A garden makeover is a fresh start: a new layout, new surfaces and new features, designed around how you want to use the space now. It might be turning a sloping lawn into level terraces, creating an outdoor kitchen and dining area, or making a family garden that also works for entertaining.
We design the new garden, build it with our own team and source paving and stone from our sister yard. Here is what a makeover involves and how we run one.
What a garden makeover can include
Patios and terraces
Porcelain or natural stone, often on more than one level and sized for real furniture.

Questions we are asked
Garden makeover FAQs
How long does a garden makeover take?
It depends on size and scope. A small garden is typically a matter of weeks; larger gardens with walls, terraces and structures take longer. Access and weather both play a part, and every quote comes with a programme.
Can we live at home during the work?
Yes. We keep a safe route to the house, tidy up each day and agree working hours with you. There will be machinery and noise during groundworks.
Can a makeover be phased to spread the cost?
Yes. We design the whole garden first, then build it in stages, typically groundworks and main terrace first, with structures and planting to follow.
Will a garden makeover add value to my house?
A well-designed, usable garden makes a property more attractive to buyers, though the effect on price varies. Most of our customers do it for their own enjoyment first.
