FAQ

do I really need a design?

Yes. There are many reasons why a professionally prepared landscape design is worth its weight in gold.

  • A design will save you time, money, and effort by avoiding common mistakes.

  • A well-designed garden will add enjoyment and real dollar value to your home.

  • Without a plan in place, it's easy to lose sight of what you are working towards and harder to make wise choices in the future.

  • All successful gardens have a landscape design.

How much will it cost?

The cost of a landscape design depends on your requirements, the complexity of the solution, and the size of your property. That’s why no two quotes are the same.

You will be provided with a quote after our initial consultation. Please note that a consultation fee applies.

My fees are fair and reflect my expert skills and knowledge. Be assured you will get good value for money.

What are the design steps for a new Garden?

  1. Initial Garden consultation at your home where we get to know you. We begin to clarify your vision and gain an understanding of the site problems and the full scope of work. Following the consultation, a quote to complete the design is provided.

  2. Concept designs and creative solutions are explored with you during this stage. I will also reattend your site to take measurements, and photographs, and analyse the site conditions. You will be presented with scaled plans with alternative garden layouts, including materials choices and a plant palette to review.

  3. A Final Master Plan for your garden is then created and presented to you.

How long will it take?

The collaborative design process can take anywhere from 4 weeks to 4 months.
