Vavasour Landscapes

About

Vavasour Landscapes is a Marlborough based Landscape Design and Construction Company, specialising in garden design and outdoor construction. Founded by Andrew Vavasour in 2011 and then Kate Vavasour in 2016, Vavasour Landscapes focus is to provide clients with a design service and high quality constructed gardens where they can relax and enjoy outdoor living.

Andrew has a degree in Agriculture with majors in both soils and plants and a Post Graduate Certificate in Business. After 15 years of working in agriculture and land-based industries, Andrew set out to build a business that allowed him to share his wide range of skills. He has a love of outdoor spaces and a true understanding of how plants grow.

Kate is a landscape designer who retrained after 15 years teaching art. Kate works closely with clients to design their vision and ensure that a landscape is created that works harmoniously within its surroundings. A clear understanding of the climatic challenges in Marlborough ensures that Kate’s designs will honour the land and changing environment while still providing places for clients to truly enjoy.

Vavasour Landscapes also works with various Landscape Architects to complete their projects.

We have a team of experts as well as a highly skilled group of sub-contractors who work closely together to ensure clients have an excellent experience from the designing to the digging.

Testimonials

“Vavasour Landscapes were a pleasure to deal with. They immediately grasped what we were trying to achieve and ensured the materials and finish were in keeping with our home and garden. Both in design and in practice these guys know what they are doing.”

Tom and Kirsty Trolove

“We knew we wanted to live more outside and make our section more productive but we were struggling to make it happen. Kate and Andrew grabbed our project with both hands, oversaw the planning, and set about establishing a beautiful garden. We loved their easy communication and their innate sense of what will work and look good, all with close attention to the smallest detail. They literally took care of everything and we couldn’t be happier with the result.”

Anna and Mike Paterson

“There is nothing like planning a family wedding in your own back yard to get those long talked about projects off the ground. Vavasour Landscapes saw that we wanted a pergola that was in keeping with other structures on the property. They planned, built and completed the job in a most professional manner.”

Greg and Robyn King

“Vavasour Landscapes have dug our vision, twice. The first job was one of their first, and our bungalow on Beaver road was transformed! The second dig is in progress as we write this… and shaping Den’s (AitkenTaylor Landscape Architect) design beautifully. Andy and Kate are good listeners, communicators and doers. Their team is professional, look the part and go about their work with pride and efficiency. We would thoroughly recommend Vavasour Landscapes and would use them again in the future.”

JT and GE

“Vavasour Landscapes took a great design concept, and turned it into a tangible reality for us. Andrew’s approach throughout this project was inclusive, thoughtful and efficient. We are very pleased with the end result and we highly recommend Andrew and his team.”

Tom and Nic

“We had Andrew design and build raised garden beds for us. His vision and workmanship were top class and we are thrilled with the result.”
