Landscaping in Warnbro: what we see

Warnbro is an established 1980s–90s family suburb behind Warnbro Sound — bigger blocks than the newer estates, established trees, and a lot of landscaping that's now 30 years old and ready for a refresh.

Full back-yard rebuilds are common: out with the tired lawn, rotten timber retaining and 90s retic, in with limestone walls, exposed aggregate alfresco, roll-on lawn or artificial turf and a hydrozoned retic system.

Three things to know about Warnbro yards

  • Mature trees mean shade — Sir Walter Buffalo for lawn under them.
  • Timber retaining replacement is the number-one request.
  • Good-sized blocks suit staged projects.
