Susan Read Landscapes - Testimonials

When we first approached Susan to do the landscape design, we don't have a clue of what to do and involve. Susan explain to us the council requirement and communicate with the builder what's need to be done, end up changing the level of our home, so that it is not too low against the road. Definitely would recommend Susan for any landscape design!

Titien and Eddie

I recently did a make over of my back garden. I really had no idea about what planting to choose and what was cheap and appropriate. So I contacted Susan who came up with great low cost solutions and organised a cheap contractor to undertake the works. This was an extremely cost effective, practical solution so I strongly recommend her services.

Susan is vastly experienced have worked for several Local Government Councils. It is not only that, and her University degree in the landscape area, but her experience that makes the whole landscape scenario so easy. Whether it is a drought tolerant garden or traditional or native, Susan has all the right ideas. I have no hesitation in recommending her
