Full garden design and build in New Malden
Carole and Alan's garden in New Malden had been started by a previous contractor. We took over, took out everything that had been done, designed the garden in 3D and rebuilt it from the ground up: a yellow balau hardwood deck, around 50m² of 60x90 Egyptian limestone, around 30m² of block paving, large walls and steps mostly in brick, and white silicone render. Five weeks, £44,000 including VAT, all supplied and installed.

Where we started
The brief
Carole and Alan came to us after work had been started by a previous contractor. Everything that had been done had to come out before the garden could be built properly.
We designed the new garden in 3D so the levels, walls, steps and materials were clear before building started. It is a good example of the landscaping in New Malden, decking in New Malden and garden walls in New Malden we take on.
