Landscaping isn’t just about pretty flowers and perfectly mowed lawns. Many modern landscapes utilise major construction to create incredible and sophisticated garden areas. Areas such as patios, driveways and pools require a great deal of construction work to be completed. There are many in-depth elements involved in construction work. Specific construction work should only be carried out by a licensed professional with the appropriate skills and experience to render the best results. You should also be aware of any WH&S concerns associated with landscape construction.
Construction plays a huge part in landscaping. It is vital that the construction work carried out in association with your landscaping is completed to the highest standard. The construction element of your landscaping is fundamental as it lays the foundation of your landscape. It is imperative that the construction work is completed by a licensed professional to achieve the desired results.
Our decking construction and installation services are second to none. We go above and beyond to create immaculate landscapes using various decking materials. We use materials that are capable of withstanding the elements and will still look beautiful in years to come.
Decking is a flooring solution which adds a great functional space to your home while adding a level of depth and luxury. With the right materials, decking can completely transform an area and create a whole new living area to your home. Accompany this with some other fantastic landscaping features and you are sure to be more than impressed with your new garden landscape.
Concreting
Concrete is used for a variety of different areas within construction landscaping. We use concrete for flooring solutions, footings, walls and pools. Concrete is an extremely versatile material making it easy to work with and relatively affordable. Our team come equipped with any necessary equipment and tools needed to both mix and pour concrete.
Pool Landscaping Canberra
Pool landscaping is everything that goes into the landscaping and decorating of the area around your pool. It includes everything from pouring the concrete and laying the slabs up to finishing the area, including planting foliage and erecting a fence.
At Christie’s Landscapes, our team can help you through every step, from picking plant species to choosing the perfect lighting to accent your pool area. When it comes to pool landscaping, we believe form is just as important as function. We specialise in landscaping designs that are low-maintenance, visually pleasing, and satisfy ACT pool safety legislation.
Contrary to popular belief, you have a lot of agency when it comes to your pool landscaping. You can choose a modern look with flat, hard textures to compliment your home or opt for a more natural look with foliage, plants and grass. Ultimately, how you approach pool landscaping comes down to your design vision.
While it’s essential for your pool area to look great, it also needs to be safe for your family and friends. That’s one of many benefits of working with Christie’s Landscapes – we understand ACT’s pool barrier laws and ensure all every project is fully compliant.
Here at Christie’s Landscapes, our creative landscapers are ready to work with you to bring your vision to life. We sit down with you and consider the style of your yard for a collaborative design process. Using the highest quality plants and materials from a vast network of suppliers, we can find, source and install anything required to bring your project to life.

What to Consider for Pool Landscaping
One of the most important things to consider for pool landscaping is Canberra’s pool safety laws. ACT pool safety regulations require any pool to be fenced and certified compliant with the Building Act of 2004.
This means the pool fence needs to be:
- At least 1.2m with non-climbable vertical supports
- Have no gaps bigger than 100mm
- A continuous unbroken barrier
- Made from a rigid material
- Secured by a manual latch or locking system
- Not easily accessed by a child
When landscaping a pool area, you’ll also need to ensure there’s at least 1.2m of clearance around the fence. This ensures there are no climbable objects – such as large pots or statues – that a child could use to scale the pool fence.
Outside of legislation, some of the main considerations for pool landscaping are the overarching theme of your home, and the level of maintenance you prefer. You’ll want to match your pool landscaping with the same colours and styles as the rest of your home and garden. Many people wanting a more organic look choose low-maintenance plants for their pool landscaping.

Pergolas
Adding a pergola to your home can extend your entire living space by adding a completely new undercover area to use any time of the year. We construct and install high quality pergolas into homes throughout Canberra. We source and construct our pergolas using excellent quality aluminium sheets and beams. Also, we pour the necessary concrete footings and conduct the installation construction work. We want your new pergola to last the test of time so use only galvanised or weather safe products to ensure that it lasts. Adding a whole new outdoor living space has never been easier or, more affordable.
BBQ Areas Design & Landscape
Adding a BBQ area to your home can completely change how you cook and dine. Introducing a BBQ area opens up your entire outdoor space and creates a brand-new cooking area. Adding a new BBQ to your landscape creates a great space for entertaining your friends and family and prevents harsh cooking smells from circulating inside your home. We construct beautiful barbeque areas to accompany your garden landscape and create a fantastic outdoor living area.

Much like our decking installation services we also construct and install in-built benches into your homes or business. We construct our benches using treated pine, hardwoods or composite decking to achieve the best possible result. Benches add a great accompaniment to a landscape both for its functional seating purposes and their aesthetic purposes. They work well to save space in your garden by reducing the requirement for added seating.
