Landscaping in Erskine: what we see

Erskine fronts the Peel Inlet south of the Mandurah Estuary Bridge and is home to several lifestyle and retirement villages, Mandurah Quay and a lot of tidy, established homes on good-sized blocks.

Most of our Erskine work is making gardens easier: replacing big lawns with smaller lawns plus artificial turf, converting thirsty beds to waterwise natives on drip, rebuilding retaining in limestone, and adding level, non-slip paving for people who want to stay in their homes longer.

Three things to know about Erskine yards

Low-maintenance conversions are our most common Erskine job.
Estuary-side blocks can sit wet in winter — drainage before paving.
Shade from mature trees: Buffalo for lawn, not kikuyu.

FAQ

Erskine landscaping questions

Can you make my Erskine garden easier to look after?

Absolutely. A typical Erskine makeover: shrink the lawn, add artificial turf where it's shaded or awkward, put the beds on drip with coarse mulch and natives, fix the retic controller, and lay level paving to the clothesline and shed. Less work, lower water bill, still green.

What are the watering days in Erskine?

Two days a week set by the last digit of your street number — 1 or 8: Wed & Sat; 2 or 9: Sun & Thu; 3 or 0: Mon & Fri; 4: Tue & Sat; 5: Sun & Wed; 6: Mon & Thu; 7: Tue & Fri — before 9am or after 6pm, with sprinklers off 1 June to 31 August. Bores included. Use our watering-day finder to check.

Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Erskine?

Under the WA Building Regulations any wall retaining more than 500 mm needs a building permit from the City of Mandurah and an engineer's design. Walls under 500 mm are generally exempt. We handle the paperwork.
