THE HONEST BIT
Looking after a garden takes time. Finding someone reliable takes more.
Most people don't mind the idea of a good garden. What wears them down is the upkeep, and the merry-go-round of operators who don't turn up, rush the job, or send a different person every week.
01
The mow-and-go merry-go-round
Booked, cancelled, ghosted. You shouldn't have to chase someone to do the work you're paying for.
02
It's quietly getting away from you
The inside of the home is sorted. The outside is slipping, and there's never a weekend free to catch it up.
03
A garden that doesn't suit the house
Added to piecemeal over the years, so it fights the architecture instead of flowing from it.
04
Good bones, gone wild
An established garden that's lost its shape and just needs someone to bring it back, then keep it there.
WHY BCW
I look after it like it's my own.
You want a garden you're proud of, not another job on the list, and not another tradie to manage. That's the whole reason BCW exists.
Three decades of hands-on experience in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, backed by landscape-design accreditation. I measure, plant, prune and care for every garden myself, so the person who quotes your garden is the person who looks after it.
