Garden Design services in Stamford

Based in the beautiful Georgian town of Stamford, I offer stunning garden designs for clients across Stamford and the surrounding area. My attention to detail, years of experience and creative flare will ensure I produce a garden design that encapsulates all the things you’re looking for, creating an outdoor space that you can be proud of and enjoy for many years to come.

Garden Design Core Services

I understand that every clients requirements are different and you might not want a full garden design, choosing instead to focus on one particular area of the garden to improve upon. This is why I offer several core services, including planting design, lighting design, wildlife gardens and ponds. In this respect I can tailor my services to suit your individual requirements.

For instance, you might want to focus on introducing garden lighting to create an ambience after dark or to make your garden space more usable by lighting up path ways and sitting areas. There is a wide range of garden lighting options available and I can help you select the right lighting for your requirements and ensure this is positioned for maximum effect.

You might also just want to introduce more planted areas into your garden space to help introduce more wildlife. Or you might simply want more privacy from neighbouring properties, shading from the sun in sitting areas, or a bright and colourful planted area to admire. I can work with you to provide help and guidance in selecting the right plants, shrubs and trees for your requirements and garden environment.

The Garden Design Process

I work with clients from the offset, discussing your requirements, offering advice and guidance to ensure you get the very best out of your new garden design. I will then summarise what’s been discussed in a design brief, which will be sent to you for review and approval. At this stage I will also outline fees and a breakdown of the full design process.

The next stage will be to have a site survey completed, which will involve me conducting my own site analysis along with a topographic survey also being completed. Next, an outline design will be created showing a top-down view, 3D views of the design, a mood board and various planting and material palettes.

Once the outline design has been agreed a detailed Masterplan will be created to scale. This will be used by landscape professionals who I work with to ensure they have everything they need to cost and build the garden to match the design created. I will work with the landscapers to manage the build process and ensure it matches your full requirements. I will personally select and position many of the trees, shrubs and plants myself based on those that are best suited to your garden environment and your requirements.

A Low Maintenance Garden Space

Low maintenance garden spaces are a growing trend due to people having busy life’s and not wanting the extra burden of constantly maintaining their garden space. There are many options for creating a low maintenance garden that is also visually appealing and practical. I can produce a garden design that uses gravel, block paving and low maintenance & hardy plants to ensure the maintenance required to keep the garden looking nice is minimal. I will carefully select simple, hardy shrubs and evergreen plants that will look good all year round and drop fewer leaves than deciduous plants.
