Garden Renovations Perth

Most established gardens in Perth’s northern suburbs reach a point where patching things up no longer cuts it. The reticulation is struggling, the lawn is tired, the garden beds have outgrown their original plan, or the outdoor space simply doesn’t work for the way you live anymore.

Kinetic Landscaping specialises in garden renovations and backyard makeovers across the northern suburbs, from targeted upgrades through to complete outdoor transformations. One experienced local team, handling everything from the assessment through to the finished result.

From Tired To Transformed

We scope the project around what you actually need, whether that’s a single element or a whole garden refresh.

Why Perth Homeowners Renovate Their Gardens

Every garden renovation begins somewhere. For most of our clients, it’s one of a handful of situations that tips the balance from putting up with it to doing something about it.

Reticulation that was never set up properly or has failed over time leaving brown patches, overwatered sections and a water bill that’s inflated for the results you can see. Lawns that have never thrived on sandy northern suburbs soil, no matter how much effort goes into it. Garden beds that have outgrown the original planting and turned into a maintenance burden rather than a feature.

For others, the issues are structural – retaining walls that are leaning, cracking or no longer doing the job they were built for. Maybe it’s an outdoor space that was done to a tight budget the first time and now it needs to be done properly. Sometimes it’s a lifestyle shift: the family has grown, the alfresco area isn’t big enough or there’s simply not enough usable outdoor space for your family.

Occasionally, it’s about the property itself, where a front garden renovation or full backyard makeover are the final step before the home gets put on the market. Curb appeal and presentation can make a significant difference to the result of a home sale.

Whatever your trigger is for undertaking a garden renovation, the starting point is the same: an honest assessment of what’s there, what’s worth keeping and what needs to change.

A garden remodel doesn’t necessarily mean starting from scratch. Whether you need a single element fixed, or your whole space needs to be refreshed, we scope the project around what you actually need.

Reticulation Modification

Assessment, modification and full system redesign for reticulation that’s failing, poorly configured or absent.

Lawn Removal & Replacement

Roll-on lawn or artificial grass – we remove what’s there, prepare the base properly and install a lawn that’s suited to your block.

Retaining Wall Replacement

Structural assessment and replacement of failing retaining walls, including council approval management where required.

Garden Bed Redesign & Replanting

Out with the overgrown and in with climate-appropriate suited to the northern suburbs and your watering schedule.

Paving & Path Upgrades

Replacement or extension of existing paving for diverse areas including alfresco areas, pool surrounds and garden paths.

Decking

Timber and composite decking suited to entertaining and outdoor living spaces that are built to last over time.

Privacy Screens, Fencing & Gates

Upgrades to existing fencing or installation of new privacy screens and gates.

Garden Lighting

Path, feature and garden lighting – functional, well-designed and seamlessly fitted to the finished garden.

Water Features

Supply and installation of water features to complement the surrounding garden or hardscape.

Day Seats and Garden Beds

Custom-built raised garden beds, day seats and pergola construction for outdoor living areas.

Hiring someone to renovate your existing garden takes a different kind of trust than a new build. There’s more at stake as existing structures, established plants and in some cases, work that’s been done by someone else are in play.

You Deal Directly With Bel & Jeremiah

From the initial site assessment to final walkthrough, you’re dealing with the same people throughout. Bel and Jeremiah are accountable for each project they take on and you can reach them directly if you need to.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kinetic did a fantastic job removing our old, poorly constructed landscaping. They were able to overcome the challenges of a very wide awkwardly sloping block (old unretained Alkimos Beach) to ensure the replacement limestone walls and paving looked natural and aesthetically appealing. They were happy to adapt to some design changes along the way with zero fuss and ensured everything was left tidy and clean before leaving. We have already received positive reviews from the neighbours. If you have to wait a while for availability, it’s worth the wait to get it done properly.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had our front and backyard completely transformed by Jera and Bel from Kinetic Landscaping, and we honestly couldn’t be happier. From the very first contact through to completion, their communication was far better than any other landscaping company we dealt with. They really listened to our ideas and then used their expertise to improve and refine them into something even better than we had imagined. They delivered everything on time and stuck to the agreed timelines, and throughout the job they were flexible and constantly checked in with us asking questions to make sure the work suited our needs and expectations. It genuinely felt like they cared about getting it right, not just finishing the job. The finished result is a space we are extremely proud of. They’ve even continued to help afterwards, giving advice on additional plants, pots, and the sprinkler setup so the garden stays looking its best. Thank you for making our dream a reality. We highly recommend Jera and Bel at Kinetic Landscaping!

