Your questions answered
Isn’t
garden design expensive?
Garden design is both a creative and technical process, that takes years
of training and experience to perfect. A good design will save money
by ensuring practical construction and cost implications are taken in
to consideration when creating your dream garden. Putting right a poorly
planned garden can cost a great deal more than getting it right first
time around. We also agree the budget for your garden, before work starts
so there are no nasty surprises at the end
How
long does it all take?
The time required to design a garden does vary, depending on factors
such as complexity of the project, the need for third party input and
your availability to discuss amendments. We aim for
every customer to receive their initial visit from a designer within
two weeks of a request. The typical design will then be completed in
6-10 weeks.
