Patio and hard landscaping design
Patios and paths in stone, porcelain or block, laid on a full bed.
Garden Landscaping
We design and build gardens around how you'll actually use them — patios for entertaining, planting that's easy to maintain, and layouts that work with the shape of the plot.
Landscaping is often scheduled alongside an extension or renovation so the outside is finished to the same standard as the inside.

What's Included
Design through to build, including the groundwork and drainage that decides whether it still looks right in three winters.
Patios and paths in stone, porcelain or block, laid on a full bed.
Planting schemes and turfing chosen for the light the garden gets.
Levels, retaining walls and steps where the plot slopes.
Drainage and soakaways so the garden doesn't sit under water.

Our approach
A north-facing London garden overlooked on three sides is not the garden in the magazine, and planting it as though it were is how people end up replacing everything two summers later.
We start from the aspect, the soil and how much time you actually want to spend maintaining it, then design something that will still look deliberate when it has grown in.

FAQ
Find simple answers to all your common queries about organizing, budgeting, managing, and finishing London house remodels.
Depending on the size, state, specification, structural work, design needs, and finish level of the property, a complete London house makeover typically costs between £1,500 and £3,000 or more per square metre. Listed buildings, large renovations, high-end materials, and central London sites can drive up costs noticeably. A thorough property survey and written quote offer the most sensible projection.
The scope of the project, approvals, state of the property, material availability, and number of trades engaged all affect timelines. Renovations of a single room could last a few weeks; those of an entire house could span several months. Before construction starts, a thorough schedule should be decided.
Yes. We arrange surveys, design, authorizations, structural work, plumbing, electrics, construction, installations, decoration, and ultimate finishing. Our knowledgeable building crew helps to simplify communication, maximize cooperation between trades, and offer homeowners one point of contact during the makeover.
Look for good insurance, good references, recent work samples, clear written estimates, experience, and communication. Confirm what is covered, how deviations are handled, the likely timescales, amounts of payment, and who authorises. Value, quality, structure and dependability are also highly important, so don’t only opt for the lowest price
Many internal changes don’t call for planning permission. But extensions, significant outside modifications, loft conversions, listed structures, and homes in conservation zones might need listed building permission or planning permission. Even in cases where planning permission is not needed, Building Regulations approval may be important. Before work starts, requirements should be checked with the relevant London borough.
We flag anything unexpected as soon as we find it, explain the options and costs, and agree the way forward with you before continuing.
Yes. Our workmanship is guaranteed, and manufacturer warranties on materials and fittings are passed on to you at handover.
Often yes, depending on the work. We'll discuss which rooms stay usable, keep the site tidy and phase the work to limit disruption.
