Sandremoval on most new blocks

Nearly 38,000 people live in Baldivis, almost all of them in estates built since 2000 on what was market gardens and bushland. Every one of those houses started as a flat, bare sand block with a cut-and-fill retaining wall along the back fence and a builder's pile of excess sand out the front. Turning that into a finished, covenant-compliant yard — fast and on a budget — is what we do most.

The western side of Baldivis is undulating sand and limestone, which drains fast and needs soil amendment for lawns. East of the freeway and into rural Baldivis, Karnup and Serpentine the ground flattens to sand over clay with winter-wet patches, so drainage and levels matter more. Byford, 30 minutes north-east and now on the rail line, has a similar mix of estate blocks and hobby farms.

Rules that matter here. City of Rockingham and Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale: building permit and engineer's design for retaining walls over 500 mm; estate design guidelines usually require front-yard landscaping (lawn, planting, sometimes a tree) within a set period of handover; verge treatments limited.
