HAVE QUERIES REGARDING OUR ULTIMATE LANDSCAPE GUIDE?

COMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • What exactly is this guide?

    It’s a practical, beautifully designed resource created for homeowners planning a new build, knockdown-rebuild, or major renovation. Inside, you'll get expert insights, cost breakdowns, planning checklists, and design inspiration so you can avoid costly mistakes and create a garden will elevate your properties value and your day to day quality of life. 

  • Who is this guide for?

    If you're planning a home build or renovation and want your garden to be more than an afterthought, this guide is for you. 


    It’s especially helpful if you're time-poor, quality-conscious, and want your landscaping to be done right from the ground up. 

  • Why do I need to think about landscaping before I build?

    Because getting it wrong is expensive. 


    Many homeowners wait until the end only to realise machinery can’t access the site, costs have blown out, or their dream features can’t be built. This guide shows you how to get ahead of all that, saving time, money, and stress.

  • Does the guide include pricing or budgeting help?

    Yes., there’s a full cost guide and free calculator so you can get a realistic sense of what to expect based on your site and wish list. 


    We’ve even included common pricing for paving, retaining walls, planting, lighting, and more. 


    We've excluded large additions like pools & spas because of complicated variables that we have to manually factor in. 

  • Will this help if I don’t have a design yet?

    Describe the item or answer the question so that site visitors who are interested get more information. You can emphasize this text with bullets, italics or bold, and add links.
  • Is this guide relevant to my area?

    This guide was created specifically for homeowners on the Mornington Peninsula and surrounding areas, but the insights apply broadly across Victoria. If you’re working with a builder or architect, it will help you integrate landscaping at the right stage.

  • What happens after I download the guide?

    You’ll get instant access, plus an email copy to refer back to. If you’d like, you can also book a complimentary discovery call with Jay, our founder, to talk through your project and get clarity on next steps. 


    No pressure, no obligation.

  • Is Flo Landscapes the right fit for my project?

    If you care about quality, precision, and long-term value, yes. 


    We work best with clients who want to be involved in the process, who care about great design, and who want their outdoor space to feel just as thoughtful as their interiors.

  • What makes you different from a typical landscaper?

    We’re not here to ‘whack in a few plants and call it a day.’


    We integrate design, construction, and project management from day one. That means fewer headaches, smarter decisions, and stunning outcomes that last. 


    Our founder, Jay, has an aerospace engineering background so every detail is measured, managed, and beautifully executed.

  • How many projects do you take on at once?

    We’re a boutique team and only take on a limited number of clients each year. 


    This ensures every project gets the care, creativity, and attention it deserves. If you're planning 6–12 months ahead, it's a good time to reach out.

  • What if I already have a builder or architect?

    Even better. We collaborate with architects, engineers, and builders every day to ensure your landscape flows perfectly with your home’s design. 


    We speak their language and know how to integrate early so nothing gets missed.
