Services
Garden Design
Our garden design service creates tailored outdoor spaces combining aesthetic appeal with functional practicality. Utilising sustainable materials and innovative planting schemes, we develop detailed concept plans and construction drawings for both residential and commercial properties. With RHS award-winning expertise, our designs cater to diverse property types from contemporary new builds to historic period homes.
Landscape Construction
We deliver complete landscape construction projects from initial groundwork to final planting. Our team implements hard landscaping elements like patios, water features, and timber structures while maintaining strict budgetary control. Recent projects include low-maintenance gravel gardens and formal courtyard designs across Manchester and Cheshire, completed within specified timeframes and budgets.
Sustainable Gardens
Specialising in environmentally conscious designs, we create water-efficient gardens using recycled materials and drought-resistant planting schemes. Our RHS Gold Medal-winning 'A Place for Waste' garden demonstrated innovative use of reclaimed materials. These sustainable solutions reduce maintenance requirements while maintaining visual appeal through carefully selected plant species and permeable surfaces.
Project Management
We offer comprehensive project management for complex garden transformations, coordinating all aspects from contractor selection to final implementation. Our hourly consultancy service provides expert guidance for clients managing their own projects. This includes material sourcing, quality control inspections, and timeline management to ensure seamless execution of design plans.
Show Garden Design
With multiple RHS show garden awards, we specialise in creating impactful exhibition spaces that showcase innovative design concepts. Our award-winning 'Suspended Thoughts' and 'A Place for Waste' gardens demonstrated creative material usage and sustainable practices. These projects combine artistic vision with technical precision to create memorable horticultural displays for public exhibitions.

I've got nothing but good things to say about working with Dave and Greenvision Garden Design. I had an initial call with Dave and then h came other to see our garden and get a more detailed briefing. He then created 2 designs, we had a further meeting to review and then he created a final design which was a hybrid of his first 2 designs. Right from our first call I felt that Dave totally got what we were trying to achieve with our space. We have a very small back garden and I want to maximise it as a play space for our young daughter but also create a design that was future proofed for a potential

This has been a very positive and enjoyable journey for us. We have a new property with a square, north facing garden, measuring 10m x10m. We are delighted with the final outcome and look forward to seeing it progress with interest throughout of all of the seasons
David has made this very much a collaborative experience but has also introduced us to some fresh and exciting ideas about planting and hard landscape design. Thank you.
