The Consultation - Starting with an initial £100, 1 hour long meeting, we will focus entirely on you and your garden. Discussing your garden dreams, visions, wants and needs we will take a look at all the different areas of your garden and assess. I will sketch out some preliminary designs which we can discuss and we will go through budgets, time-frames, practicality and potential issues that may arise. I will then head back to the office and draw up a design quote that will be tailored to your unique design.
The Design Process - Starting with a survey of your garden, a base line drawing of your space will be created. This is what I will work off of to create your garden design. Any and all elements to be kept will be noted and generally takes a few hours to complete. Back in the office I will hand draw your design. This process takes 2 - 4 weeks to draw up. A meeting will be set up with you and the design will then be presented to you and walked through, giving you the view through the garden. This is the time to add any changes to the design before a final draft is produced. After your sign off, a final design will be produced for you which will be used in the build of your new garden.
How much does a garden design build cost? This question gets asked alot, it very much depends on the site and it's best to think along the lines of how much you will spend on a kitchen. Price will vary depending on details, size, spec of materials etc. However, having a beautiful garden is an investment and I am happy to work to any budget that you have.
Design services start from £1000.
Planting Designs
With so many varieties of plants on offer, it can be challenging to find plants that suit your garden that give you the look that you want. A planting design takes into account the garden as a whole and is specific to the soil, site aspect (sun/shade), climate, rain fall and how much maintenance you actually want to do.
Starting with an intial phone conversation to get to know you and your vision for your garden, I will get you booked in for a full consultation meeting where we will have an in-depth look at your garden and what you hope to achieve with it. We will discuss your budget, time scale and eventual maintenance along with the garden composition.
