Landscaping services in Ivanhoe

Ivanhoe has some of Melbourne's most character-filled properties: generous blocks, established trees and gardens planted decades ago that have never been properly rethought.

If the surfaces are worn, the circulation is awkward or the planting no longer suits how you live, it's time to sort it out. And if you're starting fresh with a new garden, we can help with that too, from first design through to construction.

About Easy Landscape Solutions

We're a Melbourne-based residential landscaping business that regularly works across Ivanhoe, the inner north, and the eastern suburbs. Larger blocks with established trees and older gardens are a core part of our work; every project is personally overseen by Nick from first site visit through to construction.

What we can help with in your Ivanhoe garden

Most Ivanhoe projects are a tailored mix of the following, we'll assess your site and recommend what's needed:

  • New garden design and construction: starting with a blank slate and creating an outdoor space that suits the block, the home and how you live

  • Reworking your layout so the garden flows better and is easier to use day to day

  • Paving and paths with clean detailing and correct falls so they last

  • Retaining walls, steps and level changes integrated neatly into the overall design

  • Drainage improvements if water is pooling or causing ongoing issues

  • Planting, turf and screening chosen to mature well and suit your conditions

  • Irrigation so your garden stays consistent through summer without constant effort

  • Garden lighting where it genuinely adds to how you use the space

Our design process

Before anything is built, Nick visits your Ivanhoe property in person (complimentary, no obligation). He will walk the site with you, assess the conditions and work through a clear plan before construction begins.
