Time for a backyard blitz

Do you have a backyard that’s crying out to become an oasis, a fab space to share with family and friends – while incidentally adding to the value of your property?

If that’s a resounding yes, now’s the time to bump elbows with Mark Zimmer and George Mcbride, who are about to open Aarons Outdoor Living in Rippleside.

It might seem like Mark and George have taken a gamble with kicking off a new venture during the pandemic season, but as it turns out it’s a great time for people to be considering a backyard project. Mark explains why:

“With all the extra hours spent at home, homeowners have time to think about what their backyard means to them, how it works or doesn’t work for the family,” he says.

“A business like ours is perfectly set up to streamline any project dreamed up in this enforced downtime – but more about this later.

“Another aspect is that, with current travel restrictions and all the uncertainty ahead, the useability of our backyards is going to assume even more importance. Plus a well-designed backyard can get the holiday vibe going all year round, and who doesn’t love that?”

George says Aarons Outdoor Living is a streamlined one-stop-shop for services and products that simplify … everything.

“For starters, we have a whole team of installers – from landscapers, electricians and plumbers to plasterers and pool installers,” George says. “Our customers don’t need to co-ordinate their tradies.

“Then we offer just about everything needed to transform a backyard into a holiday retreat. We’ve tried to give a feel in our display yard of what we can create, and to inspire ideas.

“Our customers can come along, have a chat with us and gather all the information they need.”

Products and services

Swimming pools, pergolas/gazebos, Balinese huts, poolside changerooms, granny flats, cubby houses, bamboo screens, artificial grass.

Worth noting: Free quotes are obligation-free, and the option of four-year interest-free payments is on offer.

Positions available: Mark and George are looking for new staff – at both the Rippleside and recently opened Hoppers Crossing shops.

Aarons Outdoor Living, 
427 Old Geelong Road, Hoppers Crossing. 
Opens 9am-5pm daily.
