Garden Maintenance
Keeping gardens flourishing with expert care all year round.
Garden and Landscape Maintenance in Sydney and the Northern Rivers
Our Approach
A well-maintained garden does more than look tidy. It matures. It deepens. It becomes more expressive with time.
At Landart, we view maintenance not as routine upkeep, but as the ongoing stewardship of a living environment. Our professional teams in Sydney and the Northern Rivers are led by trained horticulturalists who understand both the science of plant health and the intent behind the original design.
As recently highlighted in The Sydney Morning Herald, the gardens of Australia’s most prestigious homes are not simply planted and left — they are guided over years to reach their full expression. As our Director Matt Leacy notes, a garden is never finished when installed. It evolves, and it requires someone listening, observing and responding accordingly.
Whether newly established or long-standing, our focus is on nurturing balance, structure and vitality through every season.
We work across a wide variety of properties, from contemporary city gardens to expansive estates. Every program is tailored, combining practical expertise with a clear understanding of your personal vision and the character of the site.

How It Works
Consultation
Every maintenance plan begins with an on-site consultation, where we assess your garden’s existing condition and discuss your priorities. From this, we recommend a program of works tailored to your site and lifestyle.
Regular Care
Our horticulturalists return on an agreed schedule (weekly, fortnightly or seasonal) ensuring your garden continues to thrive. Each visit is planned, purposeful and documented.
For some clients, this means relaxed seasonal shaping. For others, it involves highly refined presentation for events, entertaining or daily precision.
Design Insight
Because our maintenance team works in close collaboration with Landart’s designers, we are able to guide the garden’s evolution over time. Subtle refinements, new plantings and structural adjustments can be introduced thoughtfully, ensuring the landscape remains aligned with both your taste and the natural character of the site.
