About This Project
When we first saw this garden it was bare ground under tarps, and the family told us they'd more or less stopped using it. It was uneven and a pain to keep on top of. What they wanted was straightforward: somewhere low-maintenance they could actually sit out in, spring through autumn.
We re-levelled the whole garden and put down a proper compacted base, then laid a sandstone patio off the back of the house for the table and seating. Where the worn-out lawn had been, we fitted artificial grass that stays green and doesn't turn to mud over winter.
Timber sleeper beds run along the boundary for a bit of height and some planting, without the upkeep of full borders. A new summerhouse gives them somewhere to use at the far end of the garden, and we added a sail shade over the seating with a few planted pots to soften it. It's a garden they tell us they're back to using properly now.

“We couldn't be happier with the experience we received from Nottingham Landscape Services. From start to finish, Aaron and his team were professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. Aaron listened closely to what we wanted, offered creative suggestions, and brought everything to life even better than we imagined. The quality of their work is outstanding with precise attention to detail and a beautiful design that truly stands out. Our garden, for a long time, hasn't been somewhere where we have wanted to spend any time, now we love everything about it and it really has given us another area to relax. I highly recommend Nottingham Landscape Services to anyone looking for landscaping that transforms your space and adds real value to your home.”
