the design process

Initial Consultation

Once we have received your enquiry, we will arrange a telephone consultation with you in order to establish the fundamentals of your project, answer any questions that you may have, and ensure that we're able to assist you.  We will then arrange to meet with you on-site in order to view the existing garden and take a design brief from you. 

​

Our fees for an initial consultation start at £120.00 (you will be provided with a quote if the location of your project warrants additional travel).  The fee covers not only our time during the meeting itself and travel to and from site, but also the time spent following the meeting writing up the design brief and providing you with a fees proposal for the design work discussed.

Concept Development

Once we have received your first payment (this will be detailed in your fees proposal) we will arrange to have a survey conducted of your garden.  Depending on the size and complexity of the site, this may be completed by ourselves, or we will instruct a 3rd party surveyor to undertake the work.  We will then start work on producing a concept design for your new garden.  This will include a plan view and may be supported by computer generated 3D modelling, mood boards and other perspectives.  We will then arrange to meet with you to present the concept and gain your feedback which we will then take away to form the basis of any revisions that may be required.

Drawings

Once approved, the design will be developed into a set of drawings detailing working drawings and specifications that will be used by your landscaping contractor to construct the garden.

Planting Plan

A planting plan showing location and numbers of all plants to be included in the new garden will be produced.  Should you require a maintenance schedule for the selected plants, this can be produced at an additional cost.

Garden Construction

We can recommend local landscape contractors to approach for quotes and once you have selected your chosen contractor, can monitor your garden's construction, planting and styling.
