Duncan did a site visit and totally blew us away with their offer to do the job at no cost. He said cancer touches so many people and this is their bit to support what the Cancer Society does for the Kapiti community. They scheduled the work for us within a few weeks and did an awesome job for us. This made it possible for us to get more done on the garden project with the help of volunteers from the community .

"I rate communication low because the quote wasn’t for exactly what we’d discussed, though I admit I didn’t closely read it. Then, when work started we again discussed my desires, which were acknowledged and confirmed. But, a crew change took place and the retaining wall height was done per the quote instead of what had been discussed. Further, the crew lead called Duncan to confirm the quoted height, because of my earlier discussion, and having confirmed the quote NEVER discussed with me the obvious mistake on the quote. Simply built a much shorter wall. So, failure to communicate with me before cutting posts left me with a much shorter wall. I’d have gladly paid extra, if I’d known the quote had been wrong. Which the crew lead obviously knew since they called Duncan to confirm. But, no additional discussion caused the problems. So, poor communication throughout the build and failure to discuss expectations to ensure accuracy of understanding of quote. Also, quote was given nearly 4 months prior to work commencing. So, it should have been revisited by them with customer before work started. Just good communication practice, that was totally missed."

"We wished to extend an existing patio area with exposed aggregate concrete to match the style and colour of an existing area. The initial inspection was followed up promptly by a quote which we accepted.

The onsite team were preparing the area within days and did a tidy and professional job of it. The pouring of the concrete was a little delayed but that was partly because of weather and partly the availability of the special aggregate mix required to match the existing.

The final finishing work was done promptly and everything left in a tidy state. The team took care to protect the garden and surrounding areas during the water blasting stage.

The final job was tidy and professionally done. An even better result than my wife and I were expecting. All round an excellent result and a pleasant team of people to deal with.

The concreting was a little more expensive than I had expected but it was a special aggregate mix which had to be brought up from Invercargill to match the existing. The final matching was excellent."

"Duncan and his team impressed us from start to finis: always professional, and with an eye for design that the competition seems to lack.

The team from Otaihanga Landscaping not only met our expectations - they exceeded them.
They built a patio and pergola for us - the build looks fantastic, and the timings were good, especially given several days of bad weather scattered throughout the project. The team matched elements and features already on the property, including features we hadn't even considered: and with options.
The net result was that the patio looked like it had always been on the property, and has quickly become our favourite spot to just sit in the sun and enjoy ourselves.

"A great team, efficient, friendly and good work on the whole project which included a large replacement deck, clearance of large amounts of vegetation and replanting over several weeks. Good advice, good service and started a couple of weeks earlier than was initially indicated. I'll be having more work done in due course."

"First class job, nothing was too much trouble. Allana and the guys came up with a great solution to the problem when we discovered we could not buy pavers of the same colour to extend our patio area.We would highly recommend these people and will definitely use them again."

"I found Otaihanga Landscaping to be very responsive to my request for a quote on the work I needed done on my property. A quote was quickly given and an estimated time for when the work was to be done. The job itself was hard work and required 2-3 people on our property. The work was carried out with little disruption and noise and again a friendly team. The end result is just what I asked for and looks great. I highly recommend Otaihanga Landscaping for any small or large gardening job."

"No job is too small for this team to do a superb job! I had a 3x3m area of garden that I just hadn't got around to digging out, so the friendly team from Otaihanga Landscaping came in and did a quick, professional job. They topped it up with high quality topsoil, and left the site spick and span, wouldn't even know they'd been there except that the garden was 100x better than before! 11/10 would definitely use again."

"We used to get a very good service from this Coy but feel that things deteriorated. We have now decided not to use them for future gardening work. We have been with them for approx 3 years and had fantastic work from them initially, and they did landscape our front garden for us, put in a retaining wall and a grassed area. We felt our instructions were not always followed and some elements of the work were not completed to our satisfaction."

"Otaihanga Landscaping built our deck 6 month’s ago. They did an excellent job but unfortunately with the long spell of dry weather some of the boards shrank. An email to Duncan brought a quick response and within a short time Reece and Yannick were around to assess the problem, collect replacement timber and replace the affected areas. We were most impressed by the promptness, efficiency and friendliness of the team, along with the quality of their product and the way they stand behind their work."

"Otaihanga Landscaping did some miraculous work on a garden I was trying to create but had given up digging in the clay, rocks and gravel. Paula had some good ideas for the garden and sourced a large tree for me. Two gardening staff removed unwanted plants, shaped garden borders, planted trees, took away gravel and topped up the garden with compost. I am so grateful to them. It is now possible for me to do the rest."

"Our weed infested sand dune of a front yard was an eyesore and an overwhelming problem for us to manage. Thankfully, Paula had the vision to create a plan that would tame the area, retain privacy from the road, create space for the planting of native species, which will eventually develop into a natural looking landscape.

The team did a fantastic job of wrangling our weeds into submission, creating pathways and planting out the natives. It wasn’t the easiest site to access. Communication was excellent, the job was done quickly and we really appreciated Paula’s monitoring of the natives plants post job- a few needed replacing. The site is now more accessible, looks much better (the neighbour say thanks too!) and in a state that we can look after. Highly recommended!"

"Duncan and his team did a fantastic job at our centre. The team leader Josh was amazing; making sure everything was run by me as the work was done. The whole team was wonderful with the children and happily answered question after question about what they were doing - they even made an effort to get to know the children's names.

The quality of workmanship was first rate and nothing was overlooked. I would recommend these guys to anyone looking for landscaping. Great to work with and a top notch end product."

"We instructed Otaihanga Landscaping to clear and level an area of overgrown shrubs/trees at the rear of our property and completed the job by laying ready lawn. We were hugely impressed by the standard of work as it was a job we would have found difficult to complete having just purchased the property and also that we have two young children. The completion of this lawn has made a huge difference to our outdoor space and is now useable for our kids. The whole process of the instruction/quote/time-frame was great and communication was spot-on."

"Our project was a major job involving almost complete ground clearance, extensive paving, fencing, new lawn and planting. Despite some extreme weather conditions (including a shed blown away by a tornado) Duncan, Paula and their hard working teams delivered all work to a very high standard of construction and planting. They were extremely pleasant to deal with and a pleasure to have around. Paula was always open to discussion on planting choices and revision of our original plan. Though we had a couple of hiccups along the way, mostly generated by the extreme weather, every attempt was made to put them right without question or additional cost. The whole project was completed exactly on budget and we are very happy with the result -(including the replacement shed)."
