Comments (46)Bearing in mind that you have young children, the focus of the garden in my opinion should be on them. A small patio/dining/relaxing area for adults near the house, and perhaps also at the end of the garden would be lovely. I would also have most of the garden redone in grass (real grass!) with room to play. And I would keep the fence... its the most practical having children near a river, even if they're not babies anymore. I would probably break up the unusual shape of the garden with a few pots, planters and borders 'sticking' out into the garden so the eye is drawn away from the sharp, narrow end. I agree with what was said above though about just living with the space for a bit and seeing how you use it....See Morerefurbishment project need help
Comments (6)With things like the kitchen, bathroom and layout you will need you builder to quote for the work but if you haven't already I would recommend you get a designer or space planner on board at an early stage to make sure you get these key areas designer correctly for you and your space. As well as helping with trade discounts, an interior designer would be able to help with the styling, flooring, heating and over all design of the space helping to avoid costly mistakes down the line and making sure your project is thought about as a whole from start to finish - ending on budget and to dead lines. Choosing a designers it's more about personality. You want someone who can convey you and your needs and style so you need to click with your designer and find someone who can help you do that whilst being on the same wave length as you throughout your project. I hope that helps. All the best, Gina...See MoreNeed a Garden Designer and Landscape Gardener for a garden re-design
Comments (9)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....See Morejeannief53
