Why CMC

–
Our goal as an organisation is to be a sustainable chemical free company by 2019. We believe in a greener future and as gardeners we have a responsibility to ensure we are using sustainable practices that are safe for people and the environment. This is why we have made the commitment to contributing to a greener future for everyone.

Our Systems

–
We believe in using safer products and are transitioning existing clients to a chemical free steam weed eradication system. We will be the first company in Brisbane to use steam to kill weeds and we will look to support and guide other companies wishing to take the same direction.

We believe in supporting our customer’s vision and understand how important it is to ensure excellent customer service, professionalism and care when on site. We believe in simple processes that ensure a sustainable future for our clients and the environment.

With her positive attitude, caring nature and contagious energy, Kristy has developed many new client relationships for the business. Kristy is not only actively involved in the community, she is also always looking to support, partner and collaborate with other like minded people and businesses.

What our clients say about us

  • I manage several retirement villages in SE Queensland and work closely with Lucas and the team from CMC Landscapes. They have a consultative approach and their delivery and attention to detail is excellent. All of our residents without exception, appreciate the friendly and professional service that is constantly delivered, and I have no hesitation in recommending CMC if you are requiring a top quality and affordable job.
    – Peter Grace | Village Manager Boronia Heights
  • I have been using the services of CMC Landscapes now for nearly 4 years at various aged care facilities in the Brisbane and the Logan city areas. They provide a high standard of service that in my experience lacks in their competitors within the industry. They are able to provide and apply knowledgeable and competitive solutions to all our landscaping needs. I highly recommend CMC Landscapes and look forward to our continued relationship into the future.
