right and making sure irrigation reaches the whole slope evenly. I’ve done plenty of steep coastal blocks – it’s definitely doable with the right approach.
