Our Story
Lavscapes was founded by Max Lavrent, a qualified builder with a passion for design and the outdoors. After seven years working hands-on in the construction industry, Max made the move into landscaping, and hasn’t looked back since.
His building background brings a distinct advantage to every project: the ability to carry an idea from initial concept through to a polished, quality finish. Each job benefits from solid structural expertise, combined with a keen eye for creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces.
At Lavscapes, we’re driven by a genuine passion for outdoor construction and a commitment to working closely with our clients. Clear communication sits at the heart of everything we do. We pride ourselves on being reliable, transparent, and thorough. We see every project through to completion, with no shortcuts and no disappearing acts.
Why choose us?
- Industry qualified: With a New Zealand Certificate of Carpentry level 4, Max brings structural knowledge paired with design flair to create spaces that meet New Zealand building requirements and stand the test of time.
- Presentation: Presentation matters just as much as the work itself. When you hire us, you’re choosing a team that takes pride not only in the finished result, but in how we represent your property along the way. We arrive on time, in uniform, with clean, well-maintained vehicles and a professional, well-presented crew.
- Communication focused: Clear, reliable communication is at the core of everything we do. We keep you informed, and respond promptly to any questions or changes. You’ll always know what’s happening, when it’s happening.
- We do it all: Every stage is taken care of by Lavscapes so you don’t have to juggle multiple contractors. From initial design ideas and planning, through to expert construction. Once it's established, we can continue to maintain what we’ve created.
