Turf Installation for Porepunkah
On the Porepunkah flats, the preparation matters even more than usual. Alluvial sand and gravel drain beautifully and hold almost nothing, so turf laid straight onto native ground dries out fast, roots shallowly and never really thrives.
That's why we don't skip the underlay. Existing lawn and weeds come out, compacted ground is cultivated, then the site is graded and levelled so water runs away from the house. A good depth of quality turf underlay goes down and gets screeded level, giving new roots a moisture-holding layer to establish into before they hit the gravel below.
Open Porepunkah blocks tend to get full sun and plenty of wind, which suits hard-wearing warm-season varieties. We'll look at your aspect, soil and how much traffic the lawn will take, then recommend a variety that fits rather than the one that happens to be on the truck.
Site Preparation
Old lawn and weeds removed, compacted ground cultivated, then graded and levelled so water moves away from the house rather than toward it.
Underlay Soil & Levelling
A proper depth of quality turf underlay spread and screeded level, giving roots a moisture-holding layer to establish into above free-draining gravel.
Premium Turf Supply
Fresh turf from trusted growers, cut and delivered so it goes down the same day instead of sitting on a pallet losing condition.
Variety Selection
Practical advice on what suits an open, sunny block, from hard-wearing Kikuyu and self-repairing Couch to Buffalo where there's shade to deal with.
Laying, Rolling & Watering In
Turf laid with tight staggered joins, cut in neatly around beds and paths, then rolled and watered to drive strong early establishment.
Aftercare Advice
A watering and mowing plan written for sandy ground, where little and often beats one long soak while the lawn takes.

G'day, I'm Lukas
Alpine Fence, Lawn & Landscaping is a locally owned and operated family business based in Myrtleford, proudly servicing the Alpine region and North East Victoria.
While Alpine Fence, Lawn & Landscaping is a new business, the experience behind it isn't. With 18 years of experience across the fencing, landscaping and civil construction industries, I've operated machinery and delivered everything from residential projects to large-scale civil works. Along the way, I've learned that every great project starts with a quality foundation, careful planning and clear communication.
Growing up on a large family-owned farming property and holding formal qualifications in horticulture and agriculture has given me a deep understanding of the local landscape, soils and conditions. Combined with years of practical, hands-on experience, that knowledge allows me to create outdoor spaces that not only look great but are designed to perform in the unique conditions of Victoria's High Country.
My approach is simple: turn up when I say I will, communicate honestly, take pride in my work and never cut corners. Whether it's a new fence, retaining wall, lawn, excavation or complete landscape transformation, every project is completed with the same care, attention to detail and workmanship I'd expect on my own property.
