Landscaping in Fingal
About this area
Fingal is a small community near the ocean beach side of the Peninsula, close to Portsea and Sorrento. Properties here are typically large, with a coastal and semi-rural character. The ocean beach exposure and sandy soils define the construction environment.
Building in Fingal
Sandy soils, ocean exposure and relatively flat topography are typical of Fingal. Salt and wind are significant considerations for material specification. Sub-base preparation and drainage management are standard construction requirements.

"Working with Formed Landscapes was a dream. From the initial contact via phone with Michael to the first meeting onsite when we had a building site and plans for the general ideas for the garden we had a good feel from the outset. Michael was able to take our initial plans and adapt these taking into consideration our sloping block. The result is an indigenous native garden we are thrilled with together with wicking beds for veggies and an orchard area. We had some construction challenges that meant the garden had to be built in two stages which Michael and his team took in their stride. We have no hesitation in recommending them.”
