After many years working as professional garden landscapers we know exactly what concerns our customers when they are considering embarking on a landscaping project, and the queries they are likely to have.
To help you know exactly what’s involved, and what to expect before, during and after a landscaping project is in progress, we’ve put together a list of the questions we are most commonly asked and our honest answers.
If there’s anything we’ve left out, don’t hesitate to get in touch and ask us directly – we’re always happy to help.
Yes, we offer free site visits where required, along with clear, no-obligation written quotes. For smaller or straightforward jobs, we may be able to provide an estimate without a visit.

Access may be limited depending on the scope of the project, but we’ll always keep you informed and aim to minimise inconvenience.
Most landscaping, patios, and garden work does not require planning permission. However, certain projects – such as installing a new driveway with a drop kerb – may require approval. We can advise you if this applies.

A resin bound driveway is a durable, smooth surface made from natural aggregates mixed with a clear resin. It’s permeable, attractive, and compliant with drainage regulations.

With proper installation and care, resin driveways can last 20–25 years or more.

Spring is ideal, especially after the last frost, but turf can be laid successfully at other times with proper care.
Turf typically establishes within around 2 weeks with correct watering and care.
We recommend avoiding foot traffic for at least 2 weeks to allow the roots to establish.
We either improve existing soil by rotavating or install new topsoil if needed, ensuring a level, nutrient-rich base.
Regular watering is essential for the first couple of weeks, followed by ongoing mowing and maintenance.
If our aftercare guidance has been followed, we will replace any turf that fails to establish properly.
