What is included in soft landscaping?
Garden beds and lawns
What soft landscaping includes
Most gardens in the Hills District do not need a redesign. They need the beds brought back. The mulch that went down when the house was built has broken down to dust, weeds have moved into the gaps, the plants the builder put in have half died, and the lawn has a bald patch where the trampoline used to be. None of that is a landscaper's drawing board job. It is a few hours of honest work with a wheelbarrow, a rake and a fresh load of mulch.
That is what soft landscaping covers, and it is what we do. Soft landscaping is everything in the garden that is alive or loose: the soil, the mulch, the plants and the turf. Hard landscaping is the built stuff: paving, retaining walls, decks and concrete edging. We stick to the soft side and do it properly. Beds are cleared and edged, weeds come out by the root, the soil gets turned and topped up where it needs it, and the mulch goes down at the right depth so it actually keeps the weeds out and the water in.
Elevate Exteriors is an owner-operated crew based in North Kellyville, listed on Google as "Elevate Exterior Cleaning & Gardening". Garden work sits beside our cleaning for homes that want one local crew looking after the whole outside of the property. If you are after regular mowing or a general tidy, start at our lawn care and garden maintenance page. This page is for the one-off jobs that change how the garden looks: mulching, bed refreshes, planting and turf.

What we do
Our soft landscaping services
Four jobs that make the biggest difference to how a Sydney garden looks, done one at a time or together on the same visit.
Garden bed mulching
The job we are booked for most. Beds weeded, edged and topped with fresh mulch at a depth that keeps weeds down and moisture in through a Sydney summer. Front yards, side paths, sloping banks and the narrow beds along the fence.
Garden bed refreshes
For beds that have lost their shape. We pull the dead and struggling plants, clear the weeds, reshape the edges, turn and top up the soil, and leave the bed ready for planting and mulch. It is the difference between a tidy-up and a reset.
Planting
Plants set out the way you want them and planted into prepared soil, then watered in and mulched around. Hedging along a fence line, a row of shrubs under the front window, or groundcovers on a bank. We talk through what you want before we start.
Turf laying and lawn repair
Bald patches, a lawn lost to shade or dogs, or a new yard that never got grass. The old grass and weeds come off, the soil is levelled and prepared, and the turf is laid tight with the joints staggered so it knits evenly.
If the whole yard has got away from you, with weeds through every bed and green waste to take away, start with a garden clean-up and we can mulch straight after. Overgrown screening plants along the fence are a hedge trimming job, and they are easy to add to the same visit.
Garden bed mulching
Garden bed mulching, done in the right order
Fresh mulch is the quickest way to make a garden look looked after, and it does real work too. It keeps the soil cool and damp through a hot Sydney summer, cuts the weeds down, and stops rain splashing soil onto paths and walls. But mulch spread over weeds on a hard, dry bed looks tired within a month. The work is in what happens before the first barrow load goes down.
- 1
Clear the bed
Weeds come out by hand, roots and all, and the leaf litter and any old mulch that has turned to dust come off with them. Mulching over weeds only hides them for a few weeks.
- 2
Cut a clean edge
A sharp edge where the bed meets the lawn or path is what makes a mulched bed look finished. It also stops the lawn creeping into the bed and the mulch spilling onto the grass.
- 3
Fix the soil
Beds on new estates often sit on compacted clay with a skim of builder's topsoil. We loosen the surface and top up sunken beds so the mulch sits on soil that can take water.
- 4
Spread to depth
Fine mulch goes down at around 5 to 7 centimetres, coarse chip a little deeper. Too thin and the weeds come straight back. We keep it pulled back from plant stems, the slab and weep holes.
The photo is one of ours: a side path and beds in fresh mulch, with the shrubs trimmed back off the path. Tell us on the quote whether you already have mulch on hand or want us to organise it, and the quote will say exactly what is included.
Choosing mulch
Which mulch suits a Hills District garden?
There is no single best mulch. The right one depends on the bed, the slope, the plants and how often you want to top it up. Here is how the common types compare in a Sydney garden.
Pine bark and chip
Long lasting, holds its colour well and does not blow around much. A good all-rounder for front beds that need to look tidy for a long time. It breaks down slowly, so it feeds the soil less than finer mulches.
Eucalyptus and forest blends
Natural looking, binds together on slopes and banks, and suits native gardens and the bush-edge blocks around Glenhaven and Kenthurst. It settles into a mat, which helps on sloping beds where loose chip would wash down.
Sugar cane and pea straw
Light, soft mulches for vegetable patches and annuals. They break down fast and feed the soil, but they need topping up more often and can blow around on an exposed block.
Black or coloured mulch
Popular on newer estates for a sharp, modern look against render. Pick a dyed mulch from a reputable source and expect the colour to fade over a summer in full sun.
Under the gums in Glenhaven and Kenthurst
Blocks under tall eucalypts drop leaf and bark all year, and that litter breaks mulch down faster than on an open suburban lot. A coarser mulch lasts longer here, and a quick rake of the leaf drop between top-ups keeps the beds looking fresh. On sloping bush-edge beds, a mulch that binds into a mat stays put in a summer storm.
On new-estate clay in Box Hill and Rouse Hill
Most new beds sit on heavy clay with a thin layer of builder's topsoil. Water runs off it instead of soaking in, so mulch matters more, not less. Loosen the surface, top up with a decent garden soil where the bed has sunk, then mulch. Keep it back from the slab and weep holes on every new home.
New lawns
Turf laying and lawn repair
A new lawn lives or dies on the preparation underneath it. Turf rolled straight onto compacted clay or over old grass can look fine for a week, then yellow, shrink at the joints and settle into hollows that hold water. On the Hills clay, the ground under most new estates, that happens a lot.
