I tried to shoot some more photos this time, so please have a look and let me know what you think.
This garden has been landscaped before around 2002. Originally it used to be just lawn, then after 2002 it has seen the abundance of various features including some nice ornamental posts, wooden sculptures, water features and a decking which after more than 10 years has fallen apart.
I think every garden needs to have some open space which was missing here..
We have recreated it so hopefully all the grand children will be able to enjoy this garden more..
What was there before:
What was the idea ?
That idea has seen a slight change – no line of shingles. Just patio / lawn / and a flower bed.
Patio construction service under way !
Final result
Would you like us to design / construct a patio area ?

I don’t take half measures and always try to get the best possible results.
These garden bamboo screening slates were supplied by the customer. Quality of these left a lot to be desired but I think the end result is quite good. What do you think ?
If you are thinking about having a new lawn then think how you are going to maintain it.
Mowing along the edges, fences, deckings etc is not that simple unless you took some care in designing your space.
Think about lawn edging. These can be your friend every time you go out to mow your lawn. Bricks or stones put down flush with the surface of the lawn make mowing a pleasure. You don’t have to strim the edges or do anything else apart from running the mower with one wheel on the edge.
Here’s some pictures of a returfed area together with a newly created lawn edge along the fence made with block paving bricks.
Few photos of another garden that had lawn edging done.

My garden was in need of a lot of TLC. I contacted Paul who arrived straight away and gave me a quote. He arrived at the weekend in the rain and did a fantastic job of clearing weeds, cutting down dead trees, pruning roses, cutting back ivy and much more. He completed the job, even e-mailed me with ideas of what to plant in the space I now had. I would definitely recommend Paul. Thank you very much.
