Planning the work
Garden structures built for your garden
Good landscaping starts below the finished surface. Preparation, levels, edges and drainage are considered alongside the visible materials.
Garden structures should have a clear purpose and sit comfortably within the wider layout. We consider position, scale, access, levels, foundations and drainage, as well as how a pergola, wall, raised bed or set of steps will connect with surrounding paving and planting.
We can quote against an existing brief or discuss suitable construction and material options during a free site visit. Every written quotation is based on the agreed scope for your property.

How we approach the build
The exact method depends on the site and agreed materials, but every project is planned from the groundwork upwards.
- 01
Agree position and scale
We set out the feature in relation to boundaries, routes, seating areas and the changing levels of the garden.
- 02
Prepare firm foundations
Suitable footings, supports or base construction are formed for the material and type of structure being built.
- 03
Build and integrate
The structure is completed with attention to connections, edges and the adjoining surfaces that make it part of the garden.
After the installation
Keeping the finished work at its best
Care varies by material. Timber may need periodic treatment, while masonry and raised beds should be kept clear of blocked drainage and checked for movement or damage over time.
