New Zealand · September 2026
Nobody hires a landscaper the same day they search for one. It is a considered decision, judged mostly on photos of work you have already finished. Your website has to survive being compared for a few weeks, not just look good for a moment. We build it first, from what is already public about you, and then give it to you. It costs nothing to have and nothing to keep.
“Landscaper near me”, “garden design Rotorua”, “landscaping quote”: these searches start weeks before any work begins, and people usually look at two or three results side by side before calling anyone. There is no emergency version of this trade pulling someone in at 11pm.
That makes the website's job simple to state and hard to fake: show enough finished, photographed work that someone scrolling on their phone decides you are worth a call ahead of the next name on the list.
Here is the part worth being straight about: anyone can call themselves a landscaper in New Zealand. There is no licence, no minimum standard, and nobody checking. That is exactly why the few real trust signals that do exist matter more in this trade than in a licensed one, not less.
Registered Master Landscapers is New Zealand’s only nationally recognised accreditation for the trade. Members have been checked against a real standard (drainage, footings, plant selection, health and safety) before they can use the mark. If you are accredited, put it where people can see it. With no baseline licence underneath the whole trade, that checked status is doing more work than it would almost anywhere else.
Nothing. We build the page from what is already public about your business and send you the link. If you want it, we put it live and you pay us nothing for it. There is no card, no trial, and no fee that starts later. It sits at an address of ours, not your own domain name, and it carries one line at the bottom saying we built it.
It asks one thing of you. Once a year we send one message asking whether the details are still right, and two reminders over the month after it. If we cannot reach you, the page comes down — a page with your name and a wrong phone number on it is worse for you than no page at all. It also comes down when you ask, for any reason or none, within five New Zealand working days at the latest, and we will not ask you why.
The only thing you can pay for is changes made for you. You message us a new price, new hours, a holiday closure or a photo of the new van, and we make the change, within five New Zealand working days at the latest. That is NZ$299 for the year, and it includes your own domain name registered in your business name and email on it. No monthly fee, no minimum term, and it does not renew itself. No GST is added. The full terms are here.
If somebody else would suit you better — and for plenty of landscapers they would — we have listed every option we could find, with the price each company publishes on its own site: who should build your website.
We build the first version of your page from your Google Business Profile, your Facebook page, and anything else already public about your business, then send you the link. You look at it before anything happens. If you do not want it we take it down, you owe nothing, and we will not contact you about it again.
If you have not claimed your Google Business Profile yet, it is worth doing regardless, because it is where your reviews and photos of past gardens show up first, often before anyone reaches your website at all. The walkthrough is here: how to claim your Google Business Profile in New Zealand.
Being straight with you: we build and host the website, not your Google Business Profile, because that needs a verified New Zealand address and we are not in New Zealand. The walkthrough above covers the whole process yourself; it takes about twenty minutes and it is free.
No. Anyone can call themselves a landscaper. There is no licence, no minimum standard, and nobody checking. That is exactly why the few real trust signals that do exist matter more here than in a licensed trade.
Yes, if you have it. It is New Zealand’s only nationally recognised accreditation for the trade, and with no licence underneath the whole industry, being checked against a real standard is one of the clearest things you can show.
Photos, more than almost any other trade. People planning a garden or section are judging your work visually before they ever call. Along with that: the towns you cover and a phone number that gets answered.
For a lot of trades, a Facebook page covers most of what people need day to day. What it does not do well is show up when someone searches your trade and town on Google rather than on Facebook, and it can look less permanent to someone checking you out before they call. We wrote the comparison up properly here: Facebook page or website, for a New Zealand trade business. If you are not showing up in a search at all — not even for your own business name — here is why, in the order it usually happens.
Send us your business name and the town. We will tell you honestly whether we can build one, and if we can, we email you the link to look at. There is nothing to pay at any point for the page itself.

Send us your business name and the town. We will tell you honestly whether we can build one — this is one person, so we cannot build for everyone who asks. Either way there is nothing to pay.
