A short note to our Most Valued Customers

WOW!!
What a start to 2022 these first few months have been.
Please let me start by saying a big THANK YOU.


THANK YOU firstly for your business and your trust in LANDSCAPE SOLUTIONS with
the stewardship of your gardens and lawns . We love what we do and take this
responsibility very seriously
THANK YOU for your patience As we quite literally ’wade’ our way through the incessant rain and interruptions from the weather.

Did you know that the average rainfall in Sydney is 1,175mm per YEAR?

Did you know that in the first three months since January 1 st , we have had over 1, 4 00mm of rain to date (not including this week)

You’ve seen it for yourself at your home and at your workplace and at your local
sporting grounds…saturated gardens and lawns at maximum field capacity,
where just walking on lawns leaves you up to your ankles in mud and garden
washouts and over growth are a daily occurrence.
THANK YOU for your understanding As COVID continues to impact all our lives with
family becoming unwell and isolation rules keeping people out of the workplace. Our
business, like yours no doubt has been adversely affected but as trade based teams,
our people can not unfortunately work from home, so we have tussled every day to
scramble teams and get coverage across our job sites.
THANK YOU for your care and respect of our team members. This amazing group of
tradespeople that we call team ’’, are waking up every day knowing they will be working
in the rain and battling a litany of landscape issues, such as washouts, abnormally
excessive growth, lawns unable to be accessed, blocked drains and so on…yet, they
persevere, and our team prides itself on doing great work, knowing that the rain, and
covid and staff shortages will all eventually backdown . Our team know that they work
for a business such as Landscape Solutions, where we will always see the job through
and come up with different ideas on h ow to get the job done.
We are lucky to have such a great bunch of people at Landscape Solutions. So, THANK YOU,
for allowing us to build such a strong and talented group of people who LOVE working
on your sites….and remember, the rain will stop one day 😊
