Services
Every one starts with a visit and a plan, is priced in one figure, and is built to drain, because this is the Vale and it rains. Hard landscaping carries a five-year guarantee.
01
A measured survey, a scaled concept plan and a planting list, drawn by hand and then to scale, for gardens we build and gardens you would rather build yourself.
Concept design from £450 for a typical back garden, including the survey, two site visits and a scaled plan.
02
Patios, paths and steps laid on a proper base with a fall and a drain, in porcelain, Indian sandstone, Welsh limestone or clay setts, pointed to last.
Patios from £3,200 for 20 square metres in porcelain or sandstone, including excavation, a compacted sub-base, drainage, slabs, pointing and waste removal.
03
New lawns from turf or seed on properly prepared ground, worn lawns renovated rather than replaced, and artificial grass where a real lawn genuinely will not grow.
New turf lawns from £900 for 50 square metres including stripping, cultivating, levelling, topsoil and turf.
04
New borders and the renewal of old ones, planted to a plan with plants chosen for Vale clay and coastal wind, plus hedges, specimen trees and wildlife-friendly schemes.
Borders from £650 for a 5-metre border including soil preparation, plants, planting, mulch and a plan.
05
Fences that stay up in a Vale gale, in closeboard, slatted cedar or composite, plus decks, pergolas, raised beds and the timber bones of a garden.
Closeboard fencing from £95 per metre, slatted cedar from £160 per metre, including concreted posts and removal of the old fence.
06
Regular visits from gardeners who know plants, not just mowers: pruning at the right time, borders kept, lawns fed and edged, hedges cut, and a seasonal tidy for gardens we did not build.
Half-day visits from £120, full days from £220, fortnightly or monthly.
Not sure where to start?
A garden that "needs something doing" usually needs two or three of these, in an order that matters: levels and drainage first, hard landscaping second, planting last. The design visit works that out and puts a figure on each part, so you can do it all at once or over three summers.
Cerys comes to the garden, measures it and listens, for free. A sketch follows, then a plan, then one price. No pressure at any stage; some people build it three summers later.
