Artview Landscapes

We used Artview to build a full front and backyard from scratch. Removing the clay and dead plants onsite, adding soil, plants, driveways, gutters, paths and more. Brian is focused on a top-quality result and doesn't take shortcuts. When things went wrong, he suggested good solutions. He's very responsive and co-operative and would use him again.

Brian was able to solve a 10yr old problem for us - a shady garden at one end of our pool. He was able to green this area for us and this spring we have beautiful flowers for the first time ever. Brian and his team were extremely professional and I cannot fault them. Brian is highly experienced and can solve any landscape issue, have a chat to Brian, you won't be disappointed.

Brian and his team did a fantastic job transforming our front yard. They removed the old lawn, dug out the soil, added fresh new soil to create a raised garden area, then planted a range of new plants and a hedge. The garden is already taking shape beautifully and looks wonderful. Now that spring is here, the garden greets us with little surprises each day – fresh green shoots, delicate buds, and new leaves unfurling on the deciduous trees. It feels alive and full of promise. The team were professional, hardworking, and reliable – even turning up during very cold winter weather to get the job done. We’re delighted with the results and highly recommend them.

I am not one to post negative reviews of a business but I feel like I have to warn the public about this one. I used them for general lawns and garden maintenance. They have a minimum of a 3hr charge which I agreed to (at $99/hr). The agreement was for 2 x 3hr sessions only. However on the first session, I was charged for 3hrs work despite rain resulting in hardly any work to be done. They came back later in the week for the second session and performed 4hrs work, despite an agreement to only perform 3hrs of work. And then I receive an email saying that they need to do book another 3hr session just to spray the lawns for weeds. And of course, if the weather turned sour on the day then they would have charged me 3hrs even if they weren't able to complete the job. So overall I had to pay more than $700 for an incomplete job. I privately made a complaint via email to the Accounts officer, Jade, and to the owner, Brian, but received no reply. I then asked for a receipt of my payment but just received radio silence. Their business model is clearly set up to maximally charge for a minimum amount of work. But what is more disappointing is their lack of communication and professionalism. Avoid at all costs!

Brian and the team did a fantastic job with our front and back garden. From levelling and returfing and lawn to paving a new driveway and building a flight of sandstone steps. No part of the work was too big or small. Brian expertly handled our scope changes, horrible weather and a awkwardly positioned work site. We are incredibly happy with the result.

Was not happy at all with parts of this job. Some mature plants were cut down so far it will take months for them to recover. Looks like someone hit them with a chainsaw. A rounded tree looks like a peanut shell in that it’s fat and top and bottom and skinny in the middle. Will not be using again.

Artview has recently completed a major 13-week, full-time, job on both our front yard and back yard. The job required significant earth moving, several retaining walls, stairs, fencing, and paving. Brian was professional from the beginning, taking the plans we had and making practical and sensible suggestions for change. Brian was clear about areas where variations may arise during the works, and as a result we had no surprises along the way (with budget variations reasonable and within expectations). Shane and his team led the work on-site and they were great. Shane was always happy to answer questions and he and Brian kept us informed to avoid any practical inconvenience along the way. We are thrilled with our new yard(s) and would happily recommend Artview Landscapes to anyone with a major garden project.
