Deciding on a Budget for your Garden Project

A well-designed, well maintained garden is an investment as it brings lasting enjoyment, can extend your living space and can add value to your property. Investing in your garden will give you access to a wide range of high quality landscape materials that provide an extension to your living space and add instant interest from mature plants.

The size of your garden, the balance of hard landscaping and planting you require, choice of materials and site conditions (slopes, poor drainage, access) all affect the final price.

The money you invest in your garden will also continue to add value, as long as the garden is well
maintained, like fine wine, it matures and continues to improve.

When you decide to invest in your garden, you will want to be sure that your money is well spent. Whatever your budget, you will maximise your investment by having the input of a Professional Garden Designer before you start having your garden built.

The Lime Orchard Garden Design Team provides a range of services including initial consultation, garden survey, design drawings, 3-D presentation drawings, construction drawings, setting out plans, and planting plans. Each design produced is bespoke for your garden and requirements.

We suggest you start with our Garden Stylist visit, a consultation service with a professional designer, for which we charge £150.00 . If you have a smaller project or are looking for inspiration for a corner, discussing your individual requirements with a designer may be enough to get you started. However, at this stage we will also provide a quote to have full plans drawn.

"We are really pleased with everything and can't wait to see them planted...so once
again....thank you very much indeed, for all you have done.....it is really much appreciated!"

"I received the drawing today and it's very much to my liking, I'm really thrilled with it, to say the least!"

Your Dream Garden Built

		This design is required to deal with three, separate spaces.  The main garden, a long, thin area enclosed by a brick wall, to the side of the property. A small, rear garden and an area of planting adjacent to the drive. The main garden is to be a family space and should optimise the opportunities to relax, socialise and generally enjoy the garden. A timber pergola is to give shade to the patio. This feature along with a series of pleached trees will also help solve the problem of being overlooked. Planting is to soften the extensive brick wall and also be robust enough to cope with a young family. A contemporary planting palette including soft, textural grasses and tall bamboos add height (helping soften the wall) and movement to the garden. These also contrast well with the more formal, bold forms of clipped Box balls along the main path. The bin area benefits from being concealed, by contemporary timber screen The rear garden offers a quiet, relaxing space for morning coffee. A focal point water feature, with up lighting will give a focal point to the space as well as from inside the property.
