Backyard of Templestowe home prepared for Eureka Premium VG Kikuyu turf installation with new drainage and landscaping.

As part of a full landscaping project, this new Templestowe property needed a durable, fast-establishing lawn to complement its contemporary design. Working with Laguna Landscapes, we delivered a complete outdoor solution, including drainage works, soil preparation, and installation of Eureka Premium VG Kikuyu turf.

Project considerations

The Templestowe homeowners wanted a low-maintenance, green outdoor area to complement their new home’s modern design. Their goal was to create a usable space that balanced beauty with practicality, perfect for entertaining, family gatherings, and everyday relaxation.

Backyard in Templestowe featuring newly laid Eureka Premium VG Kikuyu turf bordered by landscaped garden beds.

With a new-build property, the site required complete preparation from the ground up. Laguna Landscapes implemented drainage solutions and graded the soil for effective water flow before turf installation. Irrigation adjustments and edging details were incorporated to ensure consistent growth and a neat finish throughout the landscape.

Budget: Within client’s expectations, focused on long-term resilience

Timeline: Four days, including drainage and full turf installation

Irrigation Access: Pop-up sprinklers surrounding the entire perimeter of the backyard gave the area irrigation coverage.
