Garden Design
Our garden design service creates bespoke outdoor spaces tailored to individual needs. Using advanced mapping software, we develop detailed plans for both small courtyards and large estates. Clients receive full-colour concept designs with planting schemes and layout plans, including one revision. Our Writtle University-trained designers combine technical expertise with creative vision to maximise functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Landscaping
We deliver comprehensive landscaping solutions from patios and pathways to complete garden transformations. Our award-winning team handles all elements including paving, decking, water features, and structural planting. With access to specialist equipment and materials, we implement designs with precision. Our landscaping services integrate seamlessly with garden design projects to create cohesive outdoor environments.
Fencing
Our fencing services include supply and installation of various wooden fencing types. We specialise in natural willow and hazel options alongside traditional designs. Each project begins with a site assessment to determine the most suitable materials and construction methods. We ensure all fencing solutions provide both functional security and aesthetic enhancement to properties.
Hedge Planting
We supply and plant a wide range of hedging solutions including instant hedging and pleached trees. Our service covers selection, delivery, and professional installation. With access to 300 growers, we offer diverse options from evergreen to deciduous varieties. We provide expert advice on species selection based on growth rate, maintenance requirements, and environmental conditions.
Gardening Maintenance
Our maintenance services keep gardens in optimal condition year-round. We offer regular visits and one-off sessions covering lawn care, pruning, hedge cutting, and seasonal tidy-ups. Our RHS-qualified gardeners provide expert care for both large estates and smaller plots. We also offer optional design and landscaping work for contracted clients.

Unimpressed. Placed an order and without giving any reason or apology it was cancelled. If apology & explanation was attached, perhaps this wouldnt warrant a negative review. Will not bother to try again in the future.
