About
In 1983 I began trading as MacGregors Home Services. Our services included; painting,
plastering, timber construction, garden maintenance, and landscape construction.
It quickly became apparent, that I have a flare for landscape construction, and
certainly enjoyed it a lot more than painting houses.
In 1984 the business evolved into MacGregors Landscaping.
Around 1990 I joined the Landscape Industries Association of Tasmania (LIAT).
Through my involvement with the association, and it's members, I gained valuable
technical skills and design inspiration.
In 1995, we entered the LIAT Awards Competitions and were dual winners of the
'Landscape Construction under $5000' catagory with Calverley Landscaping.
In 1997 we again entered the Tasmanian Landscape Awards and won the following:
• 'Landscape Construction over $10000' Catagory
• Houseing Industry Association (HIA) award for 'Improvement of Appearance
to a New Home'
• 'Best use of Irrigation'
We were runner up in these catagories:
• Residential Design and Construction
• Residentail Construction under $10000
In 2001, we were featured in 'House & Garden' (October Issue)
In 2002, we were featured in 'Burke's Backyard' Gardening magazine (Feburary
Issue)
