How much does landscaping cost in Harare?
Costs depend on garden size, scope (soft landscaping like plants and lawns versus hard landscaping like paving and structures), soil conditions and material choices. Small refreshes start modestly, while complete garden transformations represent a bigger investment. After a free site visit we provide an itemised quotation so you can see exactly where your money goes and phase work if needed. See our landscaping cost guide for a detailed breakdown.
Which areas of Harare do you serve?
We work across the entire city – including Borrowdale, Mount Pleasant, Highlands, Greystone Park, Chisipite, Avondale, Belgravia, Mandara, Msasa, Warren Park and surrounding suburbs – as well as Chitungwiza, Ruwa and projects nationwide including Bulawayo, Mutare, Gweru and Masvingo.
How long does a typical landscaping project take?
A garden tidy-up or planting refresh may take a few days. Full garden renovations usually run two to six weeks, and larger construction projects (paving, water features, sports pitches) vary with scope. We agree a realistic programme up front and report progress regularly.
Do you offer garden maintenance after installation?
Yes. We offer weekly, fortnightly and monthly maintenance programs covering mowing, pruning, feeding, weeding, seasonal replanting and system checks. Many clients begin with a renovation and stay with us for years of maintenance care.
Can you add irrigation to an existing garden?
Absolutely. Retrofitting irrigation systems into established gardens is one of our most popular projects. We map existing planting, group plants by water needs, and install zoned drip or sprinkler systems with timers – minimal disruption, immediate water savings.
Which paving material is best for driveways in Harare?
Both concrete and interlocking pavers last decades when the base is built correctly. Concrete offers the best initial value; pavers allow easy individual repairs and a premium look. Gravel suits secondary and farm driveways. Read our paving cost guide and cobblestone vs paving comparison to decide.
Do you build sports pitches for schools and clubs?
Yes – sports pitch construction is a core service. We build football, rugby and multi-use fields with proper sub-bases, drainage, irrigation and natural or hybrid turf for schools, clubs, municipalities and hotels across Zimbabwe.
Are water features high maintenance?
Not when designed correctly. Properly sized pumps and filtration keep water clear with minimal effort – typically seasonal checks and occasional algae control. We build features with maintenance access designed in, and offer servicing visits. See our pond maintenance tips.
What is the best season for planting in Harare?
Early summer (October to November), just before consistent rains, is the main planting season. Autumn (March to May) is ideal for trees, shrubs and perennials while soil is still warm. Our seasonal planting guide covers the full calendar.
Do you offer free quotes?
Yes – every quotation begins with a free site visit and an itemised, no-obligation proposal. Call +263 773 969 999 or request a quote online and we will respond within one business day.
