Hardscaping Professionals in Seaview, Isle of Wight

“Our project was to develop a medium-sized garden, four miles from the Sussex coast, which faces south-west and suffers strong winds, lethal for many plant species, Barry Chambers of Changing Scenes, of Bognor Regis, successfully designed a colourful garden of raised flower beds, mature trees, large shrubs, a vegetable and sitting area and a stone beach with seaside plants, creating a frame for views across fields and glorious sunsets. The work was put out to tender to about five firms, with husband and wife team Keymer Landscapes, of Barnham, Bognor Regis, who I would also recommend, selected. Barry Chambers' knowledge of plants, and their survival in these conditions, is excellent, as is his ability to explain his choices without pretension. The construction and gardening was hands-on supervised by Barry who regularly returns, post-project, to add plants and check the progress of the garden and its maintenance. Amanda Pearce, Highleigh, Chichester.”

“I used Simon to design the front and back garden of my Victorian London terrace house. I can't rate him highly enough, from the initial meeting where he listened to what I was after through to the designs, ideas and tendering process, he was professional throughout and a joy to work with. Having used a different company before on another project, I would always go back to Simon now. The final result looks amazing and my wife and I are very very happy with it.”

“We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Andy Stedman Design, we could not be happier with the garden he designed and built for us. Andy worked with us to produce the initial design. He very quickly understood our requirements and produced a fabulous design that both met with the constraints of the plot and our exacting needs. We were then further impressed by Andy's post-design planning. He was able to demonstrate to us the process that would take us from the initial design through to completion. It was very professional and gave us complete confidence that he could deliver the garden of our dreams. Andy's landscaping team then carried out the works. Andy remained closely involved in the project on at least a daily basis, and he project managed extremely well. His team were friendly, respectful and polite, and a pleasure to have on site. The garden is complete now and is outstanding and I doubt very much that we would have achieved such an excellent result from another supplier. Andy's attention to detail was outstanding and ensured a quality of delivery that was far above anything we have experienced in the past. Andy Stedman Design gets the highest recommendation that we could possibly give to anyone. We wouldn't hesitate using them again. Martin and Marian Orchard-Webb Rousillon Park Chichester”

“C.A.R. Gardens designed, and built, me a contemporary town garden. Features included bespoke paving, raised planting areas, high-quality lighting scheme, one-off water feature design, audio and privacy considerations. To say the transformation process was a pleasure would be an understatement. Craig and his team were a dream to work with. I still walk into my garden two years on and think "wow"! I never imagined such a relatively small garden could have so much variety. C.A.R. Gardens are a quality outfit who I can recommend without hesitation.”

“Just had our second garden finished by Mark and the team. If you want a garden which is really creative and definitely unique, these are the people to design and build one for you. Can't wait for the summer to show off and enjoy my new garden.”

“What can I say about these guys? I’m just so delighted that we chose them to carry out our project! From start to finish they were brilliant. Communication & workmanship was exceptional and they’re all lovely, friendly people and a pleasure to have them in each day which was really important to us. Not only do we now have the garden we’ve always dreamed about but we’ve also met some great people and made new friends!”

“Wiles gardens have looked after our garden for a few years and we could not be more pleased with them. They are knowledgable and creative about plants and maintenance and on the odd occasion that hard planting works have been required they are entirely competant. They are pleasant, reliable and professional.”

“Professional, courteous and friendly. Tom installed a cedar slatted trellis around my courtyard garden. I've had numerous compliments on how good it looks. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again for future projects.”

“David has done an outstanding job on the complete overhaul of our garden. We did a significant refurbishment of our house and in the process the best parts of the garden were substantially destroyed whilst retaining the worst parts! David helped us from the original planning stage right through to the installation and now maintenance. The planning was very thoughtful, taking into account our preferences whilst continually bringing new ideas to the table. The plans he subsequently produced were very detailed and allowed us to get a real sense of what we were going to get. The plans were accompanied by detailed costings which have proved to be remarkably accurate as David works with nurseries with whom he has a long relationship with. The installation was a significant piece of work but David took charge of it, bringing in specialists where necessary but also doing much of the work himself and with a small team. This allows him to make adjustments to the plans where necessary to take into account the reality of what he finds on the site. During this process we were kept completely informed through regular phone and email contact, site visits and photos. The result is nothing short of spectacular - we could not be happier - and the work on the landscaping and garden has made the effort we put into the house even more worthwhile. I would unhesitatingly recommend David to friends and indeed have done so many times.”

“Helen Elks-Smith came to visit our garden on a very rainy day. After quite a long discussion on what we wanted to achieve, she then sat outside for almost two hours trying to understand what she could do to make our garden work within the harbour surroundings. She produced some initial drawings and made several suggestions that we had not considered and inevitably expanded the scope of what we were trying to do. Helen then arranged for other Companies to come in and build the garden and do the planting out. She made frequent visits along the way to make sure that everything was right for us. It was more than alright it was absolutely superb and she managed to interpret everything that we wanted and created an absolute triumph. We are truly delighted with what she and her Company have created, a legacy for the future.”
