Beautiful pale grey external porcelain tiles are used for this large terrace in Whetstone.

As part of the garden design service in North London, all the details for your new garden are defined clearly in high quality drawings for the landscaper to bring the design to reality.
This involves measuring the entire site and locating all existing features, trees and plants which are to be retained or removed.
A Survey Plan scale drawing is then prepared which shows the aspect, boundaries, levels, soil conditions and other important information for the garden design service.
Siobn now has a good feel of what you would like and the site itself.

We had a bad experience with a previous garden contractor, so chose carefully when it came time to having our garden redesigned.
The level of detail in Sioban's work, from the extensive garden survey, the technical drawings, setting out plan, paving layout, mood boards and planting plans was exceptional.
Sioban took on board our lifestyle, budget and maintenance requirements and came up with a bespoke garden design tailored to our needs.
Incredibly professional, from her clear, prompt communication to her level of detail in all aspects of the work.

This restful wildlife water garden in Finchley has four watery elements.
The square upper pool discharges over a stainless-steel chute and the cascade falls gently into the rill.
This flows to a shallow diamond-shaped pool.
In the corner of the garden is a pond set in an area dedicated to wildlife.
Water circulates through the shallow rill and lower pool.
The base of the rill and lower pool is covered with flat green pebbles.
Frogs enjoy paddling and basking in the lower pool and birds can wash and take a drink.

Mature ash, sycamore, oak and holly make a natural setting for this woodland garden.
The dappled shade suits many shrubs, bulbs and herbaceous plants.
Whether in the heat of summer or darkest winter, the woodland garden provides a lovely family retreat in Whetstone, North London.
We used wildflower meadow turf to make the woodland glade.
The selection of meadow plants suits dappled shade and includes Meadow Cranesbill, Ragged Robin, Primrose and Ox-eye daisy.
Flower interest over a long period includes early violets, the soft yellow of Lady's Bedstraw and and the vibrant pink of red campion.
