Spring Is Coming: Get Your Home and Garden Project Ready
The days are getting longer, the weather is warming up and spring is just around the corner.
Whether you are planning a weekend DIY project, refreshing the backyard or preparing your home for the warmer months ahead, now is the perfect time to get started.
At Eco Sustainable House, we offer practical and sustainable building products that help homeowners, DIYers and trades transform outdoor spaces and get homes ready for summer. If you are looking for inspiration, here are six projects worth adding to your spring list.
Create Your Own Outdoor Bathroom
Turn an unused outdoor area into a practical, and seriously good looking outdoor bathroom.
Our Australian made copper outdoor shower kits can be paired with matching tap handle covers, towel hooks, shelves and other accessories to create a complete outdoor shower space. They are ideal for pools, beach houses, outdoor bathrooms and backyard renovations.

Put Your Green Thumb to Work
Spring means growing season. It is the perfect opportunity to transform walls, fences and unused areas into thriving vertical gardens with our GROWALL modular garden systems.
From herbs and vegetables to lush greenery and feature walls, GROWALL makes it easier to bring more life into a smaller outdoor space without sacrificing valuable ground area.

Reinforce Grass Parking Areas with Turf Cell
Is your boat, caravan or trailer damaging the grass?
Repeated vehicle movement and heavy loads can leave grassed areas worn, muddy, uneven and difficult to maintain, particularly after wet weather.
Our 50mm Turf Cell creates a reinforced base beneath natural grass. It helps stabilise the ground and distribute loads while still allowing grass to grow through the cells.
Turf Cell is a practical solution for:
-
Caravan, boat and trailer parking areas
-
Overflow car parking
-
Grass driveways and access areas
-
High traffic lawn areas
Instead of turning another section of the backyard into concrete, Turf Cell helps create a stronger and more usable surface while maintaining a natural green finish.
Create a More Stable Gravel Surface
Love the look of gravel but tired of it moving, rutting or spreading when vehicles drive over it?
Our 50mm Gravel Cell creates a stabilising grid beneath the gravel, helping hold it in place and produce a stronger, more consistent surface.
It is suitable for:
-
Driveways
-
Boat and caravan parking
-
Additional vehicle parking
-
Pathways and access areas
-
Landscaped gravel areas
A more stable surface starts with the right support underneath.
Fix Soggy Areas Before Landscaping
If pooling water, soggy lawns or poor drainage are causing problems around your property, our range of drainage cells and landscaping systems can help manage water beneath landscaped areas, artificial turf, planter boxes and more.
Spring is the ideal time to address what is happening below the surface before creating what will go above it.

Prepare Your Home Before the Summer Heat
We all enjoy the warmer weather, until the summer sun starts heating up the house.
Spring is the right time to begin thinking about external window shading. Our Australian made MODHOODS and Click 'N' Fit window awnings provide practical shade while adding a clean architectural finish to your home.
With multiple styles, sizes and colours available, there are options for everything from straightforward DIY installations to new builds and architectural projects. Getting organised during spring means your home can be ready before the summer heat arrives.

Give Your Outdoor Area a Spring Refresh
Thinking about building a new deck, extending an entertaining area or giving an existing outdoor space a fresh look?
Our Australian hardwood decking brings natural warmth and character to outdoor living spaces while offering the durability needed for Australian conditions.
Whether you are building a new deck, extending an entertaining area or creating the perfect space around an outdoor shower, spring is an excellent time to begin so it is ready to enjoy throughout summer.
