Do you undertake the construction yourself?
No, my role is to produce a 3D garden design which includes approximate measurements, preferred material specification and a general layout of the garden allowing you to source estimates from hard landscaping firms, builders or gardeners. I work closely with local landscaping firms and can help and liaise with them. For an additional fee I can project manage the entire build.
Do you supply the plants?
I will source the plants required for the design from reputable nurseries and will endeavour to use local, independent suppliers wherever possible.
What about on-going garden maintenance?
The plants chosen for your design will match your maintenance requirements and skill levels. A maintenance plan can be provided if required. This will be priced separately and will include guidance on tasks to carry out through the year to maximise the success of your new garden. I will be happy to visit your garden to advise and help if required.
