Services
Garden Design
Our garden design service creates tailored outdoor spaces combining aesthetics and functionality. Working with local designers, we develop detailed plans using advanced surveying tools to ensure precision. From concept to implementation, we focus on sustainable materials and client preferences, delivering gardens that complement existing architecture while addressing unique site challenges like poor drainage or uneven terrain.
Landscaping
Specialising in transforming challenging landscapes, our landscaping service includes patios, retaining walls, and water features. We use natural stone, timber, and corten steel to create durable structures that withstand Cumbria's weather. Our team manages complex projects from groundworks to final finishes, ensuring minimal disruption while achieving long-lasting, visually appealing results.
Planting
We develop custom planting schemes using native and ornamental species to create year-round interest. Our approach considers soil conditions, wildlife attraction, and maintenance requirements. Whether enhancing existing gardens or starting from scratch, we source high-quality plants directly from growers to ensure optimal growth and environmental compatibility in Cumbrian climates.
Green Roofs
Our green roof installations provide insulation, rainwater management, and biodiversity benefits. Using drought-resistant sedums and wildflowers, we create low-maintenance living roofs that blend with Lake District landscapes. Each project includes structural assessments and waterproofing to ensure durability while supporting sustainability goals and planning requirements.
Difficult Site Solutions
We specialise in transforming problematic sites including steep slopes, wet soil, and limited-access gardens. Through innovative design and construction techniques, we convert challenging spaces into functional outdoor areas. Our solutions incorporate drainage systems, retaining structures, and erosion control measures tailored to Cumbria's diverse topography and weather conditions.
