Our garden design service creates bespoke outdoor spaces tailored to individual requirements. Led by David Stone, our team produces detailed plans including hard landscaping, planting schemes, and irrigation systems. We work closely with clients through initial consultations, site surveys, and multiple design iterations to ensure every garden balances aesthetics with functionality. Our designs consider seasonal interest, maintenance requirements, and integration with existing architecture, delivering spaces that evolve beautifully over time.
Irrigation Systems
We design and install efficient irrigation systems that optimise water usage while maintaining garden health. Our solutions include automated systems with weather sensors, drip irrigation, and smart controllers that adjust watering schedules based on rainfall. We also provide maintenance and repair services for existing systems, ensuring optimal performance throughout the year. Our approach prioritises sustainability while delivering precise water delivery to different garden zones.

Available for issues ranging from drainage problems to planting schemes, our specialists visit properties to evaluate conditions and provide written reports with recommendations. The service includes follow-up discussions to explain proposed solutions and implementation strategies, ensuring clients receive actionable advice based on our extensive horticultural expertise.
