A joined-up result from boundary to door
Practical circulation
We plan routes around furniture, doors and level changes before building starts.
Controlled drainage
We account for falls and surface water rather than leaving puddles to decide.
One visual scheme
We coordinate paving, lawns and timber details instead of treating them alone.
Bring the whole garden into one plan
A full garden makeover is useful when the problem isn't one cracked slab or a tired patch of lawn, but the way everything fits together. We can coordinate patios, paths, lawns, raised features, timber structures and level changes around dining, relaxing or entertaining. In Southsea gardens, that often means making better use of limited routes and awkward corners while leaving enough room to move comfortably. We consider privacy, access, drainage and future upkeep alongside appearance, so the finished layout works when chairs are pulled out, bins need moving or rain reaches the paving.
Understand the likely budget and programme
Full transformations typically start at about £15,000. A middle-sized garden commonly falls around £15,000 to £20,000-plus, depending on excavation, access, materials and the number of built features. Substantial projects may take four to six weeks. We establish the sequence before construction so groundwork, paving, carpentry and finishing details follow a sensible order. That coordinated approach avoids creating one attractive area that later has to be disturbed to reach another.
Frequently asked questions
What does a full garden transformation include?
The exact scope depends on your plot, but it can combine clearance, ground preparation, patios, paths, lawns, planters, fencing, decking or pergolas. We agree which existing features stay and how each new element connects before construction begins.
How much should we budget for a garden makeover?
Projects typically start at about £15,000, with a middle-sized garden often costing £15,000 to £20,000-plus. Access, excavation, chosen materials, drainage and the amount of construction all affect the final quote.
Can we keep useful parts of the existing garden?
Yes. We assess paving, walls, planting areas, boundaries and timber features to identify what can sensibly remain. Retaining a sound feature can guide the new layout, provided it doesn't compromise drainage, levels or access.
