Landscaping & patios

Gardens built on solid groundwork

Because we are groundwork contractors, we also carry out the excavation, levelling, retaining walls and drainage that many landscapers pass to someone else.

One team handles your garden from the first dig to the finished turf. We agree the layout and materials with you on site, and we pay close attention to the levels and the finish, so the garden looks right and stays that way.

  • Patios, steps and paths
  • Retaining walls with drainage behind them
  • Levels planned before we dig
  • One team from start to finish

Common questions

Landscaping & patios: your questions.

Do you design gardens as well?

We will agree a practical layout with you on site, covering levels, materials and where the steps and walls should go. For a full planting design, we can work to a garden designer’s drawings.

Can you do the groundwork as well as the landscaping?

Yes, and we prefer to. With one team digging, levelling, draining and then building the garden, the work is joined up from start to finish.

When is the best time of year for landscaping?

Paving and walls can be built all year round. Turf and planting do best in spring and autumn, so we plan those stages accordingly.
