how it works
From Initial Consultation to Completed Garden
Every garden project starts with understanding the property, how the space will be used and what the homeowner wants to achieve. We then work through the design, materials, construction requirements and quotation before scheduling the landscaping work.
Our team manages the project through groundworks, installation and finishing, coordinating the different elements to deliver the agreed design.

A successful garden design needs to work with the property’s existing levels, access, drainage and the manner in which the garden will be used.
At Verdant, we bring the design and construction stages together. Our landscaping teams undertake the groundwork, paving, retaining walls, steps, lawns, decking and other features needed to complete the project.
By planning these elements together, we can coordinate materials, levels and construction details throughout the build, reducing the need for separate contractors and helping the finished garden work as a complete space.
PLANNING & PRACTICAL DESIGN
Why Good Garden Planning Matters
Before construction begins, it’s important to establish how the different areas of a garden will work together. Decisions about levels, drainage, access, materials and the position of patios, paths and retaining walls can affect both the appearance and practicality of the finished garden.
A considered layout can help make better use of the available space, whether that involves creating a larger seating area, improving access between levels or retaining existing features that are still suitable.
At Verdant, we approach garden design with construction in mind. By considering the practical requirements early, we can identify potential challenges, plan the sequence of work and develop a scheme that can be built efficiently.

Mike Grubb
The Verdant Landscapes Ltd team transformed our garden from a poorly utilised vegetable patch to raised beds with a solid base for a greenhouse. Over 4 days they put in a compacted base, built oak framed raised beds and cut in all the paving slabs to provide a path around the entire area before finally filling the beds with new topsoil. We’re very pleased with the transformation. We would happily use Verdant Landscapes again for future projects as they took real care with their work.
Liam Neill
I CAN’T recommend Verdant Landscapes enough. This was the second project they have done for me and thanks to the team they have delivered me my dream outdoor kitchen. I’ve wanted this for years and couldn’t be happier to have it and to have been finished to such a high standard. They replaced the steps to my house, the front patio, laid stones down the side, a new patio to the rear and raised patio complete with the outdoor kitchen. Quality of work is faultless and also an exceptionally nice team of guys that do the work that are a pleasure to have over.
Thanks so much 🙏
Robin Carder
Excellent experience all round.
Tom delivered a professional quote in line with other companies. We were scheduled at quick notice and despite weather delays we were regularly updated.
The team took great care and craftsmanship and were a pleasure to have around. Very neat and tidy..
Job- replace sleeper wall and 5 fence panels
Matt & Rose Arneaud
Absolutely superb effort and end result for our garden re-design project.
Couldn’t have been happier with the team that Tom had in place. On time everyday and worked solid days to get it completed on time. No issues or dramas, just a great experienced team who knew what needed to be done and got it done. The finished result was 10/10, and could not have asked for anything more.
It’s tricky when selecting builders for big jobs like this, but Tom demonstrated knowledge and confidence from the outset and proved it when he brought the team along.
The team at Verdant replaced a stone patio from our new build developers with a stunning Porcelain tile as well as created a new secondary patio around our garden office, and levelled all the grounds finishing with a an amazing premium quality artificial grass. Finished off with a top class veranda to give us plenty of shade and shelter from the rain! It was a big job, but they delivered and completed in under 2 weeks, which was astonishing.
Thank you Tom and Team, absolutely great job and would 100% recommend again and again.
Gail Deason

The team came and replaced an old fence with brand new one and also created a new decking area for me.
The team were so friendly and very hard working.
I would definitely recommend them and will be asking them back for future work that needs doing.
Charlie Clements
I highly recommend Tom and his team, they were amazing from start to finish.
Friendly and hard-working with a great customer focus and an eye to the smallest detail.
Nothing was too much trouble and they left the area tidy and clean eaxh day which was important to us and our pet.
The whole family is over the moon to finally have a useable garden to enjoy for the summer. Would highly recommend!

Tom and the team have completely transformed our garden! The result is amazing, we are so pleased and can't thank them enough. The whole team are both thoroughly professional and friendly and understanding, working tirelessly in transforming our vision into reality. Can't recommend them enough! Thank you team Verdant!
Angela Tolley
Well what can I say from start to finish these guys have been amazing!
Sean firstly, relaxed but professional on the first call and very quick at arranging a visit to look at the work to be done.
First meeting very friendly and put me at ease straight away.
There was lots of phone calls regarding work/quotes and questions and he took it all in his stride.
Part of the reason we decide on theses guys to do the job was that they gave us the clearest idea of what the garden was going to look like once finished.
After deciding on the company to do the work we meet Tom who over saw the whole job, and yes he was there everyday of the 6 week long transformation! Again professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
The team was made up with 2 more friendly chaps John and feluke and three worked none stop over the whole of the job, always there to answer my many questions and reassure me and my husband along the way. We cannot thank them enough for all there hard work and would recommend them to anyone!
They finished the job and the property was left spotless ( eg drive/ garage etc) great work and now to enjoy the summer!
Sarah Bullivant
Thank you so much to you all for your amazing hard work in transforming our garden. From start to finish you have been truly awesome. We could not of asked for a better service. Highly recommend Verdant to anyone. Thanks again.
PROJECT COSTS
How Much Does a Garden Design & Build Project Cost?
The cost of a garden design and build project depends on the size of the garden, the existing ground conditions, access, materials and the amount of construction required.
Projects involving significant excavation, drainage improvements, retaining walls or changes in levels will generally require more labour and materials than straightforward garden refurbishments. The choice of paving, decking, planting and other features will also influence the overall cost.
At Verdant, we prepare quotations based on the requirements of each project. Following an initial discussion and site visit where appropriate, we can establish the scope of work and provide a detailed quotation covering the proposed landscaping.

GARDEN DESIGN & BUILD FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a garden design before starting a landscaping project?
For substantial garden refurbishments, having a clear layout and agreed specification before construction begins is important. This helps establish the position of patios, pathways, steps, retaining walls, lawns and planting areas, as well as the materials and levels involved.
Not every project requires a detailed design package. We can discuss the appropriate level of planning based on the size and complexity of the work.
Can Verdant design and build my entire garden?
Yes. Verdant specialises in complete garden design and build projects, managing the work from initial planning through to construction and finishing.
Our landscaping teams undertake groundworks, drainage, paving, retaining walls, steps, raised beds, lawns, decking and other garden features. This allows the different elements to be planned and constructed as one coordinated project.
Can you work from a garden design prepared by another designer?
Yes. If you already have a garden design, we can review the drawings and discuss the construction work required.
Before providing a quotation, we may need to confirm dimensions, levels, materials, drainage and other practical details to ensure the proposed design can be constructed as intended.
How do you deal with sloping gardens and changes in level?
Gardens with significant changes in level require careful consideration of drainage, access, steps, retaining structures and the finished heights of patios and lawns.
We assess these factors during the planning stage and can incorporate retaining walls, raised areas, steps and other landscaping features into the proposed layout. Where structural design or specialist calculations are required, these need to be addressed before construction.
Can I choose the paving, materials and other features for my garden?
We offer design solutions for spaces of all sizes, from small garden corners to full landscape makeovers.Yes. Material selection is an important part of planning a garden project. We can discuss options for natural stone and porcelain paving, walling, decking, edging, fencing and other features.
We consider appearance alongside practical factors such as maintenance, slip resistance, drainage and suitability for the intended use. Materials and finishes can then be incorporated into the agreed project specification.
