We design terrace gardens that create clear zones for dining, planting and relaxing without wasting precious square metres. Expect robust retaining walls, smart steps and safe access, plus drainage that protects paving and planting. The result is a garden that works as hard as your home does.

Most terrace garden builds take 2–6 weeks on site, depending on excavation, retaining wall construction and the number of levels. A straightforward two-level layout with paving, steps and planting may be completed in 2–3 weeks. More complex schemes with drainage upgrades, lighting, irrigation and bespoke seating typically take 4–8 weeks. Access restrictions, skip permits, weather, and lead times for stone or timber can affect the programme.
Many garden landscaping works are permitted development, but terracing can trigger checks where there are significant level changes, boundary walls, or drainage alterations. If your property is listed, in a conservation area, or the work affects shared structures, extra permissions may apply. We review your site, advise on likely requirements, and can help with drawings and specifications for any applications. We also consider party wall matters where relevant.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our workmanship for core construction elements such as retaining walls, steps, paving installation and built seating, provided the garden is used and maintained as advised.

If an issue arises, we respond quickly and arrange remedial works where covered.
