Landscaping

We were asked to lay artificial lawn at the front of this property, to replace that grass that was very patchy and simply not thriving. We stripped and removed the turf and topsoil before laying a weed membrane and then artificial turf on [...]

We were asked to overhaul this garden with new steps and planting to the side and a raised bed with retaining sleeper wall at the back, to create a relaxing seating area for the summer months. On our first visit we added a [...]

This client wanted their low-maintenance garden, which was covered with rocks and stones, redesigned as a space that was more suitable for a young family. This included the removal of lots of the plants and rocks and the laying of a new lawn. We [...]

Working with some of the features already present in this garden, we painted both the fence and the shed in a softer shade then added slate-style tiles to the shed roof. The client wanted to grow vegetables so we built sleeper-sided veg beds at [...]

This large family garden featured a large pergola-type structure in the centre, behind which the owner had a makeshift chicken coop. We removed the old pergola, opening up the garden, and re-homed the chickens in a purpose-built, fox-proof coop to one side. We then [...]

The frontage of this London townhouse needed a smart new look, so we replaced the existing large bamboo plants with these sleek Taxus in a stylish container. These also complement the other contemporary planting at the property, such as the elegant box balls. Jamie is a truly wonderful, [...]

This steep terraced garden had served the previous owners well but our client wanted to open it right up to maximise the space for her young family. We removed a lot of material to achieve this from a greenhouse to raise beds and [...]

This small courtyard garden proves that no area is too small to make a beautiful and relaxing garden! We tidied up the pathway and lined it with box hedging and box balls either side before planting up the beds behind to create a [...]

This steep garden presented quite a challenge. It originally ended with a large flower bed followed by a sizeable unused space between the bed and the fence. Our brief was to extend the lawn as much as possible and create an attractive bed [...]

The client here wanted a new area of lawn laid, an area of deck with wood-chipping at the back of the garden removed and to let some light back into this good-sized garden. We began by cutting back the trees at the end [...]

Our brief here was turn this garden with a serious slope in to a safe and easy-to-care-for space for the family and their small children. Despite particularly inclement weather, we removed ivy-covered fencing that reached 12ft high and relocated tonnes of soil, before [...]

Our main brief here was to return this tired garden to its former glory with a new lawn and planting to bring it back to life. The lawn was in such a bad condition that the best option was to lay new turf. [...]

In 2013 we turned a bare patch of this garden into a picturesque formal garden with a dramatic fountain at the centre, surrounded by beds edged with box hedging and filled with tall purple verbenas. We now also look after the regular maintenance [...]

The aim with this garden was to revitalise a tired space into a useable garden for a busy family. The original garden was on a slope which was leveled into two defined areas. The rear area has a patio in the sun & [...]

The old sunken pond in the formal area of the garden had seen better days. By raising and enlarging the pond we not only made it into a striking feature on which you can sit whilst feeding the fish, but also gave more [...]

The old line of conifers behind the path in the garden had died and become covered with ivy. We therefore removed them and erected a new wooden pergola which spanned the walkway. This allowed us to open up the garden and yet retain [...]

Situated on the banks of the Grand Union Canal, this garden had formerly been planted in an Oriental style but had become overgrown. Our client decided they wanted to change the garden to reflect the interior of the house so we designed a [...]

The main feature of this garden was the slope which took up so much room.

Having moved to a new house in London our client wanted the whole outdoor space freshened up. We achieved this by introducing many new plants to pots and beds in the garden, including Buxus and Hydrangea amongst others. We also set large planters [...]

A mixture of hard landscaping techniques were required here to repair, reinstate and install new features. Brick edging was replaced around the gravel drive, granite setts were layed where the drive met the road and an oak archway was erected with a basket [...]

The client wanted to replace a small, impractical patio with a large decked area with balustrade. We were able to reuse the slabs from the original patio and combined with the addition of a number of new slabs we created two hard-standing areas [...]

Having recently moved into the property the clients not only wanted to open up the front of the house to allow more light in but also required space to park up to three cars. This was achieved with a gravel drive bordered with [...]
