One of our primary skills is drystone walling, which we offer to a range of audiences. Dry stone walling is an ancient method of wall crafting dating back thousands of years. Our highly skilled walling team offer quality dry stone walls around the region and beyond. You will be surprised how this ancient craft can be applied to a whole range of applications.

We offer a large range of landscaping solutions across Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and beyond that will complement any garden or outdoor space. From paving to turfing, walling to steps or a new or refurbished driveway we are confident that the services we offer are of the highest quality. We have highly skilled staff with many years of experience that can design and construct outstanding features to put character into your outdoor space.

The sound of running water can transport the human mind to another place… Whilst we may not be able to transport you to your destination, we can create a water feature both large, small, tranquil or a roaring torrent to create the effect you are looking for. Drawing inspiration from the moorland streams of Exmoor in the south west of England we can build your water feature to the highest quality whilst allowing it to complement its surroundings.

The creation of steps links two or more areas together, thus uniting your garden or outdoor space to create a smooth transition from one area to another. Steps can create an effortless method of ascending or descending gradients. Deep treads and shallow risers take all the effort out of using steps, whatever the ability of each and every person. Steps are an easier method of transcending a steep gradient.

Many older buildings were built using a lime mortar and these buildings should always be repaired or repointed using lime mortar to allow the building to release any moisture in its walls through evaporation. Unfortunately over the years cement mortars have been used to the greater detriment of many of these old buildings. We offer a high quality service across Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and beyond to repair or repoint old walls and buildings using lime mortars.

The first part of your home you normally see is your driveway. All too often it is one of the most overlooked aspects of the home estate. We offer a high quality service across Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and beyond to repair your driveway and restore it to an area that welcomes you home whilst complementing your house. We also install new driveways as sometimes a complete redesign of your driveway and surrounding area is required.

THE PROCESS

INTRODUCTION

The initial consultation is to introduce ourselves and what we can offer. We will listen and discuss your requirements and desired finish. For this we make no charge. Further visits are chargeable, however this would be deducted from the costings if we were to be commissioned to carry out the works.

EVOLUTION & DESIGN

We will design your garden to your requirements. This can be a simple outline sketch, or a full set of drawings, which would include, concept plans, scaled drawings, setting out plans, along with material samples. Basic sketches are not chargeable if we are commissioned to carry out the works. Full sets of drawings are chargeable, please enquire as to the costs. A full breakdown of costings are included with an itemised quotation along with our terms and conditions.

Some works do not require drawings, in this case we will work to the itemised quotation based on our discussions with you the client.

CREATION

We will create the garden the client desires to the design accepted, with you the client always in our mind. We are fully aware that we are creating something that is personal to yourself and with that in our minds, we have the upmost consideration for the client and neighbours making sure that the whole experience is quiet and smooth. We always leave our areas of work clean and tidy and minimise any disturbances as much as we possibly can. There is always someone to oversee the project and to liaise with, so you the client is never left unsure of anything.
