Patio Design Professionals in Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset

“We have been working with Terrey and the Outerspace team for almost 10 years now, and always find them a pleasure to deal with. They are extremely professional, excellent communicators and their work and garden schemes are always thoughtful and creative. We don't hesitate in recommending their services.”

“Claire of Iron Butterfly Design is an exceptional garden designer with a fabulous eye for detail as well as deep knowledge and expertise about plants. She is clearly passionate about her work and this shines through in her work ethic and dedication to the job. We were very fortunate to find Claire last year (our garden is the Childs Hill courtyard garden featured on her website) when we were doing major renovation work and she immediately stood out from other garden designers we interviewed . Not only was her fee very reasonable, she was also happy to work to our budget and tailor the project to our requirements. She came up with a fantastic design that would work in our tricky awkward-shaped garden and she was patient when explaining things to us (complete garden novices). She was always respectful of our preferences while at the same time not being afraid to give advice and feedback. Claire sourced and spec-ed hard and soft landscaping materials for us, designed custom built-in storage benches and presented her designs beautifully, with great attention to detail. She was 100% reliable and punctual, very resourceful in finding alternatives if we asked her to, and very flexible. She was also very considerate of our house and ensured that it remained clean - no mean feat when carrying plants, compost etc through the living room! Claire totally transformed our back garden from a drab and depressing space to a beautiful zen-like courtyard retreat. It is now our favourite space in the house. Claire is now based in Bristol but lucky for us, she still recently found the time to come back all the way to London to do some maintenance work on our garden, as well as transform our front garden too ! We think her willingness to go the extra mile says it all. Friends and family who come to visit always ask us who designed our garden. Not only is Claire a talented, reliable and hardworking garden designer, she's also a lovely, friendly and approachable person! We can't recommend her highly enough.”

“Our garden was a sad and unwelcoming space until it was transformed through Al’s innovative and creative design. His professional approach to turning his ideas into the completed project has achieved more than we could have hoped for. Thanks to Al and his team, we now have a garden where it is a joy to spend time and to entertain friends and family alike. A garden that can be appreciated every day from both inside and outside the house ‘’.”

“Rob is awesome. He has great vision and knowledge of all things garden related but is also on hand and available to help the garden plan become a reality by managing the process through till you have a beautiful flourishing outdoor space. Top guy !”

“When we met Steve we didn't really know where to start with our garden, having very little funds to work with upfront Steve encouraged us to focus our money into a final design that we could work towards. We were fortunate enough to have seen some of his work in person and were hooked on his creativity and eye for design. Biodiversity and ecology were really important to us having two small children and living in a busy city, we needed a space that will grow and evolve with us and this is something that Steve is extremely passionate about. As a designer, he listened and understood our needs, concerns and urge to use reclaimed materials where possible. He has introduced us to so many exciting ideas when the time finally comes to start planting. He's a pleasure to have on-site, professional and respectful. I'm really looking forward to completing this design and living in our new space. Thank you Steve!”

“We use Laurence to design our projects as we find he listens to our clients and will design a garden to their needs and budget. He has a good idea of the cost implications and the practical side of how the garden is to be constructed. The drawings he produces are second to none and not only can the client picture the garden we can build within 10mm of the drawing and it will work. He has great vision and we would recommend his skill to anyone undertaking a landscaping project”

“Both Lisa and I are absolutely delighted and so are the children with the transformation of our Garden. Thank you, Chris and the team. Not only was the team professional in all aspects of work, they worked with us from an idea perspective to transform the end of our garden into a children's area and separate seating area for us. Perfect!”

“Eliza took a hugely positive and encouraging approach to her garden design work, and was a pleasure to work with. The project had two stages: initial and final, both of which were quoted in advance for price and timescales, and were delivered to the price and on time. The result was highly imaginative and interesting, and our garden attracts praise from everyone who visits us. We are still pleased with what we have and it has stood the test of time. We were recommended a choice of two contractors, and we got quotes from both and chose one of them. The implementation was good, but was let down by taking a very long time and poor pointing on the paving. A lot of this was caused by the weather (sustained torrential rain) and was really outside of Eliza's control. If there was anything that was less than perfect, it was the choice of some of the plants and their location. There were some tall plants that we ultimately failed to keep standing upright because of the wind (we are at the top of a hill). We had been hoping for more all year round plants and less that die down in the winter, but we knew very little at the time, and have since altered the mix a bit. However, we remain fully satisfied with the bit that is difficult to change, namely the hard landscaping.”

“We are very pleased that we chose Artisan to remodel our garden. Artisan's design addressed our requirements and improved the garden both aesthetically and practically. We chose an oak frame and kebony for the deck, with porcelain paving and reclaimed local stone facing for the retaining wall. Artisan's design and excellent craftsmanship shows these materials off well. The planting scheme was also very well considered and executed. It has been a delight to see it emerge and flower over the last year.. All the Artisan staff were enthusiastic, tidy, considerate of us, our neighbours and our neighbourhood. The project was very well managed and ran in accordance with the project plan and staged payment scheme. Communication was good and there were regular progress meetings throughout the work. Minor concerns were addressed promptly. The project was completed to the cost agreed at the outset. We are delighted with the result.”

“Isabel was instrumental in the successful design of several projects across Bournemouth University including the award winning buildings: Bournemouth Gateway Building & Poole Gateway Building as well as the linking landscaping across the Talbot Campus. The professionalism and huge design experience at Rennie Landscape Design is abundant. I'd particularly highlight the positives of great listening skills and the ability to implement and coordinate complicated design issues and changes due to budget amendments. Great work!”
