Your outdoor space isn’t just an accessory; it’s a critical extension of your home’s value and functionality. At Must Have Maintenance, we focus on actionable design solutions that work in Melbourne’s diverse climate, offering tangible benefits for your property.

The True Cost of Professional Landscaping

Professional landscaping services aren’t overrated. They have the expertise you’ll need to create an attractive but also multi–functional outdoor space that can boost your property value. Professional Landscapers in Melbourne are experts in developing innovative designs that are not only sustainable and aesthetic but also practical. This is important cost-wise; you don’t want to be spending your money on aesthetic elements that aren’t functional or practical but aren’t giving your property justice visual-wise right? Beyond these, professional landscapers ensure your design is easy to maintain, saving you time and reducing long-term costs.

Front Yard Landscaping: First Impressions Matter

A good-looking front yard does much more than just look good; it speaks to the desirable quality and care of your property. It further enhances your property’s curb appeal, potentially increasing its value.

Here are some landscaping upgrades to consider in Melbourne:

Pick Plants Wisely: Native plants and drought-tolerant varieties not only use less water but also complement the natural look of your property. We recommend drought resistant floras like Kangaroo Paw, Lomandra, and Grevillea to help make your front yard garden look lush.
Pathways: Pathways, generally, should be designed in such a way that they guide visitors effortlessly without the need for excessive signs. Many Melbourne houses in the market are leaning towards clean lines and minimalist laterals such as bluestone or exposed aggregate concrete. Not only do they complement modern architectural design, they’re also durable and require little maintenance.
Vertical Garden: Melbourne homes with limited spaces are maximising their walls and fences, growing greenery upward.

Backyard Landscaping: Creating a Relaxing Outdoor Haven

Backyards can become a sanctuary where you can chill and unwind and in most cases, connect with people. However, this is only true when carefully planned. With the right functionality design, your backyard could be the perfect venue for a casual barbecue party to elegant soirees.

Some features you might consider incorporating for a social-ready outdoor space include fire pits, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, and water features such as ponds, waterfalls, or fountains.

We also recommend including low-maintenance structures, like previous pavement and lawns lined with native plants, which reduces upkeep and enhances ecological sensibility.
