Successful garden design is a combination of many factors, the most important one being a good relationship between the designer and the client.
I will always try to discover the clients' particular needs & tastes and combine these with their ideas, the size, aspect & character of the house & existing garden to create something original, practical and beautiful.
The first consultation is free, during which I will discuss all the options with you and sketch out some ideas.

There are basically three types of deck board to choose from softwood, hardwood or composite, and we have built many decks from all three.
Cedar which is a beautiful softwood, naturally resistant to insects and mould (15 - 20 years without regular treatment).
Hardwood such as Balau or Oak is the best choice where real wood is required, it will last longer (30+ years without regular treatment) and has a more attractive colour & grain than treated pine.
Composite decking is now becoming more popular, with many manufacturers offering different products.

Light in a garden can be magical.
It can transform a space and extend the hours that it gets used.
It does, however, need to be carefully planned - too much light and the magic is gone, too little and the garden is unusable at night.
We work with qualified, registered electricians to plan and install a bespoke system to light your garden subtly and safely with full certification on completion.
Installing automatic irrigation means that you can be sure that your garden is getting just the right amount of water at the right time, whether you are at home, work or on holiday.

There is now a large range of options for hard surfacing in a garden and we are highly experienced in all of them.
Stone, porcelain & brick are the three types most common land by us; resin-bound aggregate is starting to become more popular, particularly as it is permeable to rain.
Often, especially in larger gardens, a combination of different typesof paving can add more texture and interest to space.
All paving constructed by us will be meticulously finished, laid correctly & built on a minimum of a 100mm depth of wellcompacted crushed limestone to ensure that it will last for many years.

Trees & plants are the elements that give life and movement to a space; they can turn a yard into a garden.
Having built up relations with nurseries and growers over the years, we can offer the best quality plants at very competitive rates.
With expert plant knowledge, both for the planning and the planting, we can ensure that they get the best possible start and that they will flourish in their new home.
Plants are the final, vital ingredient in an outdoor space to really turn it into a garden.
