Garden design and build
Thoughtful garden design, carefully constructed
Our design and build service brings together creative garden design and high-quality landscape construction, delivered as a single, coordinated process.
By managing both stages in-house, we ensure that design intent is carried through accurately, materials are specified correctly, and the finished garden reflects the original vision in both detail and proportion.
From concept to completion
Every project begins with understanding the site, the property, and how the garden will be used over time. We consider layout, levels, planting, materials, and long-term maintenance from the outset, creating designs that are practical as well as visually balanced.
Once the design is agreed, our landscape team delivers the build with close attention to groundworks, drainage, and construction standards. This joined-up approach allows the garden to be built efficiently, with fewer compromises and a smoother experience for clients.
What our design and build projects may include
Our work often includes a combination of structural landscaping and planting, tailored to each garden. Elements may include:
- Garden layouts and spatial planning
- Paving, terraces, and pathways
- Retaining walls and level changes
- Pergolas, screens, and garden structures
- Fencing and boundary treatments
- Lawns, irrigation, and drainage
- Planting schemes and soil preparation
Planting is installed with careful attention to soil conditions and aftercare, supporting healthy establishment and long-term performance.

Planting and materials
Strong planting design is central to successful gardens. We select plants for structure, seasonal interest, and suitability to the site, often combining evergreen framework planting with perennials and ornamental grasses to provide year-round interest.
Materials are chosen for durability and how they sit within the wider landscape, whether that involves natural stone, porcelain paving, timber, or metal detailing. The aim is always to create gardens that feel settled and appropriate to their setting.
Visualising your garden
Clear communication is essential during the design process. Depending on the project, designs may be presented using scaled layout plans, planting plans, and visual references to help clients understand how the space will work and how it will develop over time.
Our portfolio of completed gardens demonstrates how these designs translate into finished landscapes, built with care and attention to detail.
A joined-up approach
Designing and building a garden as a single process allows decisions to be made with full knowledge of how the garden will be constructed and maintained. This helps avoid over-complication and ensures the finished garden performs well in everyday use.
Our aim is always to deliver gardens that feel cohesive, well considered, and built to last.
