Hardscaping Professionals in Nailsworth, Gloucestershire

“We engaged Waterside for a re-design of our garden. They combined some of our ideas with their experience and we agreed a start date and completion date. The work was carried out as agreed, on budget and on time! We are very happy with it and 6 months on would highly recommend Waterside for projects of varying size and complexity .”

“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.”

“Martyn Wilson designed our garden paying close attention to our original brief. We are delighted with the results and could never have created such a beautiful garden without him. He sourced local talented crafts people for bespoke pieces for the garden at prices to suit our budget. We would highly recommend his work”

“We knew on first meeting Miles that he understood our vision. He has a great eye and and has an amazing work ethic. The finished result exceeded expectation and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others. Worth every penny. We continue to enjoy our oasis of a garden he was integral in creating.”

“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!”

“AH Design Studio were excellent and very attentive/ helpful during the whole landscaping process. The garden looks amazing and exactly what we had imagined, but couldn't have achieved without Aubrey's insight and professionalism.”

“I cannot recommend Kirsty and her team at George-Stone Gardens Limited highly enough. A few years ago we had them in to redesign our back garden, install a composite deck and bridge as well as erect a gazebo. They were amazingly polite and efficient and did an amazing job. We are still loving the job they did and would have them do more when the time comes.”

“It is great to find a company which will do the mundane gardening as well as the new projects and bring their horticultural skills and professionalism to it all. I have been very happy with the way in which Emma has looked after several large village gardens over the last 3 or 4 years. Her team has come regularly and consistently and got on well with the occupiers of the houses (and their dogs!)”

“excellent team, nothing is too much to ask. willing to offer ideas if your own plans are lacking. highly recommended for both one-off projects and routine work.”

“The design included everything we wanted and more. The work was of a high standard and the people were hard working. helpful and really great fun. Everything was discussed thoroughly with us and it all was finished within the deadline given.”
