Initial Site Meeting
This first step is for me to meet you, look at your garden and discuss
with you what you want from your garden. I can make suggestions
and give advice to enable you to decide on the best course of action,
and which of the following services may best suit you.
*This initial visit is free of charge within
a 30 mile radius of Taunton and without obligation on your part.
For gardens further afield, I may make a charge to cover travelling
expenses.
On site Consultancy
Here I can suggest ideas, provide on site sketches, discuss garden
planning, plants and materials. Sometimes a single consultation
is all that is required for you to develop your garden, or steer
it in the right direction.
Concept Plan/Visuals
Prior to embarking on a full design, concept plans can ensure the
general components of the design are agreed before a full design
is produced. Alternatively, a concept plan can provide you with
an idea to develop your own garden.
Full Design
A full design plan is produced to provide you or your selected contractor
with enough detailed information to be able to construct the garden.
The plans will usually include visuals to show how the completed
garden will look, and suggestions for planting and materials. As
part of a full design, I will conduct an accurate site survey unless
your garden is very large or complex, in which case a separate land
survey may be required.
Planting Plans
Basic planting ideas will usually be included on a full design,
but sometimes more detailed planting plans are required. I can provide
this detail, and will select plants which are suited to your soil
type and aspect, which will give your garden year round interest
and structure, and which will compliment each other and the style
of the house and garden.
Construction Drawings
These may be required by you or your contractor to show in detail
how a particular part or feature of the garden is to be constructed.
Project Management
I am happy to help you in choosing or briefing a contractor and
can also oversee projects to ensure that work proceeds in accordance
with the design. Alternatively, I can carry out periodic checking
of the quality of plants, materials or workmanship.
