Why Should I hire a Garden Designer?Having a design for your garden is the best decision you can make. It will save you money on costly mistakes or under ordering on products that have 6 week manufacturing times or extra delivery charges. We can help you visualise your garden in 3D for you to decide if you like it before it is built. If you fail to plan, then the plan will fail. A set of drawings forms part of the contract between the client and the landscaper therefore avoiding misunderstandings and rebuilding costs.
-
How much will it cost to have my garden designed and built?Clearly this depends upon the size of the garden and the complexity of the design. It is always good to be honest at the beginning of a project about your budget. At the initial meeting, we can assess your hopes and dreams to see if your budget will be able to provide this for you. The design process is where we create and make decisions based on style and affordability. We can even provide the drawings in a series of bite size projects for you to achieve your dream garden in stages according to your budget if necessary.

What's the difference between a Garden Designer and a Landscaper?A Garden Designer has the ability to create a stylish, balanced space. A Garden Designer has the horticultural knowledge that is required to create seasonal interest to match your unique taste. A Landscaper is the person who builds the design we have created. He should be a man who has attention to detail and communicates well with you.
-
Is my Garden too Small?Definitely not... smaller spaces are often the most amazing to create in my opinion.
-
What are my options if I can't afford to do my whole garden in one go?We design the space as a whole. We section the design into manageable pieces to suit your budget. Then you are free to instigate each stage when it suits you.
