Design & build · Since 2004

Gardens that are
drawn before
they are built.

We design and construct terraces, stonework and planting for architects and homeowners across the county — one team from the first sketch to the last plant.

What we do

Three disciplines,
one drawing.

Most gardens fail where the trades meet. We hold the design, the build and the planting under one roof so the joints are never somebody else's problem.

01

Concept & design

Survey, levels and a drawn scheme you can actually read, with planting plans and a costed schedule before anything is dug.

  • Site survey and level drawings
  • Concept and planting plans
  • Costed schedule of works
02

Stone & structure

Terraces, steps, retaining walls and paths, set on proper foundations by our own masons rather than subcontracted out.

  • Natural stone paving and steps
  • Retaining and feature walls
  • Drainage and groundworks
03

Planting & care

Specimen trees, borders and lawns chosen for the aspect and the soil, then maintained through the first two seasons.

  • Soil testing and preparation
  • Semi-mature tree planting
  • Two seasons of establishment care

How it runs

You see it drawn,
costed and dated
before we start.

01

Visit

We walk the site with you, take levels and talk about how you actually use the space. No charge, about ninety minutes.

02

Drawings

A scheme, a planting plan and a written schedule with real numbers against each element. Two weeks from the visit.

03

Build

One foreman, one crew, a dated programme and a weekly note on where we are against it.

Client

They drew it, priced it and then built exactly that. No variations, no surprises at the end.

We give every client the foreman's mobile number on day one. In twenty years that has never once been a mistake — it is the fastest way to stop a small question becoming a change order.
