Garden Design/landscaping help

7 years ago

last modified: 7 years ago

Is there anyone in the West Yorkshire area available to pop down and advise on how to do the garden. Got an extension going on at the moment and considering garden options.
the garden has quite a slope downhill and is approx 8m wide with a porch built to the rear.
many thanks

Hi there,potentially a great project.You have a superb blank canvas from which to create a landscape. Freshscaped will be able to assist you,I am sure. Meanwhile,if you seek inspiration.....have a look on my website under Portfolio sections; Landscaping and Poolhouses. A recently completed job in Kent where we added woodland,a stream,wild meadow, an eco office,and a superb Marston & Langinger orangery type building. I would be more than happy to put forward some ideas that Freshscaped could develop, or indeed assist with any Interior Renovations you may be doing also. I am based in Surrey,and work in London & the home counties. Best of luck,and do drop me a line if I can be of any inspiration to you. www.bellawhiteleyinteriors.co.uk

I can't really tell from the pics how your neighbour's fence posts go in to the ground. That's the only sticky wicket. It looks like the retaining wall is purely inside the boundary and therefore, shouldn't affect the fence. You would ideally take away some of the bricks from near the bottom of the fence post to see how it's secured in to the ground. ( ie, I can't tell if the fence post is sitting on the wall, attached to it etc, it looks like it's behind it, but check ). Here's a good site on installing sleeper walls. wooden supplies.co.uk

Garden Design + Levelling / Sloping Garden Help
Q

Hi, we've recently purchased a new build house and we're struggling a bit with how to configure the garden due to the way it slopes. It's essentially just a 10m x 10m square at the moment with a few squares of pavement, and a slope from the top left towards the house and to the right fence. (see pics) We're trying to work with the level as much as possible to reduce the cost of levelling, and we're thinking of a deck in the top right (sunspot), and a raised lawn in the top left, with some steps and sleeper beds / steps around the garden to support it. (see drawing) Does anyone with any garden experience have any thoughts on how feasible something like this would be and how much it would roughly cost? Or any alternative ideas for the garden? We have a dog so a lawn is essential, and a deck or patio in the top right is pretty much a given for us. Any ideas/design tips would really be appreciated! We're looking for something quite modern, ideally with levels to create interest and reduce the levelling costs (if this even achieves that?)

Hi Ellie, ok I will edit it more as it should read we want all the shrubs and trees removed which is a tall feat when your not qualified I would guess. Also with the council not available to remove garden waste, we already have a lot piling up with the compost awaiting the date for when we can remove it. Our garden already has fence all the way around, however it needs updating as it has broken it a lot of places.
