CONSULTATION

The first step is a meeting to visit your garden and discuss your requirements.  This meeting usually lasts about an hour.

Before the meeting I like you to think about what you want from your garden. You may also want to collect photos and articles from magazines etc. This all helps me to understand your brief.
Following the
visit I will send you a copy of the brief and an fixed fee quote for the design work.

SITE SURVEY AND ANALYSIS

A second visit is necessary to survey the garden before any design work can start. During this visit the garden and house will be accurately measured. A note will also be made of soil quality and PH, aspect and any unusual conditions. I will also take photographs of the site.
Following the site survey, I draw up the survey and site analysis as the basis for the master plan.

DETAILED DESIGN

For some clients this is the end of the process. Others will continue to employ me to get quotes from landscaping companies and manage the building of the garden. For smaller gardens this stage also includes planting plans but for larger projects planting plans are charged seperately.

PLANTING PLANS

You may already know the look you want to achieve, alternatively, you may want to draw on my knowledge and use my source books for guidance and inspiration. 

I will provide a planting plan which includes the position, names and numbers of plants. You will also be provided with plant list giving names, quantities and sizes of plants to make ordering easier if you decide to source the plants yourself.

PLANT SOURCING AND PLANTING SERVICES

This is usually the final stage to completing your dream garden. Once the hard landscaping has been completed and the planting plan agreed, the plants can be supplied and planted by myself or by the lanscaping company building the garden. It is important to ensure that the right plants are bought in good condition and that they are positioned and planted correctly. 

I work with a wide range of top nurseries in Britain and abroad and can supply plants at competitive prices. A quotation to supply and install plant material will be produced and agreed before work goes ahead.
