  • No communication gaps between designer and builder
  • Faster project delivery with better cost control
  • Ongoing relationship for maintenance and future phases

Professional Garden Design Services Surrey

Complete Garden Design and Build

Our garden design Surrey services encompass everything from initial consultation through to project completion. Whether you’re planning a complete garden transformation in Epsom or seeking creative solutions for a specific area in Woking, our team of garden designers Surrey delivers bespoke solutions tailored to your lifestyle and location.

Design Process

Our garden design service ensures every element of your vision is captured and brought to life. We provide a thorough approach encompassing everything from initial concepts through to detailed construction documentation.

Phase 1 - Initial Design Concepts

Learn more

This phase begins when one of our Sussex-based designers visits your property to develop a detailed brief. We encourage you to think deeply about how you want to use your outdoor space before this meeting—whether you’re dreaming of a contemporary entertaining space in Hove, a wildlife-friendly garden in Lewes, or a formal landscape in Horsham.

Using drone photography captured during our initial visit, we’ll create a minimum of two concept sketches for your garden, accompanied by inspiring vision boards. These initial concepts will be shared with you within a week of our design meeting, giving you a first glimpse of your garden’s potential.

Phase 1 includes a second on-site meeting where your designer will review the concepts with you in person, ensuring we’ve captured your vision for your Sussex garden. This collaborative process helps establish a clear direction before moving forward. Following this meeting, we’ll provide a fixed price and timescale for the subsequent design phases.

Phase 2 - Detailed Design Development

Learn more

Once you’ve selected your preferred concept, we’ll develop a more detailed first draft design. This phase explores specific material choices—perhaps Sussex sandstone for a natural look, or contemporary materials for a modern coastal garden—and begins to outline planting schemes suited to your specific microclimate.

During this phase, we also dimension and detail specific elements or features, whether that’s a terraced garden solution for a sloping Eastbourne property or a wildlife pond for a rural West Sussex home. These designs will be shared digitally for your review, and if needed, we can arrange an in-person discussion to refine any details.

Phase 3 - Construction Documentation

Learn more

The final design phase delivers comprehensive construction drawings and specifications required for building your garden. This includes detailed planting schemes, material specifications, and technical details for landscape construction that account for Sussex conditions—from clay soils to coastal exposure.

This phase culminates in a handover meeting where your designer will introduce you to one of our construction management team who will become your main point of contact as the project transitions from design to build. This ensures continuity and clear communication throughout the process of creating your Sussex garden.

Landscaping without Design

Not every Surrey garden requires comprehensive design services. For smaller projects or specific improvements, our streamlined approach offers efficient solutions. Whether you need new patios in Reigate, fencing in Guildford, or decking in Dorking, our landscaping Surrey team provides detailed quotations based on clear scope of works.
Using drone photography and site surveys, we create concept sketches that help visualise your space’s potential without requiring full garden design Surrey services.

Wildlife Ponds and Water Features in Surrey

Creating ponds is our passion! For those seeking to enhance biodiversity in their garden, a wildlife pond represents the most valuable investment of both space and resources. Our expertise spans from intimate water gardens to substantial landscape features, with comprehensive experience in constructing diverse wildlife pond designs.

Whether you dream of a subtle, meandering stream or an impressive waterfall, pathways across water via bridges, or perhaps a specially designed kingfisher nesting bank, we can fashion your perfect aquatic garden environment. For more contemporary gardens, we specialise in designing and implementing bespoke water features, including sophisticated architectural rills and self-sufficient water elements that introduce modern sophistication to any garden design.

Pergolas and Open Structures in Surrey

Wildflower Meadows in Surrey

Learn more

The popularity of wildflower meadows has surged in recent years, and we’ve invested significant time in both installing and maintaining these essential ecological habitats. As certified installers of Wildflower Turf Ltd products, we can establish new meadow installations with proven effectiveness.

For existing spaces, we leverage our extensive expertise to develop comprehensive long-term management strategies for meadow restoration. These dynamic, ecologically significant areas introduce colour, movement, and enhanced biodiversity to your garden whilst demanding less intensive upkeep than conventional lawns.

Hedge Laying, Dead Hedging, and Living Willow Structures in Surrey

Learn more

Boundaries play a vital role in any outdoor setting. Utilising plants and organic materials for boundary creation offers significantly greater wildlife benefits compared to conventional fencing. We specialise in crafting living structures to meet any requirement, from traditional laid hedges that form dense, wildlife-friendly boundaries to innovative living willow structures that create natural garden rooms or play areas.

Dead hedging is an innovative approach to creating valuable wildlife habitats by repurposing pruned branches and garden materials into organised habitat piles. This sustainable practice not only provides essential shelter for local fauna but also offers an eco-friendly solution for garden waste management. These thoughtfully constructed natural boundaries serve as excellent alternatives to conventional fencing, significantly enhancing your garden’s ecological value whilst creating seamless connections with the surrounding landscape.

Natural Stonework in Surrey

Learn more

Drystone walls stand as remarkable features that combine aesthetic appeal with crucial ecological benefits, providing essential microhabitats for diverse invertebrates and reptiles. Throughout our years of practice, we’ve integrated natural and drystone walling into numerous design projects, continuously refining our expertise in this specialised traditional craft.

Our meticulously crafted stonework serves multiple purposes within garden landscapes, from establishing robust retaining walls on challenging sloped terrain to creating elevated planting beds or introducing decorative elements that enhance the garden’s visual appeal. Each wall is thoughtfully constructed using time-honoured techniques, ensuring both structural integrity and long-term durability.
