About the crew
Hardscaping
without the
corporate fluff.
Paved n Scaped is a Ballarat crew built on a simple obsession: doing the job once, and doing it right. The bloke quoting the job is the same one laying the brick and checking the falls.
From recycled-brick paths to pool surrounds, retaining walls and real lawns. We keep the trades in one place so the finish does not get lost between contractors.
Who runs the jobs
That bloke is Lachie Baker, the owner. Lachie has over 10 years on the tools and he is on site for every job, not just the quote. Ring him and you get the person who is actually going to build it.
Born and bred in Ballarat.

How we work
- 01Show up when we sayIf we're booked in for Monday, we're on site Monday. No ghosting, no rolling start dates.
- 02Drainage first, pretty secondFalls, ag-pipe and cut-offs sorted before a paver goes down. Water heads away from the house, every time.
- 03Clean site, every arvoTools packed, offcuts binned, driveway swept before we knock off. You're not living on a building site.
- 04Straight answersItemised quote up front. If something changes on site we ring you before we do it, not after.
