Make a list of the garden design requirements that you have. What you expect to get from your garden. How much you would realistically want to spend on the build, etc. The look you require. Any storage you may require, ie. garden furniture, equipment, bicycle storage etc. Boundary areas, walls and fences may need to be discussed with your neighbour? Think about lighting, having the option to use the garden in the evening should be seriously considered. Your garden designer should be able to advise on any issues that require planning permission, etc. Although the necessary paperwork is usually required to be completed and submitted by the home owner. Along with a list of your requirements and, after looking at your existing garden your garden designer will be able to estimate a building cost in conjunction with a landscape contractor. We work across London and the home counties. Including contemporary, small, city, roof terrace & decking garden design ideas.
Cost of Garden Design
The cost of commissioning a garden design will vary from garden designer to garden designer. Factors such as qualification, experience, reputation, awards won etc will have an impact on the charge that different garden designers can make for their services. Discuss with the garden designer and ask what their chosen method of designing and presentation is and what services you should expect in return for their fee. We work from anywhere in central London, outer london, the home counties and nationally. Including contemporary, small, city, roof terrace & decking garden design.
The size of your garden will also have an impact on the cost. Although it doesn’t always follow that smaller gardens cost less! Often smaller urban or city gardens require a greater amount of garden design solutions! The restrictions of urban and city living often require garden designers to be clever with design solutions and space saving options but without losing design impact or structure.
