Reviews
What our clients say
Rated 4.9 from 180+ Google reviews.
From the first consultation it was clear Arbour & Stone were the experts. They reimagined our tired backyard into a garden the whole family lives in — considered, beautifully built, and finished exactly as promised. The process was genuinely enjoyable.
Our courtyard was a difficult, shaded space and they turned it into the calmest room in the house. Meticulous detailing, lovely planting, and a team that communicated every step. We couldn't be happier.
Having one team design, build and manage everything made a large project feel effortless. The craftsmanship is outstanding and two years on the garden looks better than ever.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
What does a landscape project cost?
Premium gardens vary widely with size, materials and complexity. Many of our full design-and-build projects sit between $80k and $300k+. We're transparent about investment early, so the conversation is useful from the start.
Do you offer design only?
Yes. You can engage us for design alone, though most clients value having the same team design, build and manage — it's where the accountability and quality really show.
How long will my garden take?
Design typically takes several weeks; construction ranges from a few weeks for a courtyard to several months for a large garden. We give you a clear programme up front.
Do you work with architects and interior designers?
Regularly. We are comfortable collaborating so the garden, architecture and interiors feel like one considered whole.
Which areas do you cover?
We work across Sydney, with much of our work in the Eastern Suburbs, Lower North Shore and Inner West — including Mosman, Woollahra, Vaucluse, Bellevue Hill, Hunters Hill and Paddington.
