Bronze, Residential Build (Up to $250,000), Landscapes of Distinction Awards 2025. Glendowie, Auckland. By By Design Concrete and Paving Ltd.

An outdated poolside area featuring decaying timber decking has been transformed into a modern, low-maintenance outdoor living space, catering to a family eager to enhance their surroundings while remaining in their home. By Design Concrete and Paving took on the role of primary contractor across multiple trades, reconstructing the deck with timber topped with tiles, all compliant with full building consent for height, new pool fencing, and ensuring weathertightness.

Unforeseen issues beneath the previous deck and a pool requiring relining were managed expertly without compromising quality. The design includes a floating step, accessible wheelbarrow-friendly pathways, and low-maintenance artificial turf, creating a resilient and future-ready poolside that the family and their dog will enjoy for many years to come.

Significance of the Project

Each Registered Master Landscaper has attained the right to display the mark, ensuring that the professional you engage is knowledgeable, responsible, and supported by a national organization that guarantees their quality of work. Locate a Registered Master Landscaper at masterlandscapers.org.nz.
