Report
I've got nothing but good things to say about working with Dave and Greenvision Garden Design. I had an initial call with Dave and then h came other to see our garden and get a more detailed briefing. He then created 2 designs, we had a further meeting to review and then he created a final design which was a hybrid of his first 2 designs. Right from our first call I felt that Dave totally got what we were trying to achieve with our space. We have a very small back garden and I want to maximise it as a play space for our young daughter but also create a design that was future proofed for a potential
