Testimonials

Sally Moore

 Mark was a pleasure to work with and took my vision and added to it with his experience and knowledge. He was always pleasant, communicative and responsive and the final product is amazing. I would highly recommend him to work on any landscaping dreams you have.

Verified Customer

Mark and his team did an amazing job landscaping an area for my sauna. He was professional, creative and a pleasure to work with. The results were beyond my expectations. And although we ended up using more materials than his quote called for, the time it took was less so overall the invoice was around 10% less than the quote!

I Would totally recommend Mark.

Verified Customer

Janine Crampton

This is the second time Mark has done work for me and I wouldn’t go to anyone else for my landscaping needs. He really knows his stuff,  understanding what I wanted even when I wasn’t quite sure myself, and was respectful of the limitations of my budget. His team is a pleasure to have around and I couldn’t be happier with the end result of their work.

Frequently asked questions

  • How much does professional landscaping cost in the Northern Rivers?


    It depends on materials, access and design. Natural stone options like sandstone or basalt are more premium than concrete sleepers but last longer and look better over time. 


    Generally you can expect to pay between $250 - $950+ per m2 around Byron Bay & Northern Rivers. 


    Call Mark for a custom quote and get the exact price for your landscaping project.


  • Do I need a landscape designer before starting construction?

    Nope, Gondwana (ahem, Mark) are pros at landscaping. Some may even say artist. He discusses your goals, then moves Earth, creating beautiful gardens on a ridiculous scale. Some clients simply hand over the keys and say, "Go for it".

  • Can you handle both garden design and construction?


    A stonemason selects, cuts, and lays stone to create durable and visually striking structures. In Byron Bay, we  work with locally sourced sandstone, basalt, and bush rock to build everything from dry-stacked walls to bespoke garden features. 


    We handle everything from site prep and foundation work to fine finishing.


  • What makes Gondwana different from other landscapers in the Northern Rivers?


    How long do retaining walls last?

    With proper construction and drainage, our stone retaining walls can last decades with minimal maintenance.


  • Do you offer maintenance after construction?

    Yes. Once your new landscape is complete, our maintenance team can take care of ongoing lawn care, irrigation, pruning, and seasonal planting.


    Regular upkeep protects your investment and keeps your outdoor space looking beautiful all year round.

  • What’s the best time of year to start a landscaping project?

    In the Northern Rivers, landscaping can happen year-round, but the drier months (typically late autumn to early spring) are ideal for construction. We don't mind getting our hands dirty, and winter can be a great time for planting.

  • Do you work with difficult or sloping sites?


    If we’re talking bang-for-buck, treated pine sleeper walls are usually your most affordable option. 


    They’re like the corrugated tin of landscaping – practical, honest, and they get the job done.


    At Gondwana, though, we don’t just chase cheap. 


    We look at the full picture – your soil, the slope, the lifespan you’re after. 


    Because a retaining wall isn’t just holding back dirt, it’s shaping your entire garden’s story. 


    Sometimes a budget-friendly timber wall makes perfect sense. Other times, spending a little more on local stone gives you decades of low-maintenance.


  • Are your landscapes sustainable and low-maintenance?

    Sustainability is at the heart of everything we build. We use native plants, smart irrigation, and natural stone to create landscapes that thrive with minimal upkeep.


    Our goal is to design gardens that are easy to maintain and gentle on the environment.
