To really set your garden apart have you thought about adding a stand out feature? Not only for decorative purposes, garden features can also increase the usability of your outdoor space! For example; pergolas offer shade and privacy, and you can also attach colourful and beautiful smelling climbers to the posts! Shade sails can be installed over your hot tubs or patio areas to protect your space from the elements. Also, brick BBQs and fire pits are perfect if you spend a lot of time entertaining in the garden and like to have family or friends over! The choices are endless…
PAVING
There are so many options to choose from when selecting the paving for your patio and pathways. From the natural pavers like Indian Stone to the modern Porcelain and traditional block paving, our team will help you choose the most suitable for your garden requirements. We use a minimum of 50mm of hardcore and a bed of wet mix to ensure the area is sturdy, and finish off by pointing up the areas with resin which comes in a variety of colours to match your chosen paver.
COMPOSITE DECKING
Composite decking is an alternative to the traditional wooden decking that comes in a fantastic range of colours. Non-slip and low maintenance, the composite decking does not rot, warp or splinter meaning it will last for years to come. We always insert a weed and root resistant membrane underneath our decked areas to prevent unwanted weeds from growing through. Ask to see our samples when arranging your site visit!
FENCING
There is a huge range of fence panels and styles to choose from including feather edge, waney lap, trellis and decorative, with most options serving the same functions; boundary definition, noise reduction and security. With experience installing all types of fencing we will help you choose the best option for your requirements.
SLEEPERS & RETAINING WALLS
Railway sleepers are hugely versatile and are an alternative option to bricks when building retaining walls, garden steps, borders or raised features. We have even created bespoke seating areas from sleepers that blended in seamlessly with the raised beds.
DRIVEWAYS
As with patios and paved areas, you can use multiple types of paving for your driveways including traditional block paving and contemporary Indian Stone. The area is excavated to 250mm and a minimum of 150mm of hardcore is used to ensure the area is strong enough to support vehicles. Alternatively, for a very durable and low maintenance option, you can choose tarmac.
TURF / ARTIFICAL TURF
Beautiful to look at and soft to touch, artificial turf if a great alternative to natural turf! It is low maintenance, pet friendly and evergreen no matter the season and with multiple options to choose from it can suit any budget. Ask to see our samples during your site visit! If natural turf is your preference, we only supply and fit the highest quality blend, that is suitable for the diverse UK climate. Multi-purpose and hard wearing, your lawn will look healthy, fresh and green once laid.
POND WORK
Whether you want a new pond, repair or refurbish an existing pond or add a water feature – we’ve got you covered. Ponds and water features are a beautiful addition to a garden and add that extra wow factor!
DRAINAGE
One of the most common problems our clients enquire about is getting rid of excess water on their paved and turfed areas. One way of resolving this is by inserting French drains and connecting these to perforated pipes that will run underground to the main drains to prevent pooling of water. Other resolutions are aco drains and soakaways. During your free site survey, point out the areas that are affected and we will advise you on the best drainage solution.
