Frequently Asked Questions

Transforming your garden is an investment. By involving us in the process we will help make sure you get the most value out of your new garden and that it seamlessly combines function with beauty. We will take time to understand what you want to achieve, make recommendations and oversee the design process. 

A garden designer understands all elements of the transformation (from planting to hard landscaping) and focuses on the aesthetic and function of the whole garden rather than one particular element. 

We cover the whole of East Yorkshire and North Yorkshire with our garden design services.

Whilst Yorkshire is our main area of work, we are happy to work across the UK and have previous projects in Nottinghamshire and Herefordshire, as an example.

We offer flexible services with sensible pricing, all our design quotes are fixed fee so you can accurately budget for design costs when choosing to work with us.

The average time for us to complete a full design is around 3 months but it really depends on the scale, complexity and whether other surveys or permissions are required. 

We pride ourselves on clear communication throughout the whole process and keeping you informed about each step.

Build times depend on the workload and schedules of contractors, the landscapers we work with tend to be 3-6 months ahead.

All gardens require some form of maintenance, whether it's seasonal changes with your planting or keeping patios and hard landscaping looking their best.

By involving us in the process we will take time to understand what you want to achieve and make sure it's in line with how much maintenance you're comfortable with. 

Yes. We love enhancing existing borders and creating new ones.

Have a look at our planting plan or soft landscaping service for more information.

We don't offer hard landscaping in-house but as part of our design process we will guide you from our initial consultation to your garden being built. 

Once your garden is designed we will put together a pack for your contractors to quote from and will help you at this stage. 

We can introduce you to contractors that we've worked with previously and we have clients that would be happy to share references and show previous work.

Yes, please have a look at our online garden design advice page.

There are no set rules and the design process can take place through all seasons.

Whilst we will always do our best to meet your timeline, it depends on the scale of your project and the workload of contractors. 

Like all projects, the earlier you have your team in place, the better.

If you have just moved in to a new property, taking time to understand where the sun hits, any areas to enhance or issues to overcome can really help with your garden transformation.