So the old grass and weeds come off first. The surface is loosened and levelled so water runs away from the house rather than pooling, and where the soil is poor, a layer of underlay soil goes down for the roots to grab. The turf is laid tight, joints staggered like brickwork, edges cut cleanly to the paths and beds, and it is watered in before we leave.
Most Hills District lawns are buffalo, couch or kikuyu. Buffalo copes with part shade under a two-storey home in Kellyville, couch wants full sun, and kikuyu grows fast but runs into beds. The variety and who supplies the turf are agreed on your quote, so you know what is going down before it arrives. Once it has rooted, our lawn mowing service can take over the first cuts.
On every turf job
- Old grass, weeds and roots removed, not buried under the new turf
- Clay loosened and the surface levelled so water does not pool
- A layer of quality underlay soil where the existing soil is poor
- Turf laid tight with the joints staggered like brickwork
- Edges cut neatly to paths, beds and the driveway
- Watered in, with clear watering instructions for the first weeks
Mowing and edging a front lawn. Once new turf has knitted, a regular cut at the right height keeps it thick.
Turf installation in the Hills District
From bare clay to a lawn that takes
Turf laying is mostly ground work. The rolls go down in an hour or two; the preparation underneath is what decides whether the lawn knits in a fortnight or yellows at the joints. On a Box Hill or Rouse Hill block, where the topsoil is a thin skim over builder's clay, this is the part we never rush.
- 1
Strip the old lawn
Old grass, weeds and runners come off with a spade or turf cutter, roots and all. Kikuyu and couch left underneath will push straight up through the new lawn.
- 2
Loosen the clay
Most Hills District yards sit on heavy clay that has been driven over by builders. We break up the top layer so roots can get down and water can soak in instead of running off.
- 3
Level and grade
Hollows filled, humps raked out, and a gentle fall set away from the house and paths. Water that pools on a new lawn drowns the roots and leaves soft, sunken patches.
- 4
Underlay soil where it is needed
Where the existing soil is poor, a layer of turf underlay goes down and is raked smooth. It gives the new roots something loose and fertile to grab in the first few weeks.
- 5
Lay tight, joints staggered
Rolls go down butted hard together, joints staggered like brickwork, and cut neatly at the paths, beds and driveway. Gaps at the joints dry out and shrink first.
Choosing turf for Hills District sun and shade
The right grass depends on how much sun the yard gets, how it is used and how much edging you want to do. As a general guide, here is how the three common Sydney lawns compare. We agree the variety with you on the quote.
Soft-leaf buffalo, such as Sir Walter
Sun to part shade
The lawn most new Hills homes were handed over with, and the safe pick for a yard that gets shade from a two-storey house for part of the day. Soft underfoot, slow to run into beds, and it copes with dry spells once established. It does not like being cut short, so it suits a mow at a higher setting.
Couch
Full sun
A fine, hard-wearing lawn for open, sunny yards and the older Castle Hill and Baulkham Hills blocks where it is already the norm. It repairs itself quickly from wear and suits kids and dogs. It thins out fast in shade, and its runners head into garden beds unless the edges are kept sharp.
Kikuyu
Full sun, big areas
Fast, tough and easy to keep green on the larger blocks around Dural, Kenthurst and Glenhaven. It recovers from almost anything. The catch is that it grows fast and creeps under fences and into every bed, so it is a lawn for open space rather than a tidy front yard beside the garden.
When to lay turf in Sydney
- September to NovemberSpring: the best window
- Warm soil and mild days. Warm-season turf roots in a couple of weeks and has the whole summer to thicken up.
- December to FebruarySummer: fine, with more water
- Turf roots fast in the heat, but it dries out fast too. Lay early in the day and water it every day for the first fortnight.
- March to MayAutumn: a good second choice
- Still warm enough to root before winter, and the milder days make watering easier than in January.
- June to AugustWinter: slower to settle
- Sydney winters are mild enough to lay, but buffalo and couch root slowly in the cold. Keep foot traffic off it for longer.
Watering in and the first mow
New turf is soaked the day it goes down. After that, the first month decides how well it roots.
Weeks 1 and 2: keep it wet
Water every day so the soil under the turf stays damp, twice a day in a hot spell. Lift a corner: if the underside is dry, it needs more.
Weeks 3 and 4: water deeper, less often
Once the roots grab, back off to a deep soak every two or three days. It pushes the roots down into the clay instead of keeping them at the surface.
The first mow
Usually two to three weeks in the warm months, when a gentle tug on the turf meets resistance. Highest setting, tips only, and stay off it in between.
Re-turfing a shaded strip beside a Kellyville two-storey, or a bald patch where the trampoline sat in Castle Hill? Send a photo of the area and rough measurements through our free quote form, and tell us how much sun it gets. If the beds beside it need work too, a garden clean-up on the same visit clears the weeds before the turf goes down.
Landscaping Kellyville and Rouse Hill
Planting and bed refreshes for new Hills estates
Walk any street in Box Hill, Rouse Hill or North Kellyville a couple of years after handover and you see the same front garden: a strip of builder's mulch worn down to dirt, a few agapanthus and a lomandra or two that have struggled, and a lawn with thin patches where the soil was never prepared.
A bed refresh fixes that without starting again. We pull the dead and struggling plants, clear the weeds, cut the edges back to a clean line, loosen and top up the soil, plant out the gaps with what you have chosen, and finish with fresh mulch. Where the lawn never took, we patch it or lay new turf on prepared soil.
- Builder's mulch and topsoil replaced with something that lasts
- Dead and struggling builder's plants pulled and replanted
- Bed edges reshaped and cut back from the lawn
- Turf patched or laid where the grass never took
Beds looking tired?

