Prices
One figure. Materials, labour, waste and VAT in it.
Guide prices for typical gardens with normal access. The exact figure comes from the design visit and the plan, and once quoted it does not move unless you change the plan.

Everything else
The full list.

Nothing added at the end
Materials, plants, labour, skips and VAT are in the figure. If you change the plan we price the change before we make it.
Guaranteed in writing
Five years on patios, walls, fences and decks. Plants for their first year when we maintain them.
Plants priced honestly
Planting is the part most quotes skimp on. Ours lists every plant, its size and its price, so you can see where the money goes.
Paid in stages
Nothing up front. A third at groundworks, a third after the hard landscaping, the balance after planting and a walk-round.
