Survey & Design

We will survey the site, create a site plan, provide two concept designs for you to choose from, a scaled design, a setting out plan with measurements, and a concept planting plan. You will also have access to the Shoot garden design website during this process.
The cost for this service is £1250 - £2250 depending on the size and complexity of the design.
Survey, Design & Planting
Starting with a Consultation and ending with your beautiful new garden.
This package includes all items in the Survey & Design package, along with a Scheme of Work Proposal, detailed planting plans, plant sourcing and purchasing from wholesalers, setting out of the design on-site ready for landscapers, a site visit during landscaping, soil improvement, planting and mulching.
Charges start at £4000 for a small garden.
Working with landscapers
Great Garden Designs will ultimately control the overall design, material choices and planting plans.
We set out the design on the ground ready for your landscapers to cut out and build hard landscaping features such as paths, patios, walls & decks. We make at least one site visit during landscaping.
In the meantime, we are sourcing and buying the plants and soil improvers needed to plant the garden.
Once the hard landscaping is done, we will be back to improve the soil, with weeding and rotavating where necessary, and plant up according to detailed planting plans.
We can obtain quotes for landscaping work for you. Please be aware, it can take up to 4 months to get hard landscaping started, but we can often start work on the planting a lot earlier depending on the design.