Selling or leasing
Garden makeovers before a sale
The front garden is in the first photo of every listing. Fresh mulch, full beds and an even lawn tell a buyer the home has been looked after, before they step inside.
- 1
Two to three weeks before photos
Beds refreshed and mulched, gaps planted and bald lawn patched. This gives new plants and turf time to settle so nothing looks freshly dug in the listing.
- 2
The week of the photos
A final mow and edge, mulch raked fresh, and the driveway and paths cleaned. Fresh mulch photographs dark and even, which makes the whole front garden look cared for.
- 3
Through the campaign
A quick tidy before each open home keeps the beds and lawn looking like the photos. Ask about it when you book the main job.
Pair the garden with a house wash and the walls match the beds. On an established Castle Hill or Baulkham Hills home with a big front garden, doing both in the same fortnight lifts the whole street view, and booking them together is one call-out.

Pricing
What changes the price of a landscaping job
Soft landscaping is priced job by job, because the area, the materials, the weeds and the access all change the time on site. We aim to stay competitive with other Hills District crews, and we always lock in the exact price before we start.
The quickest way to a price is a photo of each bed and your suburb through our free quote form. Rough measurements help.
Area and depth
The size of the beds or lawn is the biggest factor. A couple of front beds is a short job; every bed around a big Castle Hill block is a full day.
Mulch, plants and turf
What goes in changes the quote: the type and amount of mulch, how many plants, and how much turf. The quote lists what is included and who is supplying it.
Weeds and old material
A bed that just needs topping up is quick. A bed choked with weeds, or old mulch and dead plants to clear first, takes longer and makes more green waste.
Access
Barrowing mulch down a narrow side path, up steps or onto a steep bank takes more time than tipping it at the front. Tell us where the material has to go.
Soil preparation
Turf on heavy clay needs more preparation than turf on good soil. Sunken beds may need topping up before they are mulched.
Bundling with other work
Pair a bed refresh with a mow, a hedge trim or a driveway clean and it is one visit and one call-out, priced together in one fixed quote.

Kade and his team did a great job with our exterior clean-up. The windows came up really well, the landscaping looked neat and refreshed, and they even cleaned our front brick fence without being asked, which was a really appreciated extra touch. The whole team was professional, thorough, and easy to deal with throughout.

Kade and Isaac were both brilliant. They would go above and beyond by carrying our requests that (within reason) are not really part of their usual scope of tasks. The quality of their final works is outstanding. I would highly recommend Elevate Exteriors to anyone that needs work done around the yard.