They kept in touch and understood that we needed the work completed quickly before we had paving done. They were professional and got the work done. Thank you for always keeping in contact with time frames. Highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a flawless experience with Jera and Bel from Kinetic Landscaping.  The work they did was amazing and I couldn't be happier.  They accommodated all of my procrastinating with making decisions and were spot on with communication.  The space has been transformed from bland to beautiful. Now I just have to furnish with plants and some comfy chairs and that's where you'll find me. Would absolutely recommend if you want top quality workmanship.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Kinetic Landscaping highly enough. Bel, Jeremiah,  Reece and Blair transformed my front and back yards into a beautiful,  tranquil garden to enjoy. Bel's ideas and suggestions about outdoor wall art, pots and decorative screens together with her knowledge of native plants has made my garden a place of beauty. Jeremiah's knowledge and high craftsmanship with paving, fencing and garden design is awesome. The wonderful team at Kinetic were friendly, hard-working and reliable. They really care about customer satisfaction and attention to detail. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them. Thank you so much for everything guys. Christine. Butler.

Our Proven Process

Getting your garden renovation underway starts with a conversation. Here’s how our process plays out.

Step 1 – Tell Us About Your Project

Fill in our quote form. It takes a couple of minutes and covers what you’d like to change, what’s not working and the budget you’re working with.

Step 2 – Onsite Consultation

Bel or Jeremiah will visit your home, walk the existing garden and give you an honest assessment of what’s there. This is where we discuss what to keep, what to change and what the renovation could look like.

Step 3 – Detailed Scope & Quote

You’ll receive a clear quote with no hidden costs. We’ll outline an estimated timeline, flag anything requiring council approval and confirm the staging plan if the project is being delivered in phases.

Step 4 – We Get To Work

Throughout the entire process we maintain consistent communication to keep you updated. The site is left clean upon completion and the result is a garden that finally works the way it should.

We complete garden renovations and backyard makeovers throughout Perth’s northern suburbs, with deep experience in the established residential areas where renovation demand is strongest. If your property is in Alkimos, Eglinton, Yanchep, Two Rocks, Quinns Rocks, Mindarie, Clarkson or Joondalup, you’re in our service area.

Many of the properties we work on in these suburbs come with the same site characteristics – coastal exposure, sandy soil and in some cases elements that were installed years ago and are now due for an overhaul. That local knowledge shapes how we assess and approach every renovation project we take on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can You Work Around Existing Structures We Want To Keep?

Yes, and that’s a conversation we have during the onsite consultation. We’ll assess what’s there, tell you honestly what’s worth retaining and design the renovation around that. Not everything needs to be removed, and we won’t recommend taking something out unless there’s a good reason to.

Do You Handle Reticulation Modifications, Or Just New Installations?

Both. Whether your reticulation is failing in patches, poorly designed for your soil or simply never installed in the first place, we can assess, modify, upgrade or replace as needed. As an endorsed Waterwise partner, each system we work on is designed to comply with Perth’s watering regulations from the outset.

How Do You Assess What's Worth Keeping Versus Replacing?

Bel or Jeremiah will walk the garden with you at the consultation and give you a straight assessment of what’s performing, what isn’t and what your options are. We’re not in the business of recommending more than what is required – if something isn’t structurally sound or can be refreshed rather than fully replaced, we’ll tell you.

Do I Need Council Approval For Renovation Work?

It depends on the scope. Replacing or raising retaining walls above certain height, structural additions and anything near site boundaries can require council approval. Where approvals are required, we manage that process on your behalf – you won’t need to deal with council directly.

How Long Does A Garden Renovation Take?

It depends entirely on the scope. A focused renovation, such as a reticulation upgrade or lawn replacement, can generally be completed in under a week. A full garden transformation involving earthworks, retaining wall replacement, paving and replanting can take up to a few months. Weather can also affect timelines for certain work. We’ll give you a realistic estimated timeline as part of your quote, keeping you updated if anything changes.

Can We Stage The Renovation Across Two Timeframes Or Budgets?

This is worth discussing at consultation. Depending on the scope, it can make sense to tackle the project in stages – hardscaping first, with reticulation pre-lay included, followed by softscaping – lawn, planting and garden beds – once the structural work is complete. We’ll talk through what works logistically and make sure any staged approach is planned so that later works don’t undo what’s already been done.
