Our approach

Detailed landscapes for modern outdoor spaces

Sortino & Collier provides residential landscape construction across Adelaide and surrounding areas, helping clients turn plans and ideas into finished outdoor spaces that are built with precision and care.

More than a list of services

Good landscape construction is about how the whole space comes together. Rather than treating paving, planting, irrigation, lawns, retaining walls, lighting or pool surrounds as separate items, Sortino & Collier focuses on the full outdoor environment and how each element works as part of the final result.

02

Working from plans, ideas or design direction

Some projects begin with detailed plans from a landscape designer. Others start with a client's idea, a site visit and a conversation about what the space could become. Sortino & Collier can assist with basic design direction and is also connected with experienced landscape designers who can be brought into more complex projects when needed.

03

Built for high-quality residential projects

The team is well suited to residential projects where detail, finish and communication matter. This includes complete backyard transformations, entertaining areas, gardens, pool surrounds and outdoor spaces that require a careful mix of structure, materials and planting.

Process

How we work

Step 01

Site Visit

The process starts on site, talking through the space, the client's ideas, practical constraints, timing and the broader vision for the project.

Step 02

Design

Depending on the project, this may involve basic design direction, working from existing plans, or bringing in a landscape designer for a more detailed design process.

Step 03

Quote

Sortino & Collier provides clear quoting and practical conversations around scope, expectations and budget, so clients understand what is included before work begins.

Step 04

Build

During construction, the team keeps communication open, manages changes properly and works through details as they arise.

Communication

Clear communication from start to finish

Landscape construction takes place in and around people’s homes, often over several weeks. Sortino & Collier takes that seriously. The team values open communication, respectful site behaviour and practical problem-solving throughout the build.
