Sandringham homes

Built for life near the beach.

Sandringham backyards get used. Long summer evenings, friends over after the beach, kids and dogs in and out all day. The best Sandringham gardens are made for that: a covered spot to eat outside, hard surfaces that rinse clean, and planting that looks good without constant watering.

We start with how you want to live outside, then design the space around it. You see a mockup of your own yard before anything is built, and an itemised proposal shows what each stage costs, so you can build it all at once or in steps.

Local know how

What we plan for in Sandringham.

01

Salt and wind

Close to the water, salt air is hard on metal and timber. We use stainless or hot dip galvanised fixings, decking suited to the coast, and plants that tolerate wind and salt.

02

Sand and slopes

Sandy soil needs a well compacted base under paving and steps. Where streets fall towards the bay, terraces solve the levels, and walls of 1 m or more generally need a building permit.

03

Pools

Many Sandringham backyards are built around a pool. We plan paving, decking and planting so the area is easy to live with and the pool barrier stays in place and working.

04

Protected trees

Bayside City Council protects trees with a trunk circumference over 155 cm, measured 1 m above the ground. Removing one needs a permit, so we design around big trees.

What's included

Planned once, built properly.

Every Sandringham project is quoted stage by stage, so you can build it all at once or in steps and see exactly what's included before we start.

  2. A free visual mockup of your own yard
  3. An itemised, stage by stage proposal
  4. Excavation and site preparation

How it works

Four steps.
No surprises.

A simple process that shows you the finished result before we start, and keeps you in the loop until handover.

01

Site visit

We come out, measure up, check levels and drainage, and talk through how you want to use the space.

02

Visual mockup

We show you your own yard with the new design applied, so you can see it before you commit.

03

Itemised proposal

A clear, stage by stage price with what's included and what's not. Bundle stages together and save.

04

Build & handover

One team builds it start to finish, keeps the site clean, and walks you through the finished result.

Often, yes. Bayside City Council protects trees with a trunk circumference over 155 cm, measured 1 m above the ground. We'll point out any affected trees early so the permit doesn't hold up your project.
