"I recently used Tim's Lifestyle Services for the first time, and it certainly won’t be the last! Tim was super knowledgeable, did an awesome job with my sheep and lambs, and took the time to explain everything he was doing, even answering all my endless questions. I only have a small lifestyle block, so I really appreciated him coming out to help with my little herd. Thanks so much, Tim!

"Really glad I had the good fortune to engage Tim to manage my large scale landscaping project. It included a complete site clear of the 450SQM backyard of mature trees, original 70s concrete paths and pavers, overgrown jungle and debris. Tim also built a large new boundary fence, retaining wall, created a paved area and deck with a privacy screen and laid a lot of grass seed. It was a huge project (one that other landscapers admitted was too big for them). Tim’s pricing was competitive, he always did what he said he would do when he said he would do it, he was patient and explained options. He responded to texts, calls and emails promptly and I trusted that he would deliver the project. I’m thrilled with the end result and complete transformation. I’ve already recommended him to others and would 100% get Tim to do future landscaping work."

"Throughout the project, Sculptaview did a fantastic job.
From the moment Tim viewed our project, "anything was possible". He provided us promptly with a quote with two cost alternatives for fencing and a retaining wall to solve our issues. Clear communication was apparent every step of the way...right from timing of the project to completion. The team on site, Brad and Sean, were extremely pleasant to be working alongside and were so accommodating of every query! The workmanship was second to none...good tradesmen who cleaned up as they progressed and always at the end of the day.As one part of the project was a boundary fence and retaining wall, we were concerned for our neighbour's property but these guys showed due respect and as Tim says"left the property as though no one had ever been there" On top of this, Tim, Brad and Sean went the extra mile with a couple of modifications to finish the project as good as we dreamed of.
We would recommend Scupltview any time....you guys made it an enjoyable experience!"

"Tim and the team were great from the start, they had ideas on what would work for our property and listened to what ideas we had about the deck, stairs, fence, balustrade and planters. He priced up everything we discussed very clearly and that allowed us to make some minor changes before planning the work in. The weather was very changeable and played a bit of havoc with the timing, but Tim kept us informed of start date and was able to work in with our timing. The team understood what we wanted and carried it out efficiently and with really good quality workmanship and communication despite the weather, then tidied everything up at the end.

"Tim is very professional to deal with and honours his commitment to deliver good-quality work. I had a small job on my patio and adjoining garden done by Scultpaview last year. After 6 months, the concrete pad showed some problems he had not experienced before which may have been due to the material used. Tim came back on it right away without any fuss or excuses and did resolve the problem using a different material that is often used in the dairy factory floor, . He also fixed my gate without additional charge."

"I've used Tim and his team before, and as usual they never disappoint. This time I wanted a deck with bits chopped out to allow for existing trees; a quite complex curved path that got bigger as the job progressed (quite a considerable amount of scope creep in this project) and basically a complete transformation of my previously useless back garden. As usual, nothing was too much trouble; my request for curvy not straight paths, extra work here there and everywhere, and the team also thought of small enhancements to make the deck a great place for toddlers. I now have a wonderful back garden area that is a joy to use. The team were prompt, courteous, kind and efficient. Didn't promise what they couldn't do, over-delivered on what they could. They gave me valuable advice and were highly professional in all aspects of the work. Thanks Tim, Brad, Kieran and Brian for an excellent job. You'll always be my first port of call."

The final results of this project (entailing site clearing and plants/trees removal, excavations, 40 sqm decking with built-in planters, a new screen and a new gate, repairs and extension to current fencing, building of a raised feature area and of a veggie garden etc) have in general exceeded our expectations.

We contacted 4 suppliers for this job, and Tim's quote was the highest in terms of price, but also the most detailed, and we must say that we have been overall happy with paying a fair price for a high-quality job.
