Services
Paving
Our paving services create durable, aesthetically pleasing outdoor spaces using premium materials and expert installation techniques. We specialise in patios, driveways, and pathways that withstand Cambridge's weather conditions while enhancing property value. Each project incorporates deep foundations, quality mortar, and epoxy resin pointing to ensure longevity and minimal maintenance requirements.
Decking
We construct low-maintenance, durable decking solutions using softwood, hardwood, and composite materials tailored to individual garden specifications. Our installations feature weed-suppressing membranes, stabilised support systems, and optional balustrades for safety. We offer annual treatment recommendations to maintain timber appearance and structural integrity over time.
Planting
Our planting services combine horticultural expertise with design principles to create year-round colour schemes and functional green spaces. We select appropriate plant varieties based on light conditions, growth patterns, and maintenance requirements, ensuring balanced spacing and complementary colour combinations that evolve beautifully over time.
Groundworks
We provide comprehensive groundwork solutions including earth moving, drainage systems, and surfacing preparation for both residential and commercial projects. Our expertise extends to kerb installation, equestrian facilities, and tennis court construction, using appropriate materials and techniques to ensure stable, long-lasting foundations for all landscaping elements.
Water Features
We design and install bespoke water features ranging from simple pebble pools to complex cascading systems that enhance garden ambience. Our installations incorporate recirculation pumps, filtration systems, and strategic planting to create visually appealing, functional features that promote relaxation and attract wildlife to outdoor spaces.
