Design & build landscaping — Watford, Hertfordshire
Outdoor spaces,
forged properly.
Porcelain patios, resin and block driveways, bespoke decking and full garden transformations — built on groundworks we'd stake the company name on, within 20 miles of Watford.
The premise
A garden fails at the base, never at the surface — so we build the part you'll never see like it's the part you'll show off.
Sub-bases over-specified. Drainage calculated, not assumed. Materials from named quarries and mills, laid by our own teams — then handed over with a 5-year workmanship guarantee that means something because we're twenty minutes away.

Services — 01 to 05
Five disciplines. One standard.
Every discipline is delivered design-first: measured, drawn and priced as a fixed itemised quote before a spade goes in.

Compliance isn't a footer link here.
It's the method.
01
SuDS-compliant drainage
Front-garden surfaces over 5m² must be permeable or drain to a soakaway to avoid planning permission. Every driveway we design meets the rule from the first sketch — try the checker on the driveways page.
02
Consumer law, done properly
Off-premises contracts carry the statutory 14-day cooling-off period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, and every service is delivered with the reasonable care and skill the Consumer Rights Act 2015 demands. It's written into our paperwork, not implied.
03
CDM 2015 site management
Construction-phase health and safety is formally managed on every project — method statements, risk assessments, a named project lead — with the paperwork to back it, not just goodwill.
Full transformations
From jungle to July evenings.
How a project runs
Service area
Watford, plus twenty honest miles.
St Albans, Hemel Hempstead, Harrow, Bushey, Radlett and every postcode between. If you're inside the circle, you get the same response times as the house next door to the yard.
Word of mouth
The radius is small. The reputation can't hide.
The brief-before-survey process sounded like homework — it took five minutes and meant the first site visit was about decisions, not measuring. Patio's flawless two winters on.
Three quotes: two day-rates and a shrug, one itemised document with drainage drawn properly. Easiest decision we made on the whole house.
They told us our first idea would fight the levels and cost more to maintain — then designed something better for the same money. That's who you want on your garden.
Straight answers
Asked often.
Yes — strictly. Tight radius means our teams are on site by 8am not stuck on the M25, snags get fixed the same week, and quotes stay sharp because travel isn't priced in. Check your postcode with the tool on this page.
About five minutes in the client portal: a few photos of the space, rough length and width, an optional sketch of what goes where, and any inspiration links. It means the site survey is a working session rather than a fact-finding trip.
Quotes are itemised and fixed against a written specification after survey. Guide prices on each service page show where projects typically land. Payments are staged — never full payment up front.
Our own teams, run by a project lead you can phone. Construction-phase health and safety is managed under CDM 2015 on every job, and workmanship carries a 5-year guarantee.
Ready when you are
Five minutes now saves a fortnight of quote-chasing.
Answer three questions, drop in a few photos, and get a survey that arrives already understanding your garden.
