Building and infrastructure trends, spending on home improvements and emerging landscaping technology, like vertical gardens, drive landscape contractors' performance. Industry revenue is expected to have edged downwards at an annualised 0.9% over the five years through 2024-25, to $7.7 billion. This includes an anticipated contraction of 2.4% in 2024-25, as a recent hike in mortgage interest rates has slumped landscaping work on new housing developments. The Federal Government’s HomeBuilder scheme and low mortgage interest rates drove a surge in construction activity through to a peak in 2021-22, supporting landscaping contractors that install lawns and gardens in new single-unit houses. However, work in the housing market has slumped recently as the RBA has ramped up interest rates to quell inflation.
Industry revenue has declined at a CAGR of 0.9 % over the past five years, to reach an estimated $7.7bn in 2024.
Market size is projected to grow over the next five years.
