Laura & Dan contacted MH Landscapes to help them transform their rear garden. Their initial specification was to take back the oversized flower beds to give a more modern and manageable space.
Hollie worked closely with Laura to create a concept which would require much less maintenance and offer them more useable areas to enjoy.
MH Landscapes designed a raised terrace across the entire rear of the house with contrasting surfaces which clearly defined the zones of the space.
Composite decking for the lounging area will be warm under bare feet together with porcelain paving for the dining and bbq area, which is wipe clean in case of spilled food or drink.
They also had a special barbecue that they were keen to include in this area, so we designed and built them a bespoke work station to integrate it and added storage cupboards underneath.
At the top end of the garden we took back the flower beds and removed the brick laid path to provide them with a larger lawn area and more a manageable planting scheme. Finally, we installed a concrete base to support a new hot tub and completed a lighting scheme to provide them with soft lighting in the evenings.
At the initial discussions Matt completely understood what we were trying to achieve, the designs from Hollie were perfect the first time and then the final look to our transformed garden is exactly what we had hoped for!
It’s gone from a garden that was not to our taste or manageable for our level of “green fingers” to a gorgeous modern space perfect for entertaining (when we are allowed to again!!).
During the work itself the team were fantastic, ready to answer all our daft questions as we went along and flexible with a couple of small additions we asked for. Also they were fantastic with our dog (who likes to say hello to everyone each morning!) which was a real plus for us.
Very happy customers!
