Why Choose Jungle Gardens?

Good preparation is everything when it comes to laying a new lawn — natural or synthetic. Our team follows a thorough process for every install: eliminating existing grass and weeds, loosening and levelling the soil, improving soil quality where needed, and applying the right turf underlay to give your new lawn the best possible start.

For artificial grass, our installation process is just as detailed. The base must be excavated, levelled and compacted correctly before a single roll goes down — because a rushed installation shows within months. We don’t cut corners.

Natural turf needs the right balance of sunlight, air, water and nutrients to thrive. Artificial grass needs zero of those things — but it does need to be installed properly to look and perform its best. Either way, we know what we’re doing and we’ll recommend the right option for your space, your budget and your lifestyle.

Artificial grass can last up to 25 years, uses over 50% less water than natural lawn and requires no mowing, fertilising or weeding. For the right property, it’s a genuine long-term investment.

Our soil preparation process

Good preparation is the difference between a lawn that thrives and one that struggles. Here’s how we prepare every site before laying turf:

  1. We treat existing grass and weeds with Glyphosate, following up with a second application to ensure a clean slate.
  2. We rotary hoe the soil to a depth of 100–200mm, rake out dead foliage, level the ground and add organic soil conditioner or Gypsum where needed.
  3. We apply a quality turf underlay — a blend of topsoil and organic materials — to give your new lawn the ideal balance of nutrients and minerals for strong root establishment.

Customer Testimonials

Jungle Gardens provided us a professional service from our initial enquiry to the quality finishing of pruning our very large hedge. The finish product significantly improved the appearance of our gardens. Highly recommended and good value.

Ivan Ferraro

Can’t fault the service or workmanship received by Jungle Gardens. The transformation of my front yard was amazing and Ive had many compliments. Now to start on my back yard. You won’t be disappointed by the end result or the price.

Tracy Roberts

We began with making contacts with 3 landscaping companies, only one bothered to reply us & it was Jungle Garden. Even though they couldn’t start right away & we were like a couple months away in the queue, they have kept us updated through the waiting period. This kind of attentive customer service is rare to find these days & we really appreciate it. Thanks Kevin!

Wing Cheun

Kevin from Jungle Gardens promptly attended our property to quote and start works within a few days. Matt and Andre who worked on the garden were absolutely outstanding. They worked tirelessly in some very challenging hot conditions and were more than happy to meet our expectations by checking in with us along the way. Jungle Gardens are a professional team, one that I would not hesitate recommending to others. Thanks guys, you were exceptional!!

Blue Gum

I contacted Jungle Gardens and they were there the next day to inspect the work. The quoted price was more than reasonable. The work was completed on time and on budget with a few little extras thrown in by the team on the day. More than satisfied with the end result and would recommend these guys for all your landscape needs.
