We contacted Cube having seen the team working at a neighbouring property and after reviewing the competition online. Despite social distancing requirements, Sean (founder/owner) met us to discuss requirements and survey the current garden, which was predominantly laid to grass with a unusable patio (too small) and a decked area for the hot tub. He understood our style and requirements from the onset and came up with a fantastic design featuring three separate seating areas (to make best use of the sun throughout the day), an outdoor kitchen island and a beautiful planting scheme that looks like

What a great landscape design and build company Cube 1994 are. We have just had our whole garden designed and relandscaped. Absolutely stunning, attention to detail from the initial meeting to the completed garden. We had a new porcelain patio laid and a garden studio , water feature, lighting and outdoor kitchen, we are completely blown away by how fantastic it looks, James in Chelmsford

I cannot begin to tell you how extremely excited we are to have our dream patio, it has completely enhanced all aspects of our garden including our outside eating area. Sean and his team were amazing. His experience and professionalism were second to none. He listened carefully to our ideas and what we had pictured in our minds and made it happen to a standard I never thought possible, adding ideas to make it the best space possible for our family. The attention to detail was out of this world, the whole team were courteous, polite, extremely hardworking and so tidy, we were actually sad to see

We commissioned Sean and his team to develop a blank canvas on our new build property into something much more useful and professional looking. Cube did an amazing job - Andy, Archie and Ross arrived promptly every day and worked extremely hard throughout to achieve the desired result for our garden. Highly recommended to anyone looking to improve their existing outdoor space.
