why yards.
Very impressed with the work Ben and his team have been doing to bring my gardens and lawn back to life. Very professional team offering great advice and service. Would thoroughly recommend giving Yards a call for any landscaping/garden work required.
Wendy | Norman Park Client
Since Yards have been tending to our garden, not only have I freed up the little available time I had at weekends, we now enjoy what is such a beautifully kept garden. Thanks to Dave, Matt, Ben and rest of team at Yards.

We had the great fortune of finding Ben French of Yards Landscaping about three years ago. He designed and created our most fabulous garden in Manly near Brisbane in our newly acquired house and has been responsible for the maintenance ever since, winning awards for it on the way. Most of our time is spent on Lord Howe Island in our business Arajilla Retreat but when we come to the mainland we have the fortune to enjoy Ben's creation, perfectly maintained and growing more beautiful every time we return. Ben's design skills and dedication as well as his great staff are what makes it all work.
Janne & Bill | Manly Clients
I was fortunate to connect with Ben from Yards to design my inner city townhouse courtyard - from our initial meeting to discuss design and options, Ben's knowledge and engagement ensured that I had a outdoor room designed for my lifestyle and enjoyment. Since the initial courtyard design, I have not hesitated to have Ben and his talented team work on my other gardens.
Michelle | Kangaroo Point Client
Ben and his team are true professionals . They have transformed our garden. It is more beautiful than I could have imagined.
Kerryn and Mark | Norman Park Clients
Having maintained our yard for many years ourselves, we are extremely grateful to have Yards’ assistance with both mowing and monthly maintenance. We have found them to be very professional and highly skilled at what they do. I would highly recommend them.
Angela | Norman Park Client
We were very fortunate to have the Yards landscaping team design and create our beautiful new front garden. Ben's meticulous designing and planning, Sam's attention to every detail and the team's professionalism have been outstanding. They created a stunning garden for us by day which transforms to a spectacular garden at night. Thank you, it is just perfect.
David and Carolyn | Manly Clients
The Yards team was fantastic, going above and beyond what I expected. They were friendly, hard working and did a great job. Totally recommend them to anyone needing work done.
Therese | Ashgrove Client
The Yards team headed by Ben French are professional, prompt and polite to work with. Thanks to Ben for his timely attention to our irrigation issues it was all sorted in a day and the garden is thriving. I have no hesitation in recommending Ben as a professional Designer and Landscaper, and his team at Yards.
Regina | New Farm Client
Ben and the entire staff at Yards take such pride in their work. It's lovely to see such a dedicated team in action. Their knowledge and skills are second to none.
Dylan and Gillian | Tarragindi Clients
After many failed attempts at having our garden revamped, often by groups or individuals selected on price alone, we found Ben and his company, Yards. Ben provided his assessment in a highly professional manner with reasons behind his choices of plants, type and scope of maintenance and a detailed quote. We could not have been happier with the results over the last two years. The garden looks amazing, the plants selected for planting have grown exactly as predicted creating a haven of different shades of greens and flowering plants. Maintenance is always preceded by a summary of what will be needed and conducted. Ben’s team is highly professional, demonstrates a great knowledge of horticulture and works tirelessly. There is a cost associated with the result, but it is worth it. We are pleased to provide an excellent rating for Yards.
John & Annie | Raby Bay Clients
I've been very impressed with Ben and Yards. They were initially recommended by a friend and I asked for an opinion. I have to admit that the initial quote was a lot more than I expected, but then I've never had my garden landscaped before so didn't really know what was the norm. What I will say is that if you want a quick superficial overlay of compost and a few plants then they're not for you. But what I hadn't really thought about until I saw their work was that they're not about a quick short-term pretty look, they're more about re-designing your garden for the long term. There was a lot of soil and rubbish removal - down to the bare bones of the old garden. After that there was soil, mulch, plants, turf, irrigation, borders and electrics (including lighting and watering systems), gravelling and a concrete edging. Much more involved and comprehensive than I expected, and left a beautiful result. A nice touch was the hedge trimming and power washing of the drive that hadn't been included, and the unexpectedly thorough follow-up; Ben is obviously passionate about what he does and wants to make sure it works, rather than signing off once the job is done. Happy to recommend, and would use again.
Adam & Georgina | Coorparoo Clients
The friendly and expert staff at Yards have transformed our garden. You quickly realise you are in the hands of professionals who apply their years of experience to all aspects of your garden. They are also very flexible in working arrangements, happy to fit in with your requirements. We would happily recommend them.
Reg and Wendy | Camp Hill Clients
Ben is an amazing small business owner - great guy, wonderful team, awesome knowledge and so very happy to share his expertise and work with you to bring your thoughts to life. Would not hesitate to recommend you connect with Ben to discuss your ideas - you will be very glad you did!
Kirsten | Manly Client
Love our garden!
Tina Marie | Wynnum Client
Ben and his team from Yards were quick to provide a quote, and able to do our watering system repairs in a very timely manner. The communication from Yards is always excellent and I will continue to use them for all my garden and landscaping needs. A great team!
Sarah | Toowong Client
Ben's recommendations, replanting, structural and irrigation work all met with our approval and were carried out by his hardworking, reliable and friendly team members in the same very satisfactory manner as all the work they had previously undertaken for us. We look forward to engaging Ben again later in the year and for future projects and are always pleased to recommend him to friends and colleagues.
Tom & Mary | Tarragindi Clients
It's good knowing you can trust a business. I've been a customer for three years, receiving help varying from watering nursery stock during drought to installing a garden arch, replacing a broken gate, installing a new boundary fence and, most recently, refurbishing a fiddly garden stairway. Yards has helped sustain and improve my house and garden. Thank you so much.
Jerry | Wynnum Client
Ben and the team at Yards are simply the best in the business.
Mali | Wynnum Client
Ben and the team at Yards are one of a kind and a pleasure to work with. Friendly and professional at all times!
Karlen | Brisbane Supplier
Recently purchased a property that Ben and the crew from Yards currently serviced, not only did Ben find time to do a house visit and explain all the features of the garden/ Irrigation system/ garden lights (didn't even know where there) and to explain and recommend what needed to be done to maintenance wise also offered his expertise to ANY issue/s and questions I threw at him from types of plants to lawn care and preventative measures to ensure my garden was well kept... listened to what I wanted done and even recommended plumbers etc. and we went from there.. The process from talking to Ben to quote to install was painless and Ben and crew were professional in all aspects ... Look forward to the team at Yards for all my future projects and know they are only a phone call away for any questions and requests I have! Awesome people for an unreal result!
