My rental property was badly in need of a spruce up and had to be done as quickly as possible. After placing an ad in the Kāpiti Community page, I decided to give Joy’s Gardening a call. She was able to provide 2 hardworking ladies who transformed my deck and side garden within 2 hours!! With still half an hour to spare, they were able to do a little bit extra that wasn’t on the list!

I highly recommend Joy’s Gardening team. The communication was great and the job done outstanding!! I will def be using their service again!!

We have been working with Jo and the team from Joy Gardening for over 6 months. They assist us in maintaining our large coastal lifestyle property in the Manawatu region. Jo acts with both professionalism and passion, and treats our garden as if it was her own. We have trusted her to manage the work and have always been highly impressed with what the team can achieve in relatively short periods of time. They have mulched areas to minimise ongoing work and costs and continue to make improvements that are above and beyond but well within the scope of services.
Our gardens have flourished and the team is happy to pivot onto new areas as they are being developed.
We appreciate the dedication and passion of the entire team at Joy Gardening and they have created a sanctuary we can enjoy without any hard work on our behalf.

Friendly, efficient, and hardworking, Howie and Lorraine always deliver top-notch results in a short amount of time, but with great care and diligence.

Project Spotlight: A planting job we are really proud of.

We recently teamed up on an exciting protect in Waikawa Beach with awesome landscape contractor Alistair Laing from Complete Contracting and talented landscape architect Rebecca Wilson from Earthwork Landscape Architects.
Our role? The planting and we are pretty chuffed with the result.

Our team put their heart and soul into it and got the work done in a fast and efficient time frame.
It’s been a great experience working together to help bring this project to life.

Check out the gallery to see how it’s coming together.