Landscaping across the Hills District
We are based in North Kellyville, so Kellyville, Rouse Hill and Box Hill are a few minutes away, and the rest of the Hills is a short drive. Not sure if we come to you? Get in touch with your suburb and we will tell you straight away.
Once the garden is done, the hard surfaces around it are often the next thing you notice. A pressure clean of the driveway and paths finishes the job, and our winter property maintenance checklist covers what else to look at through the cooler months.
What we see most, by area
- Box Hill, Rouse Hill and Kellyville
- New homes handed over with a thin skim of builder's mulch and topsoil over clay. Beds that need a proper refresh and lawns that never took.
- Castle Hill, Baulkham Hills and North Rocks
- Established gardens with big beds, mature shrubs and old mulch that has turned to soil. Refreshes and top-ups more than new plantings.
- Glenhaven, Kenthurst, Dural and Annangrove
- Larger blocks under tall gums. Leaf and bark drop breaks mulch down fast, and sloping beds want a mulch that binds.
- Bella Vista, Norwest and Cherrybrook
- Townhouses and smaller lots with narrow front beds, plus shaded south-facing yards where lawns thin out and need patching.

FAQ
Soft landscaping FAQs
Common questions about mulching, turf and garden beds. Something else on your mind? Contact us and ask, or read our exterior house cleaning guide.
What we do
What is included in soft landscaping?
Soft landscaping is the living and loose side of a garden: soil, mulch, plants and turf. For us that means weeding and edging beds, topping up soil, spreading fresh mulch, planting out beds and laying turf. Hard landscaping, like paving, retaining walls and decks, is a separate trade that we do not do. For regular mowing and upkeep, see our lawn care and garden maintenance page.
Do you build retaining walls or lay paving?
No. Retaining walls, paving, decks and concrete edging are hard landscaping and need a specialist. We work on the soft side: beds, mulch, planting and turf, around the walls and paths you already have. If your paths and driveway need a lift after the garden is done, our pressure cleaning service takes care of that.
Do I need to be home for the job?
Not usually. If we can get to the beds and the materials can be dropped somewhere sensible, we can work while you are out and send photos at the end. For a planting job, it helps to walk the beds together first so the plants go exactly where you want them. If you have questions before you book, get in touch.
Mulch
How thick should mulch be?
Around 5 to 7 centimetres suits most fine and medium mulches, and coarse chip can go a little deeper. Thinner than that and light gets through to weed seeds, so they come straight back. Much thicker can stop water reaching the soil after light rain. Keep mulch pulled back a few centimetres from plant stems and tree trunks so they do not rot.
How much mulch do I need?
Multiply the bed area in square metres by the depth in metres. A 10 square metre bed at 7 centimetres deep needs 0.7 cubic metres of mulch. Measure each bed, add them up, and allow a little extra for settling. Send us photos and rough measurements through our quote form and we will work out the amount as part of your quote.
Does mulch stop weeds?
It slows them down a lot, but only if the weeds come out first and the mulch is deep enough. Mulch blocks light from weed seeds in the soil, so fewer germinate. It will not stop weeds with deep roots or runners that are already in the bed, which is why we pull those out before any mulch goes down. A top-up every year or so keeps it working.
Does mulch attract termites?
Mulch does not attract termites from nowhere, but a deep, damp layer against the house gives them cover to reach the timber unseen. Keep mulch well back from the slab edge and never cover weep holes or a termite barrier. We leave a clear strip along the house on every job. If you already have a termite inspection, ask your inspector what gap they want.
Turf
Can you lay turf over existing grass?
Not if you want it to last. Turf laid over old grass sits on a layer that rots and settles unevenly, and the old grass and weeds often push up through the new lawn. The old grass needs to come off first, then the soil is levelled and prepared before the new turf goes down. That preparation is most of what makes a new lawn take.
How long after laying turf can you mow it?
Usually 2 to 3 weeks in the warm months, once the roots have grabbed. Lift a corner gently: if it holds firm, it is ready. Make the first cut on the highest setting and only take the tips off. In winter it can take longer. Once it is established, our lawn mowing service can keep it at the right height.
Can you lay turf in winter in Sydney?
Yes, Sydney winters are mild enough, but warm-season grasses like buffalo and couch root slowly in the cold, so the lawn takes longer to establish and you should keep foot traffic off it for longer. Late winter into spring is the sweet spot. Winter laying does need less watering than summer laying, which is one advantage.
How do you prepare the ground for new turf?
Strip the old grass and weeds off, roots included, then loosen the top layer of soil so roots and water can get in. Level it, filling hollows and setting a gentle fall away from the house so water does not pool. Where the soil is heavy clay or builder's fill, as it is across much of Kellyville and Box Hill, a layer of turf underlay gives the new roots a better start. The turf goes down on that, not on bare compacted ground.
Can you lay turf in a Sydney summer?
Yes. Warm-season turf roots quickly in the heat, but it also dries out quickly, so the watering matters more than the date. Lay it early in the day, soak it straight away, and water every day for the first two weeks, twice a day in a heatwave. After that, back off to deeper, less frequent watering. Once it has rooted, our lawn mowing service can take over the cuts.
