Services
Garden Design
Creating bespoke garden designs tailored to individual needs and budgets. Our process begins with comprehensive site assessments and client consultations to develop functional, aesthetically pleasing outdoor environments. We specialise in transforming both small urban gardens and large country estates through innovative spatial planning and expert planting schemes.
Landscape Planning
Comprehensive landscape planning services covering all project stages from initial surveys to final implementation. We produce detailed layout plans, construction drawings and setting-out specifications that enable accurate cost estimation and efficient execution. Our approach ensures seamless integration of hard landscaping elements with sustainable planting schemes.
Planting Schemes
Expert planting design services that combine horticultural knowledge with artistic flair. We create year-round interest through carefully curated plant combinations suited to local soil conditions. Clients can choose between instant impact with mature specimens or phased planting for gradual development within budget constraints.
Garden Renovation
Specialist garden renovation services for properties with existing but outdated landscapes. We assess current layouts for functionality, update planting schemes to modern standards, and implement improvements that enhance usability while preserving valuable original features where appropriate.
Site Surveys
Detailed site survey services forming the foundation for effective design solutions. We document existing features, topography, soil conditions and microclimates to inform the design process. For larger sites, we coordinate professional land surveying services to ensure technical accuracy.
